2013 Subaru BRZ 2dr Coupe

200-horsepower 2.0L H4 6-speed manual RWD

52000 mi

US $11
The mirror was exhibiting the known BRZ issue of excessive vibration. I purchased a repair kit but saw little improvement. 
15280 mi Had auto dimming mirror installed when purchased and had worked loose and fell off. Windows lubricated. 
8000 mi Rear view mirror fell off. 
7800 mi The rearview mirror fell off one day after being loose for a while. The holes where the screws were screwed in did not have any threading. Took it in to the dealer and was fixed through warranty without questions. 
16000 mi Mounting bracket for the mirror was replaced. Left rear tail light had condensation. Replaced under warranty. 
11000 mi The rear-view mirror mounting bracket was stripped, which was causing the mirror to vibrate while driving, making it difficult to see what was behind me 
24680 mi Windows squeaking when going up or down. Dealer says guides are worn out and need to be replaced. Windows are scratched quite badly. I've asked to replace Windows as well. Waiting for Subaru Canada to approve repair by warranty. Side Windows and guides were replaced under warranty about a month later. Dealer even paid for the tinting. Everything is fine now. 
37200 mi Driver side window screeching and scratched by internal guides. It was replaced by the dealer for a second time,covered by warranty. Molding between door and window was replaced for newer design found on 2015 BRZ.
