service suggestion
Gonna call and schedule my first service. Aside from the manual-recommended regular maintenance, I'm going to mention these issues:
1. Sun Sensor (Don't think it even exists, much less works)
2. Seat coolers (Don't notice any affect).
3. Karate-Kid Crane-Move cup holder is loose. Needs tightening
4. Easy Entry feature doesn't function
5. Initial acceleration hesitation.
Do you'all have any other suggestions or items I should have looked at during this service visit?
Thanks,
EDJ

Check to see if there's a ticking noise in the rear seat area when the car is at idle. I couldn't hear it until a passenger mentioned it to me and when I went to sit back there it was quite noticeable. Seems to be a fuel shut off valve from other posts I've read. No known fix though.

Sun Sensor (Don't think it even exists, much less works) - don't think this work either.
Easy Entry feature doesn't function - set the function on, and move the seat closer to the wheel. then shutdown engine and open the door. if the seat and wheel don't move, then you got a problem. if the seat is far back, the seat will not move on easy entry, but the wheel will if not in the back/up most position.
