Steering column rattle, which recurred since last trip to shop. This time, they fixed something another noise source. Steering column replaced (2nd time) due to extremely annoying rattle at low (< 20km/hr) speeds.

Gear shift lever knob had started to peel and feather, replaced knob. A-pillar trim panel on passenger side had become warped and started to intrude on the windshield. Panel was replaced.
Cover for hole in G5 trunk interior (cover for the hole left by the cobalt taillights) broke, but was replaced under warranty. The part is fragile, and difficult to install. Removing cover exposes sharp metal, but it's a MINOR issue...

Wheel center caps were loose, 2 had fallen off. Warranty replaced with a newer part which should not fall off. Very pleased with warranty coverage on this.
