I just broke 9,000 miles on Saturday and had one time where my car almost stalled during idle. Besides that, no problem.

almost 11K on the clock. Got my FR-S on 5/31. No major issues like CELs, taillight issues etc...

I do have some interior rattling and I have the crickets(not a mechanical problem)

Very close to 17k miles on mine. I had the 2 TSB's done for the ECM and GPS which fixed those issues. I've had the chirping for a long time. Only "real" issue I have is a rattle in the dash I think somewhere in the center area of the ventilation system.

I just hit 5000 miles. No issues except I need to take it in for the GPS fix.

Over 10k miles, only mechanical problem was my A/C compressor chirp, lithium grease fixed it.

But my windshield got peppered and I have a couple tiny paint chips.

Just over 8,000 and so far so good

Ltngbrz · 02-12-2013, 11:46 AM

Just over 10k. Had a run in with a tractor trailer tire retread-$2800 in front end and fender damage. Only factory defect type problem I've noticed is horrible GPS. Not bothering taking it in yet because the head unit is so horrible I don't bother using it.

dmudry · 02-12-2013, 01:23 PM

i just ordered my car in January, and it is being built right now. does anyone know if they have fixed all of the small issues at factory level? and will mine come with the relocated GPS, tail light condensation and oil burning fixed?

dori. · 02-12-2013, 07:23 PM

you can add trunk that wont pop without they key and condensation in both taillights to my list of things I just found out today

ThugNasty · 02-12-2013, 07:27 PM

I've had condensation in both tail lights ever since I bought mine. (about 50 miles)

did you bring it to the dealer or you fix with off market mechanics? I mess up my bearing. I am thinking to take it to the dealer and see if I can get a warranty out of it for free saying I hit a lot of big pot holes or w/e see if they can fix it for me. hopefully they don't find out that I had an accidents.
