That's going to make it tougher--maybe impossible--to get a refund. Apparently, they did fix some legitimate leakage by replacing the hoses. Leaks at the hoses wouldn't be all that surprising given the age of a Trailblazer at this point.

PS fluid and axle lube NEVER need to be "topped-off" unless there's a leak. Brake fluid can be topped-off, but SHOULDN'T be, because low brake fluid indicates that the disc brake pads are worn. Adding fluid screws-up this warning of pad wear. Brake fluid should be FLUSHED and fully refilled at pad-change time, and then left alone until the next pad replacement. (or flushed and then refilled only to the level it was before, if the fluid gets contaminated.)
"Topped-off" does not mean that the fluids were "relatively new". MOST of the fluid would be "old", with only a small proportion of "new" fluid added. Getting "new" fluids requires draining the old stuff; you'd have been charged extra for flushing the various fluids.
