A few questions

I was wondering if anyone else on the forums had the same problems as my car. The first one is that the front bumper is misaligned under the passenger side headlight. Mine actually has popped up in front of the light! What does the dealer to to fix this?

The second problem is that every so often, when I am accelerating or turning, I hear a clunking noise from the back (I assume the suspension??). What is this noise, and do you think the dealer will have trouble finding it since it is an intermittent problem.

The third problem is also intermittent. It is a rattling from behind the glove compartment. Happens occasionally when going over frost heaves and rough pavement.

Any feedback on these issues would be appreciated.

the first 2 are known issues. I dont know what they will do about the alignment but they will fix the clunking noise.

I had that rattle from behind the glove box. Turned out to be the defroster hose vibrating against the rear of the dash. I wrapped a piece of foam around hose, problem solved!
