Warranty expires soon, anything needs attention? - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Not about extended warranty.

Bought my BRZ around Oct. 13 so the warranty will expire in 2 months. Is there anything I need to pay attention to now and before the warranty is over? I looked at the TSB's, most of them are not applicable. My car was made July 2013. Just want to make sure that I cover all the bases. Thanks.

Is anything broke?
Yes = Take it in
No = They won't do anything anyway if it isn't broke.

My warranty also expires in October. My drivers side window makes a little bit of noise when going up, and is kind of warped a little bit. My clutch also makes a little bit of noise when fully pressed in. Stock tail lights had condensation also, but I swapped those out for toms, thinking of going back to stock and getting them fixed/selling them

break something either intentionally or on accident and then use your warranty to it's full potential...and deny everything

Late reply..

If I recall correctly, condensation occurs in the stock tails due to the thin gaskets from factory. I believe people fixed that issue by buying thicker ones from gasket ninja. http://gasketninja.com/

Lol triggered...

OP, like Tcoat said,

If there's anything that's broken, bring it in. If nothing is broken, continue to hope nothing breaks.

My basic warranty expires soon, as I have 35,374 miles on my car...and just under two years old (a 2015).

Nothing needing repairs so far. I've read about all the little quirks on this forum. Happy to have had the reading experience available to me.

Just wonderful to own a vehicle made in Japan. Extremely pleased so far with this vehicle. Beats any other new car experience I've had in the past.

Do the TSBs/dealers now know that the fuzzy speaker noise is from the door buttons vibrating?

I want to do something about that and if I can just get the dealer to fix that instead of messing about myself with tape/etc. behind the interior door panel I would rather do that.
