I had (in order of severity) on my '06 GT:

1) 1 spark plug broken off in the head.
2) Noisy strut mounts fixed with redesigned mounts.
3) Interior rattles from the door panel handle access cover plates.
4) Scratched window tint

- My front end thunked, a tiny bit. They fixed it no problem.
- My diff pack was groaning, a tiny bit. they fixed it no problem.

Idare say both items were not real issues but hey, make any use of warranty you can !

- Right kick panel shows no sign of water ingress.
- No paint bubbles.
- Shaker500 was fine before i removed it.
- Gas gauge works fine.
- Battery never goes flat.
- Haven't taken the plugs out yet but I don't anticipate an issue, they were swapped out 1500 miles ago and the oldwere fine then.
- Gas tank neck allows fuel in.


Now I've formally declared all thatI guess I'll be hit with a plethora of problems next time out. [:@]

The only issues I have with my '06 is that the head light switch housing rattles a bit. Took me forever to figure out where it was comming from so now I will fix it this weekend.

The second is my tint gets scratched when I roll down the windows but this too will get fixed this weekend!
Moleskin before you re-tint, Taco Bill has a write up on it.
Already have it.... ofcourse right after I paid over $30 and alreeady recieved it someone else posted a place for under $10[:@]

So far I've had a new battery after owning it 1 week, water leak fixed, new bearing seal in ac compressor and it's in the shop now getting the gears in the rear axle replaced. Got the front end thunk but they won't fix it until it gets bad enough for them to notice it. Less than 16k miles. Glad I got the extended warranty, looks like I may need it down the road. Still love the car though and never plan to get rid of it.
