Slamming the door, moving the seat, and messing with the radio or temperature settings...

I don't blame them in my TL though. It's kind of hard to not slam the doors if you didn't know they're one-touch.

Slamming doors. Gf and mom are the only ones who have ridden with me more than once and they're good about it.

^This on any car aggravates me. I hate when another passenger gets in the car and complains about where the seat is. Just re-adjust it an keep goin on with your life. You already know I wasn't the one over there, someone was before you.

When they blame my car for being a piece of shit because they don't know how to play the door game.

Ya'll know, getting out of the car before the door shuts on you lololol

But it is funny when they push door open and take sweet ass time getting out and it comes back and hits them in the leg.

Good times.

I don't care about temp controls - dual climate they can do whatever they want just leave my side alone.

I would say the biggest is when not wearing a seat belt. The reminder chime is so much louder in driver seat than pass. seat. That is really annoying.

Those two things.

Passenger: Do you mind if I smoke in here?
Me: Hell yes I mind. Nobody smokes in any of my cars.
Passenger: It's just a cigarette. Not that big of a deal.
Me: Bullshit it's not that big of a deal. If you wanna smoke then you can start walking.

I hate when people ask that when they know better.

I blame Acura more for the whole "slamming" doors thing. But it still bugs me EVERY time. It took me a long time to train myself into the habit of operating my own door without hurting myself.

Slamming the doors and trunk. I'm surprised they haven't broken the glass out of the windows or damaged my subs from slamming the trunk. Certain people I remind every single time right before they close the door and they're not physically or mentally capable of shutting it correctly.

Putting the seatbelt on and completely missing the other piece and denting/scratching the metal trim on the center console that I've already replaced once.

Touching the radio without asking and to make it worse they always hit the CD changer buttons when trying to skip to the next song. Some think it's perfectly fine to crank it to ear bleeding levels as well.

I also hate slamming doors, but what pisses me off is when people can't close the door by the handle or at least some part of the door. NO, they have to close it by the window leaving finger prints all over it!

some people just can't keep the hands to themselves...
since our doors are heavy enough, there is actually no need to slam the doors.....i always feel bad for my car whenever there is dirt/leaves on the carpet after having passengers

Slamming doors and trunk, when someone tries to change the song and changes the cd instead, and probably my biggest peeve is that my girlfriend always plays with the e-brake. If I'm parked she'll continually release it and pull it back up. It gets on my nerves and even when I tell her not to she does it subconsciously without thinking about it. But when someone opens a door into the curb I feel like pulling my hair out.

Not necessarily a passenger thing but what I really hate is when people lean on my car at parking lots. Happened twice in the last month. It's a fucking car, not a brick wall outside a high school.

door slamming, opening door and resting it on the other car (yes this happened once...after i said....watch the doors!!!!!!!! ), tracking dirty shoes into the car, touching the windows, dripping sweat in the car, yanking on the door handle as i'm unlocking the door....dragging shoes or crap along the plastic interior trim pieces of the car...

makes me wonder who the hell all your friends are who think it's ok to go into someone else's car and start messing with stuff. my friends and family don't do that kind of stuff. the rule in my mind is: the driver is in charge of all the buttons so it's driver's discretion (even more so if they own the car). it's called respecting other people's stuff. if you wanna mess with stuff ask.

the moral of the story seems to be, "all passengers must be handcuffed and put into a bubble before coming within a 10 ft perimeter of your car"

Not really their fault since they don't know, but when they take off their seatbelt before I stop the car. Like someone else said, that beeping is way louder on the driver side than the passenger side.

Is it possible to turn it off?

I also hate when people lean on my car.

Slamming doors is huge for me. I have young kids and they already get it. "Dad, I'm gonna be careful. Watch!" It blows my mind that people can be so disrespectful of vehicles. I get it if I drove crap. I had two Impalas before the TSX. You needed to slam the doors. They wouldn't shut otherwise. Same with my TrailBlazer. The doors on that thing suck.

Not kicking the snow off outside the car also makes me wanna curb stomp people.

The biggest number one is assholes that just whip their doors open blasting the door of the car next to them and could care less about it.

No one that rides in my car knows how to unlock the door when we get somewhere, they always pull the little stick up.

When someone gets in the passenger seat and they lean their leg on the handbrake, then I have to touch their leg to let it down.

Radio's fine, but don't touch the climate control. Turning on the A/C takes about 10% of power/fuel economy, so pay up fool.

Other than that, just people generally acting like the car is theirs, and not treating it with respect.

There are two things that kind of bug me:


1. Boss likes to grab overhead handle and somehow the front plastic cover always pops off. I have reconnected this cover so many times and yet he can pop it off. The funny thing is the flying cover is oblivious to him for some reason. I finally stored the cover in the console and will reinstall before I should sell the car. I give up on that one.

2. My wife likes to fiddle with the dual a/c controls. I don't know why it bugs me but it does when she or someone else fiddles with the dual controls.

3. Totally agree on the rocker panel or door sill complaints. I don't understand why my front passenger side door sill is 4x more dirty than my drivers side. How hard is it to hop into the car without dragging your feet all over the sill?

I tell everyone that rides in my car to shut the doors by the door handle. Nobody does it. nearly everyone shuts it by the edge of the door. Pisses me off because that paint in between the windows is soft enough as is that I can't keep correcting it every time someone scratches it.

What is this 1-touch door stuff I'm reading?

1) When they take off their seat belt and make the car beep at me... and they don't put it back on.
2) not passenger but whenever someone moves my car or parks it, they NEVER apply the hand break... esp on inclined drives.
