"I love this car"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Not too many bad points about my car. The factory paint does chip. The factory tires had a slow leak in them. And I've never been in an accident in it, but I've read so many stories about the airbags not coming out, which worries me a little.

General comments?

Shifting in this car is as smooth as it gets. Cornering handles amazing. Awesome little car, but the dealership has a lot of room for improvement.

RE slow leak in tires. I doubt that it is the fault of the tires being "factory". It wasn't clear if the tires had been replaced at 56,000 Km or not. A slow leak can be the result of a small puncture, leaking valve or corrosion on the wheel at the bead of the tire.

I have a 2003 V6 Tib (purchased new) with 46,000 miles and also love the car and will probably get an 2006. Only a couple of minor problems -wear on leather seat, Sun roof motor and the O2 sensor, but all covered by dealer at no cost. My dealer north of Akron, OH is 1st rate.
