Default *sigh* more problems (interior paint, electronics)

I had the engine replaced about a month ago. It was all kinds of messed up.

Got it back and the car was perfect again.

Andddd here I am, a month later, with more problems. The tire pressure light keeps coming on/off. Tires are fine, checked them many times. The exterior bulb failure light keeps coming on and off. All lights are fine. The interior dash lights in my car are all mistimed and parts of the dash have a delay, and come on 5 seconds after other parts of the dash.

Got in my car this morning and noticed a discoloration in the silver paint on the center console by my shifter and slightly on the right window button. Rubbed it and the paint came right off in my fingers. Have a nice black lines now.

I also seem to have the notorious dash paint problem .. it's starting to peel in places.

I once again feel as though my car, that is one year old with 20k on it, is simply falling apart.


...back to the dealer I go. Once this is all straightened out I have a feeling I will be parting with the car. I hate to say it, but the crossfire is absolutely a piece of ****.


Thankfully my dealership is GREAT. I had engine problems for 2 months and was in and out quite alot .. I kept my cool and always worked well with them. They ended up swapping the engine and even went out on a limb to replace a rear wheel that they shouldn't (more or less user error) have since'I had been so patient'.
