Granted the car only has under 45k miles but still. At that point you might as well put new plugs in, now you have a 1000 dollar plus job just to test the health of the engine. If you disagree let me know

I have never heard of a spark plug breaking inside the head. How do you figure that would happen? And I bet that they have been replaced before. Spark plugs are cheap and very easy to replace on your car. I bet that a comp test and spark plug replacement will run you less than 500 bucks.
Good luck.
