50,000 miles approaching FAST!

I'm about <400 miles from 50,000 miles. I bought the extended warranty for up to 100,000 miles but I've heard that it is not the same. Is there anything that I can complain about during my last regular factory warranty visit? I already have them checking my window regulators (they all are making a grinding noise from I guess my excessive opening and closing), a squeking sound from the seat belt area, a broken plastic part (changed once before) from the driver side seat carriage...anything else that some people have problems with? I'll complaing and have them do something.

My brakes are starting to squek too. I drive hard and its been once since I changed the pads. I have yet to change my rotor. When should I? I can feel the ridges.

yikes. that is crazy. near 50k already. maybe you can have them change the wipers or the brake pads again. tell them you get bad reception with the radio and have them give you a nice new antenna.

I recommend making sure that all your complaints are in writing, so if something goes bad you can prove that you say something while it was in warranty.

PS: which SD dealer have you been going to?

I've just been going to the one in San Diego off of Balboa Ave. MBSD. I use to go to Escondido until whatever happened there. I have yet to try Hoehn. Either than that, I think that iI am gonna head over to Laguna Nigel, they treat me the best being and looking my age.

maybe you can make them somehow mess up with your engine and give you a new one.
