TSB's?

I just made an appointment to get some tsb's fixed on my car. the ones i remembered were.
1. rear-axle click
2. rattle on shifter,and air vents.
3. broken cup holder.
4. drivers side seat(squeeking, and veryy loose)
5. my passenger seat feels like it needs to be re-greased.
That was all i could think of, do you know any others i might have over looked. Will they charge me for these tsb's, also what should i becareful of when bringinm my car to the dealer?

Um, are you actually experiencing any of these issues? Because they will not perform the repair unless you are.

If you are experiencing these issues, then the TSB's will be fixed at no cost to you.

The only TSB I had done was the passenger seat creaking like hell. OH, and guess this, it literally took them two visits, each with 1 week to fix that! I'm not kidding. The first visit they cracked a little piece of the side modling on the seat and had to wait for the piece to come in (1 week) and it didn't come in after one week. So, I picked it up only to find out the scratched my bumber. I came back 2 weeks later so they had to repaint the bumer and fix that cracked piece. So, that took them another week (the paint place only painted half the bumper where the scratch was at and they made them repaint the whole thing). So, all in all, two weeks with 4 different loaner cars. I would hate to see if I had all those things done...

Sorry, I meant Driver seats. I don't know about the passenger's seat as hardly anyone is on it but from what I've seen on the driver's seat, I wouldn't doubt that it would creak and vibrate if someone was on it day-in and day-out. Yeah, I know we paid blah blah blah and it does this. What I say is that I've seen many expensive cars with many expensive problems too so I'm not too worried. These are cars, with moving parts (alot of moving parts) and for it to be perfect is asking too much, especially since it isn't hand built. Anyways, that is alot of TSBs to do at one time. However, if you gonna do it, might as well get it all done at once.

Now, if I was you, I would do each at one time and take the loaner car for a road trip. The gas is free and you'll not beat up your car with rock chips, bugs, etc. From the looks of it, you can do 5 road trips

BTW, I can hear the creaking noise come back so I'm sure I'll be taking a road trip in a few months

Well, bad news for me. They didn't fix my creaking noise no the Driver side. I actually saw the TSB on it and it looks like it is the lift mechanism on the chair that is making the noise. Damn, the dealer literally took the entire seat out of the car and replaced the railings, which had nothing to do with the noise. So, now I will have to go back and have them do this again. Isn't really making angry since now I can take a trip with the loaner with free gas FYI, those damn guys took like 1 week to fix this.

Yeah, this sucks. Wished I saw the TSB before I had them fix the wrong thing Oh well, like I said before, they are going to do this whole, long drawn-out ordeal to fix the seat again. Took them one week the first time around. Let's see how long it takes them this time.
