-The transmission was a little jumpy and wandering before that but now seems to have gotten a lot better since the previously mentioned ecm re-flash. It doesn't "search" for the next gear anymore really.
-Trim around the shifter popped up a little after one of the clips in the console broke for no reason.
-At start-up, sometimes I have a loud whining sound, more like an electrical whine though, but goes away once i start driving. It never caused an issue and in the times it was at the dealer, no one ever brought it up, so I don't care.
-Last week the A/c needed to be recharged already so it must have leaked out over the fall/winter/spring.
Remember, I got mine in Dec 2010, (almost 20k miles soon) so it's one of the first batch out and bound to have some issues. But I am still very satisfied with my decision to get this car. Its comfortable, fun to drive, better on gas than my other cars, and reliable.
And since mine is a lease, I'm not too concerned about its longevity. It just needs to stay running/driving until March 2014. Haha
