I'm closing in on 11k and I've had no major issues. I've taken it in for the idle issue and GPS signal, but that's it. One small ding on the hood, no accidents. *knocks on wood*

I just hit 16,000 a couple weeks ago and the only issues I'm having are the occasional burning oil smell issue caused by a plate on the backside of the passenger side cylinder head and I just noticed some moisture in one of the taillights. I had the chirping from the fuel pump but that has gone away in the last week or two.

and the shitty GPS that never gets signal, but I know there's a fix already.

Your dealer should have the stuff from SOA for it (though I literally had to go through SOA to tell my dealer to look for the fix). They reposition your GPS antenna (in the dash) and put in an updated SD card. Fixed my issue.

8000 miles.
Idle chirp.
Tail light condensation on the passenger side.
Rear deck pop when the body flexes.

9000 Miles:
Chirping fuel pump
Occasional stumble at idle
Condensation in tail light

I am taking it in tomorrow to have all three looked at. The chirp and idle issue have been present since almost new, but the condensation is new, and the real reason why I am taking it in.

15000 Miles:
  • Condensation in tail lights
  • GPS Antenna Issue / Nav Software needed to be updated
  • Chirping fuel pump
  • Rear deck pop

Im pretty much same as you, right around 5700.

I dont care about the chirp or the deck pop, and I have no interest in getting the GPS fixed since I dont use it very much and dont want the programming to mess with my VIM bypass.

Only difference is ive had a taillight replaced due to condensation, but that was no big deal.

This. There's a TSB out for it, check this thread and grab the "Navigation/GPS Antenna Changes" PDF, that has all the info your dealer needs to fix it.

My driver's side window clicks and squeals when past about 50% down :/ Need to take it in the get looked at.

A shade over 7k miles...
  • Condensation in both tail lights
  • GPS Antenna Issue / Nav Software needed to be updated
  • Chirping fuel pump
  • Rear deck pop (metal shelf and cover dynamatted w/positive results)
  • Tapping/flapping noise in passenger rear wheel well section at speeds of 50mph+

Just passed 5k this weekend. No real issues.

-Had tail lights replaced for condensation
-Have chirp, not really bothered/worried
-Shitty GPS is shitty
-Paint seems to chip very easily which bugs me.
