Re: Very little to lose?
The woman who won the case against Honda might disagree with you. Her win has now become a national issue that will probably change the game for reporting of mileage figures. You might want to read this article: http://jalopnik.com/5881661/how-honda-fought-heather-peters-in-small-claims-court. Lawdevil, it sounds like you might have approved of Honda's approach to the case, but it apparently didn't work.
I don't think you can assume anything in small claims court if you're well-prepared and have a decent case. It's sort of like the person who takes their car to the dealer, asks for a "goodwill adjustment" and is pleasantly surprised to get a free repair from the manufacturer. A different person might have gone in there and remained silent, assuming there would be no goodwill offered. The woman with the Honda could have dismissed the idea of a small claims suit, assuming she couldn't possibly win.
If you don't ask, you don't get.
