Fuel Door Wasn't flush. After it was replaced once it remained flush until the first time the temperature got below 40 degrees F. I'm an automotive plastics engineer and this is clearly a manufacturing issue.
Passenger side visor fell off for no reason. Wires are exposed and will be addressed with the dealer. From what I've read it seems this is somewhat routine.
