I took the car in for service because I was having a great deal of difficulty shifting. The diagnosis was bad synchros in the transmission and was replaced under warranty, however I had to pay for the replacement of the clutch assembly. Clutch pedal was sticking constantly. The pedal bearing assembly was replaced to resolve the problem. 
35000 mi Rear Axle clicking. Dealership declined warranty repair because I changed the springs to aftermarket and this voided warranty. Repair was about $300 and was not worth it to me because it was just a annoying sound. 
38000 mi Fixed TSB rear axle click. relubed rear axles and replaced hardware.
