Dealership Visit:
1: Drivers window motor dead (Thankfully with window up)
2: Grease Streaks on same window.
3: Rear axel making a noise (PING)
4: Front Tire ROAR
5: Driver leather seat fading.
Getting close to 30K with my 03 really trying not to sell this beauty but its only 6K left before all these expenses would be out of pocket.
At least the dealer is being cool.
Everything was covered under warranty, just have to wait till next week for all the parts to come in.
Figured I would share my experience after 2 years with my baby.

I feel your pain; purchased my '05 Touring in June and brought the car to the dealership last week because the tire pressure gauge kept going off despite inflating my right rear tire (which the psi on the gauge claimed to be decreasing) several times. Also, I have grease streaks on my windows. My dealer was cool and decided to reset the tire gauge, ordered a part to eliminate the grease streaks and provided my first service and ordered some super black paint for a few minor chips on the front grille at no charge.
Unfortunately, on Saturday, the tire gauge alarm went off again and my right rear tire is decreasing in pressure (psi at 24, although the wheel seems properly inflated). Back to the dealership this week.
Other than that, I love the car, and I am sure that this tire gauge issue will be solved. I leased the car for 42 months, so I am not stressing any minor issues.

one of the unfortunate side-affects of switching to all this digital stuff is the bugs that can pop up. I am a little unsure about all of this drive-by-wire, digital a/c controls, etc etc..
My brother bought himself a G35, it was one of the first G35s ever shipped to the lot they week they came out in '02. It had to go back several times because the digital a/c controls started getting a mind of their own and turning the heater on randomly, switching from cd to radio by itself, changing volume on its own, etc. just makes me nervous thinking about what might happen if my throttle suddenly decided that I wanted to step on it when I'm at a red or something.
These things have seemed to have gotten better as they mature, but still...
My 1985 ZX is nice and analog, and I know nothing will happen unless I make it happen.

I am also having some issues with my rear passanger side tire.
I loose some pressure 10psi over the course of 2 weeks driving.
If there is no hole in the tire do you think dealer would cover checking the tire ?
I just afraid I am going to hear I need new rear tires... that i have to pay out of pocket for.
