It sucks but lt is what it is and I know it sucks
A dealership service manager absolutely should know of every TSB for every car they sell at the very least, and at least one or more of the OP's complaints have a TSB.

Your comment reminds me of a visit to a Honda service manager for a post-flood related symptom(no hydro-lock). He mentioned to me that I should never be driving my 8000rpm redline '00 civic Si at or past 6000rpm...ever. He was dumbfounded and speechless when I told him about VTEC and how it it starts at 5800rpm.

The point I am getting at is that this guy clearly had no clue about the products he oversees the service of, AND demonstrated a complete lack of even general automotive knowledge(when he was equally shocked at learning how to calculate mpg!!, I'm not joking).

You find these imbeciles everywhere. Nobody should be making excuses for them, and you definitely should expect more from them. OP, print out the necessary TSB's listed this section of the forum and bring it back. Try not to make them feel too stupid, or you'll be one of the roasted tire club.
