Brand new FR-S...Brand new problems

The door rattle kicked in at probably about 300 miles and I have a theory that it could have been due to heat warping some of the plastic paneling. When I got the car, it was during a stretch when the waether was 90 degrees + for a week or so. It's on the drivers side door and its caused by the plastic piece right where the door meets the frame of the car.

Tail light condensation kicked in about 2 months into owning it (on the passenger side). And driver side tail light condensation kicked in at about 3 months.

Not sure of the serial #.... but I can check.

I noticed a pocket of water inside of my driver side tail light while I was washing my car yesterday... :/ Mine is #5476, so this may be a problem for anyone or everyone. Luckily, this doesn't look like it's in the actual light, but it's in the reflector, if that makes sense.

That would surprise me about the temperature warping almost-new plastic. Still sucks.

Thats why I as asking about the serial #--there was a known issue that allegedly was cleared up very quickly regarding the tail light condensation, I was hoping that the higher serial #s had fewer of these issues
