Warranty Work!

[t3ase]

YAY! We all know I love warranty work, so I'm going in again for more! WOOHOO!#

This time:
1) Replace CV axle (Again - Busted)
2) Replace headunit (Again - Locking up problem)
3) Replace steering wheel (1st Time - Black finish wearing off)
4) Burning rubber smell (1st Time - Coming through A/C vents, even with A/C disengaged. Only smells when car is idling.)
5) Replace window trim (Again - Different location than the other time, however.)
6) Grease front suspension (1st Time - Suspension noise when it's cold.)
7) Coolant leak (Again)
8) Small oil leak

~25k Miles; 7mths old.

(Edit: BTW, this is more for my information so I can look it up tomorrow when I'm at the dealership. I'm not bitching or ranting, so don't start, mmmkay?)

man what is up with your car t3ase? you seem to have more problems than anyone.

Lately, I'll say that it's from a lot of miles in a short time and that I drive the car harder than most do. Before that when I had my whole list of stuff going on, I wasn't as hard on the car and STILL had an enormous list of stuff wrong. I dunno man... My mom's LX has had zero issues.

Man, if you can get them to replace your steering wheel because the finish is wearing off, be sure and let me know! I would be shocked if that's covered under warranty! Thanks.

That sucks, good luck. Dealers don't like me and I hate them. I have around 22K and I beat up on the car everyday, it's hard not to, and I don't have any problems that I know of.

actually, i just remembered the bolts on my turbo were stripped but ofcourse i didn't go to the sorry ass dealer to get it fixed.

It was done, but then again, I'm really cool with my dealer.

The black leather wrap on the wheel had literally worn down to the wheel itself.
