Pity complaints, I know. Honestly, if that's all I can complain about then I made the right choice buying this car.

how many miles do you have? Im at around 10,400 but as soon as i hit 10k with the oem fluids it felt a lot better than it did with lower miles. Now that i flushed and went with redline it's great.

I'm sitting at around 12,500 miles. It tends to act up when the car is cold. Whenever it warms up it shifts into 2nd fine.

One little annoyance that's starting to bug me is how the odometer buttons and the trunk release buttons aren't illuminated. WTF? Everything else on the car is illuminated, but you picked 4 buttons just to cheap out on? Now I can't reset my trip odometer in the dark.

+1 for dash controls not lighting up.
+2 for 2nd being a slut when cold.

Windows auto-jam crap, and the offset of the rear stock wheels.

But that's all I have to complain about, extremely happy owner

I might have to give her a good pounding

On a more serious note, I might just end up changing the tranny fluid.

I'm over 6000 miles and yes it's better than it was in the beginning, so I guess at 10k miles it will be fine.

Anyway, I LOVE the car

The occasional studdery start-up. I'm inclined to believe nothing is wrong with my car, but a brand new car shouldn't struggle to start, even if it's random and infrequent. I don't like being nervous about my car.

Mine does it too. I tell myself the same thing. "It's new, It's fine!" But really I am disappointed.

My Honda Ridgeline, which I also bought new, starts EVERY time and is 8 years old now with 140k.

Hate the cloth seats... they already stink of ball sweat... good thing I ordered some covers.

SirBrass · 11-15-2013, 06:27 PM

Eh... Hate the torque dip & crappy tires. That's about it.
