So, I've got a few things wrong..

Well, lets start with when I bought my car; which was some time in the middle of May.

It's a 2008 LS.

The things wrong are as follows..

1. The mirror of the passenger side is loose. You can literally take your hand and jiggle it back and forth, that's how bad it is. I do not mean the black housing connecting to the car, I'm talking about the mirror itself.

2. On the driver side, when I'm driving; I can hear like air rushing in through the window some where. It's like that rubber lining isn't exactly lined up correct.

3. The bottom of my passenger side door isn't flush with the rest of the car, where as the driver side is. It was not caused by anyone slamming the door or anything because there is not one scratch, or even a nick.

Drive side (good)


Passenger side (bad; notice how it sticks out)


Basically I know my car is under warranty, but are these things the stealership can fix?

depends on your mileage. but you should have no problems getting that all covered under warranty. just be nice to your dealer and they will be nice to you

Alright cool.

I've got under 5k, I don't remember the exact mileage.

What will they do about that door though.. I really don't understand how it even happened.

For all I know, it could have been like that when I got it, but just didn't notice it.

Well actually the door thing isnt really an issue. My dad is a bodyshop manager at a GM dealership and people have that complaint all the time. Fact is its supposed to be like that, so the edge doesnt get chipped from road debris and it also helps with wind noise.

It just depends on how the worker aligned the door. All I kno is its suppoesed to be like that, My G5 has it my friends G5 has it and my parents and aunt Torrent's have it.

mine doesn't have it. sure the doors are out a tad for the wind noise issue but not like that. all i would do is have them look at it and go from there.
