1. Fuel-pump Chirping mine is intermittent but it started up last night, I have about 1096 miles on it. I ONLY use 93 octane and have only used Shell/Chevron. Is it worth getting this fixed since it doesn't seem to be going away even for those with numerous fuel pump changes?
2. Rear driver side "clack" "harsh click" noise when driving hard, turning hard Only noticed this once or twice, haven't been able to recreate it. I notice a clack/click sound almost as if a penny is falling onto metal in the rear side of my car. I think it's the rear decklid thing. Heard this can be fixed but also inevitably returns. Worth the fix?
3. Idle dip/engine shudder, intermittent about a handful of times I've gotten a strange idle dip/engine shudder either when coming to a stop and it happens around 25mph (whilst coming to a stop) or when completely idle at stop. Idle will dip below 800rpm then back up to about 1100 rpm then to normal idle. The other issue seems to be as stated during stopping, engine will make a strange shudder-noise like if it's stalling? Not sure...doesn't seem to really affect anything.
4. Beginning condensation in tail-lights most noticeable after washing my car, I get MINIMAL condensation right around the top edge of the tail lights going around the rim. Has anyone gotten this successfully fixed?
So far no other issues, I drive my car like a grandma would 95% of the time and have only laid down on it a handful of times.
No mods currently stock.
Any known fixes or TSB's that they will fix and honor without complaint?

I have the same issues that you mention on my 2013 except the Rear driver side "clack" "harsh click" noise. I'm sure the TSB should be the same as 2013.
The chrip noise still cannot be fix, i bring my car in today and the service guy told me that there is no fix however, he said its has better insulation. They have TSB for this.
For the tail-light condensation, the dealership will fix it for you and yes they have a TSB on that too.
For the RPM dip, its seem like its hard for them to see what happen because it does not happen all the time. They did see the RPM dip and was told it was normal but they did not feel any shaking/stalling while the RPM dip, so they cannot do anything about it. (Possibly the HPFP cause it.... idk?)
Hope this help. I Will get my car back tomorrow and see "If" everything got fixed.
