Warranty about to expire. What are some recommendations to check on?
BTW, I searched.
So far, the only thing to get fixed this month is the leaky rear window seal.
What else should I check on before I take it in for warrantied service? What has went wrong in your cars soon after warranty was up that might have been preventable if you spotted symptoms while under warranty?
Cam seal?
Thanks

Bust all your CP's and have them replace.
I did have the camshaft position sensors replaced just before warranty ran out but was getting CEL off and on randomly at the time.
Since warranty expired 20k ago, until recently I've only had to replace a faulty brake light switch. In the past 2.5 months I've done rotors/pads (were fine but more or less preventative maintenance), a couple control arms/bushings/links, all 6 CP's (2 or 3 went bad) and both xenon bulbs. Not sure how long the control arms were bad or going bad for, but the last set of tires (replaced around 50k) were cut down on the inside in the front so maybe bad alignment or they've needed to be replaced for a while.
Oh also I just had a new radiator put in, but that was because of stupidity.
