I'm about to go pick it up. I hope everything is fixed!!! I took it in for the TSB on the doors/windows rattling, the steering wheel shaking at various speeds, and alignment.

My driver's side and passenger side doors/windows/whatever have been rattling forever so I brought in the TSB for it yesterday to be fixed. The parts finally came in and crap. So it takes them two days to replace the seals and the side runner on the door panel. They told me the TSB doesn't apply to my vehicle because i have a 2005 instead of the 2004. They still fixed it though (i hope!), and said it's just under regular warranty.

I also explained to them that the steering wheel shakes and I thought it was the balancing of the tires and alignment. They called me today and said it was caused by the brakes and replaced my rotors and brake pads. My car only has 3000 miles on it. I was like okay i guess. I hope they aren't pulling my chain or something. Braking has been somewhat poor since the beginning. I hope there is better stopping power. I didn't experience the brake judder or shaking when i stepped on the brakes. It was just steering wheel shaking at
various speeds.

I pick the car up in 1 hour and I'll report back at 11pm or so to see if my brakes really are fixed and my rattles have gone away. This damn car~!

Let us know if your rattles are fixed!

Your brakes should be much better....

Ratting is not fixed. I drove it home and it's the same rattling. I roll the window a tiny bit and it goes away. It's weird. It did that before. The brakes are better now with no vibration in the steering wheels at various speeds. I'd rather deal with rattles than have crappy brakes. This rattling problem is somewhat driving me nuts. This is my second time taking it for teh same problem for the front door rattling. They did replace the whole seals around the window but not that runner on the inside door panel. I guess i'll call the dealership tomorrow and talk to them about it. I can't leave my car there all the time though. I have to go to school and I need a damn car! I can't keep on getting people to drive me around.

It sucks to drop 40 large for a vehicle and have it in the shop constantly!

I can't believe they didn't replace the window runners- that's where I would figure the noise is coming from! Mine is pretty bad on the passenger side too.
