30kmi on the vehicle when I got it a month ago.
Can anyone shed some light on the 4 following problems I'm seeing?
1. The homelink mirror is a source of some rattles.
2. The trunk doesn't always open on the first pop (regardless of whether I use the fob or the hidden license plate button, usually in the morning).
3. Carfax showed no outstanding recalls, but on my first test drive the front groaned something awful. dealer replaced front tires with brand new ones and noise was completely gone. Is it possible that when my vehicle was in for the feathering recall that they didnt replace the front tires?
4. pretty bad brake dust - any recommendations on replacements?

1) Yes, search around here, there is a fix.
2) Yes, talk to you delaer, there are some replacement springs that solve the problem.
3) The feathering was a TSB, not a recall.
4) Common with the OEM brake pads. Get anything else and the problem goes away.

That's a funny comment about VTEC, haha!!
1> Mine does the same thing, the last owner probably bump the music like I do
2> hurry up and go back to dealer and use your warranty before it's 2 late like me
3> you can get alignment 4 free at the dealer as long as you don't put on after market rims, at least that's what I remember.
4> Change brake pads, factory pads sucks anyway
