Bluetooth Module replaced under warranty. Dealer told me it wasn't functioning properly. I'm not sure if that was the case because it seems to be working just like it did before the repair. Navigation would lose position and GPS frequently.
The driver side blind spot monitoring module failed 10 days after I purchased the car. The unit was replaced quickly, but they required an updated procedure to calibrate the device, which added a couple of days to the service.
