That's a load of crap . Any shop that has the capability can clear the code . Apparently that shop does not . They just told her that because they could not do it .

That being said if a problem has been solved ( I hope they did fix it )after so many key cycles the code will clear ( this is there reason for the 100 miles ) . This is in place in case a temporary problem show up . It will clear itself .

One solution to your problem is take it to one of your local auto chain stores . They will read your code for you but will not clear it . They will hand you the reader for you to clear . Liability reasons . You may want to go with her to get this done .
