Warranty Work!

Haha... Well, my lovely 39,000 mile warranty is almost up. I dropped the car off today with 38,996 miles.

I'm having them replace:
1. The CD Player (CD's won't Eject - this will be my 4th CD player from them)
2. The Silver door panels that surround the Power Windows buttons, etc because the silver is rubbing/chipping off.
3. The Rims! Because the Gunmetal/Chrome is pitted/chipping off with no curb damage.
4. The E-Brake Handle... because you can pull the e-Brake up... but when you Push the button in to put the handle down; the button doesn't go in... the e-Brake Sleeve slides up!
5. I've got an Exhaust leak that I am having them look at... I think the flange on the GMPP Exhaust has started to curl back at the top where it meets the Downpipe flange... allowing exhaust to leak out. It's stealing some serious HP from me.

I couldn't think of anything else for them to replace... but I've got 2 days to think about problems before they have time to work on it. (I decided it'd be best for me to leave it there with them... so I don't drive it over 39,000 !)

If anyone can think of anything else... TYPICAL Cobalt stuff that I might be able to have done... remind me. I know there has got to be something I'm missing!

Tell them to check:

    Those are things that come to mind. Of course, Mine has been in for every single one of these things at least three times or more. Your call.
