My List.....

• A whining rearend-especially at 40mph and 60-65 mph. (In the shop for 9 days-no parts yet).
• An annoying dash rattle (Never heard before the first cold snap)
• Fuel kickback when attempting to refuel with gas pump fully depressed

The Shaker 500 has been awesome! No problems there except operator confusion.

I do enjoy owning it however, and still look back at it everytime I get out.

Over 2500 miles

Only problem is the shaker does skip more than it should. Plus if I play a CD for a while and then hit "skip" to the next track, it can't find it. This has only happened twice so far in over a month.

But I am extremely happy with the car.

I have 3,800 miles on mine already. I've had it since October, and made a 1,000 mile trip to Sacramento and back. Here are the problems that I am having, though they are all fairly minor:

1- My Shaker 500 is skipping and rejecting CDs. It seems to be occurring more frequently.

2- I have had a clicking/rattling sound within my gauges. This is occurring with less frequency. I had my dealer look into this a month ago, but they were unable to replicate it.

3- This is a new one. Every so often, while driving on a street with consecutive buildings on my left, I hear a rather loud clicking sound from the left/underside of the vehicle. This sound echoes off of the aforementioned buildings. I've heard this four or five times. I'm waiting for it to occur with more regularity before I bring it in.

In all it is a great car, and I am having loads of fun with it. They are minor inconveniences, and will hopefully get them taken care of in the future.
