So how are the 2014s holding up?

[Moe23]

Ive had my 2014 for almost 4 months, so far ive had to change my high pressure fuel pump, and tail lights. But i have to say it an odd car, weird noises sometimes i hear some knocking when i go over a bump but not always. thankfully nothing major, but i hope nothing else needs replacing. other than that i love it

Just hit 4000 miles on my '14, production date of 8/13.
I have:
Fuel pump chirp
Obnoxious rear deck and dash rattles

haven't had tail light condensation, rear deck popping, window issues, rough idle, or transmission grinding that seem common with this car.

Even though the rattles drive me crazy I can't complain, it's holding up well so far.

I have a '13 here….ZERO issues, but crickets. Mine come and go. I had them right at the beginning, then they left after about a month, then back again in december and gone again in January. I'm not worried about it really. They are familiar friends when they come back

Taking 1+ month to repair.

Whaaaaaaa!?

Put the passenger window down when backing out yesterday morning to check for traffic, and that's where it stayed. It was 22 degrees out. Dealer (an hour away) re-initialized the windows. Windows-type problem. Windows-type solution.

1250 miles. 3rd week of ownership. Haven't even made the first payment. Not an enormous deal, but far from impressive.

Got my 2014 in late October.

2nd day already got taillight condensation at the top but not too bad, seems to be the same as when I drove a EK Civic back in the late 90's where condensation happens with its headlights. Mine is garage parked so the condensation goes away after a few hours.

No very noticeable crickets since I use ethanol free Shell V-Power 91.

2nd gear is a little harder to shift into when cold but that's the same as the DC2 Integras back in the mid 90's.

Only minor design flaw I can see are the sun visors, if you adjust them too much it pops off the plastic hinge, and just got to snap it back into place (this car is really cheap compare to old Hondas lol).

If you think 13 is unlucky, 14 is unlucky too in Chinese (it means sure death lol).

+1. On the whole post. Previous for me was the '06 Si. Problems that were relatively minor, but would have cost a pile to fix happened in the last 10k, but the 150k before that were were just as absolutely trouble-free, which includes 8 full seasons of autocross. Not too shabby for an early first year car. The FR-S is a much better toy, but I'm finding that I need to adjust my expectations to the reality that it's not as good of a car.

I guess sporty economy car and economy sports car are more different that I was expecting.

I e had parking brake failure and somehow someway my parking brake shoes basically disintegrated. Fought with Subaru for over a week without my car (only has 1900 miles) and lost the fight. Need to repair on my own. Car has loud chirping. Occasional rough idle
