Replaced the tailgate struts so my tailgate would stay open on my wagon. No longer have to use a stick to hold it open. Also bought new trim clips to reduce the amount of rattle noise coming from the tailgate.

Splines on both windshield wiper motor and wiper arm worn out. Quoted $150 in parts; bought $2 teflon tape and put around mount then pressed in the wiper arm. Should be ok but hasn't rained yet. Replaced window arm after attempted repair failed.  Also, this month the odometer broke (probably broken odometer gear). This will not be fixed as I do not have the time to fool with it and I can gauge from the LCD odometer.
