Here is a follow-up ---
I contacted the sales guy who is now the sales manager. I explained that calipers don't normally do this unless the car is much older or has many more miles on the car. That there are two things in play:
1. Caliper slide is so rusty that the pad was not moving and in that case it was most likely in bad shape when they sold me the car. The CPO inspection should have seen such a thing.
2. The TSB is valid and the part about the unusual wear on the right, inner pad is at fault.
He agreed and was going to talk with the service manager. After my phone call I emailed a copy of the TSB.
Just had a call from the service manager and he said that the TSB hit the ail on the head and he agrees with my assessment. He's going to order the parts to fix the issue and order pads, will call me when they arrive.
If you read the TSB the premature wear of that inner pad covers a lot of years and a lot of cars.
Watched the vid and I'm big on using synthetic grease and I liberally use it. Making sure not to get it on pads, etc.
