    Same. I’ve pretty much accepted the quarks and wacky stuff the car is doing. Here’s my quick list:

    – The loud A/C fan

    – the alarm occasionally going off after opening the door with the key and stepping inside

    – Randomness of settings being saved

    – all day fan in operation

    – locked trunk randomly not opening when key is in pocket

    – windshield speed display randomly off and on

    – general annoyance of walking away from car and the stereo is blasting even after hitting lock multiple times

    – service warnings pop on the display but the VF app shows everything is working perfectly

    – car randomly refuses to go into gear if you stop, sit for bit in park, then try to drive

    – cracking sound from the wheels – this sounds like the plastic rubbing against the metal wheels

    – no garage door buttons (would be a nice software upgrade)

    – auto windshield wiper does not work

    – Media button on steering wheel stopped working after a few weeks (volume up/down, next song/station)

    – driver side handle is already wiggling/loose

    – console display is very slow after selection (media, driver settings, etc)

    – Small Time display – hard to find while driving

    – terrible computer awareness of remaining mileage and actual energy usage

    – battery bleed – I lose 2% each day by it just being parked

    – poor feel when pressing the accelerator – the delay is terrible – press, then wait, then it goes

    – best range is around 242 miles on a full charge (100%) since new – about 2.75 miles per kWh .. so about 90% of what’s advertised

    – the usual.. regen braking, regen braking error when battery is 100%, scary lane maintenance, random speaker sound, stiff doors, no pre-drilled license plate front and back, VF app randomly finding the car and sometimes not, random beeping that i can’t figure why (it’s not the outside sensors.. i made sure)

    – heavy driving/feels clumsy – not great steering responsiveness (ok, now i’m just complaining), easily scratchable console, plastic-y charge door,
