The remote fuel filler door release was not working right. It took multiple activations before the door would open, and then it would not open more than a little bit. This made getting the door open difficult. The issue was traced to the door opening spring, which the Dealer adjusted under warranty.

Radio reception had become weak and scratchy over a period of a few months. Even local stations were hard to receive, especially on AM. Satellite radio was not affected. At first the dealer tried to dismiss the issue as "it's a weak station", or "they all do that". After demonstrating that this was not normal and that it had not been there all along they went to bat for me with Hyundai and ended up replacing the roof antenna, which resolved the issue.
