Default Should/will the stealership fix this?

Hey folks...
Just bought the car 3 weeks ago and I'm already having trouble getting things replaced under warranty (They won't replace my CD Player because I only use burned CD's... never mind that in the morning they all play perfectly, but by the end of the day the unit keeps shutting down...)

My passenger side door rattles when a certain bass frequency occurs when the music is playing loud...ly. Are they going to give me the run around for that too?

I'd bet the rattle will be a tough battle to fight. But if you can demonstrate that commercially produced CD's fail, why should they not just change out the head unit?

It's a used car, it's going to have some rattles that new one ones won't. You probably won't be able to get that fixed at least if I was the service advisor I probably wouldn't fix it. The headunit should get fixed though. Especially if the disc work at one time a day and then don't at others.

I don't own any commercially produced CD's... seriously. I'm going to have to buy one which really makes me mad.

Wow thats EXACTLY what mine does. Its very annoying. And btw 13 dog, my car only has 15k and its young enough to still be under the original warranty. So no, it's not "that" old. I seriously doubt anyone would expect a car this young to rattle. I mean, we all seem to get the rear hatch rattle done.
