OH and the engine ticks
Some people have more problems than others. The headlight issue is known and can be fixed at a dealership under warranty, the IC pump is a known issue as well and can be repaired by just about anyone who knows what a wrench is with a far superior pump for not much cash, the seat heaters are a known problem too, but I don't use mine anyway, and as for the hatch rattle, that is the easiest fix of all. Wrap a few lengths of black electrical tape around the latch bar. It takes about 2 minutes and all of your hatch rattles will be solved. If you take it to a dealer, all they do is adjust the latch bump stops. Those will eventually loosen and have to be readjusted again, and again. The tape actually insulates the metal to metal contact of the latch and latch bar, there by eliminating any rattles. Honestly, 2 minutes, some electrical tape, and absolutely ZERO rattles from the latch.
