just took my car back to the dealer for repair

I got 3 problems with my car and Im wondering if im the only one with these problems.

1.the sunroof is very noisy when opend

2. The leather on the bottom part of the drivers seat is like tearing and my car is only 10 month old. I know is not me that did it cuz I never have anything sharp on me. the dealer saw it and said "oh yeah this is a defect we will get you a new one" so they order it.

3. When I drive and I hit around 35-40 mph the car starts making a buzzing sound, its almost like a little fan turning really fast and the faster I go the faster it gets. The guy told me "oh you probably have something stuck in your intake" well I dont know I just hope its nothing really bad.

oh and this sound can only be heard if the windows are up and everything else is of even the A/C. try it

oh and they loan me a Pontiac Grand Am, this car sucks its very unconfortable and no power its V6, but nothing like the TL.

I would have seddled for and Integra or even a Civic but the dealer goes thru Enterprise.

Wow, really? I've noticed a tear in my 1-month-old TLS that looks like it's been made with an X-Acto knife. I know it wasn't me either. I think I'll take it to the dealer's one of these days and get them to replace it.

SUNROOF VISOR?!?! that's almost as much an eyesore as a "bra" (nose mask)......I would never get either one of those....and don't try to burn me on how the mask protects against stone chips, I already know...

ok this is what the dealer found

They say that I had a bad ball bearing on the rear left tire

The seat cover was replaced with new one and now its great

and the noise from the sun roof stoped but I still hear some thing from the seat or something I notice that I moved the passenger seat up a bit and it stoped

so far so good

it get me mad in a way cuz the car is new why should I be going thru this right. I mean it is a good car its got nice power but the noises coming from all over and then broke ball bearing and also the lather going bad and the car is not even a year old.

I dont know but some things not right, most of my friends had Integras and they never complaind about the leather on their seats or noisy interior. I hope I dont start having transmision problems, next cuz if I do I think ill burn this froking car.
