Here is the list of problems I am bringing to the dealer for my scheduled service appointment on June 7th:

- Brakes squeak
- Car squeaks (seats maybe?)
- Anti-trap malfunction when closing windows
- Active steering malfunction and clicking when unlocking car
- Both cup holders are broken
- iDrive says service is overdue

- Want software upgraded to v.17
- Want MP3 functionality
- Want radio stations and song names back on iDrive

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated...

Here this is my list:
1. Passenger Air Bag Light
2. Brakes Squeal
3. Door seals sometimes get stuck to body and make a creaking noise
4. Low Coolant Level warning multiple times
5. Rear shelf rattles
6. Instrument cluster rattles/chirps
7. I drive looses radio stations from time to time
8. Shifter will sometimes not go into first. It gets stuck on the way in
9. Clutch slips/judders sometimes on while engaging first gear. Especially after a long drive and car is very hot.
10. Clutch reacts slowly, sometimes grinds while shifting quickly to second gear
11. A/C smells rancid 24/7
12. When unlocking after the car is in ?sleep? mode it make a gear grinding noise instead of a whirl. This is a problem with the steering rack
13. cup holder fails to open 50% of the time and also ejects cans
14. Windows often goes halfway up and back down, also make a weird noise similar to doors
15. Trim broken where door trim was replaced.
16. A/C Auto recirculation not working
17. Sunroof wind noise
18. Squeaking noise coming from front wheels while accelerating and/or turning
19. Steering Wheel Roundel
20. Center Console Button is peeling
21. Shift Knob is peeling

You need to add this to your list:

- Not enough power
- Engine feels weak
- Hondas are faster
- Need more HP
