I will post all of them in one thread in order to save real estate and not distract others too much
I've tried searching but i am not savvy enough
  • when at idle, i can hear a very pronounced loud tick. i know that this is not an electric car but our camry idles quiter
  • when sharp turning (full wheel turn, no throttle at all, under 5 mph) there is always 1 loud bang on either side, seems on the side the wheels are turned towards
  • when on straight road under 50 mph, the car is stable but the steering wheel has a lot of play, more than our 02 camry (new tires, new brakes, new alignment)
  • rear view mirror is lose at glass wobbling back and forth , not side to side (unglued? why?)
  • the driver and passenger door panels seem to have a slight gap at the upper seam and can this be causing excessive wind noise (the defroster piece looks tight but the rest of the panel is not)
  • radio/stereo sound is awful regardless of source/quality

2008 es 350 95k

love the car though

thanks all

car is at the dealer right now and they are giving me the "it is operating the way it was designed to" speech
how do i argue this?
we also own a 14 and it does not operate even close to this way
