Tires Fixed, New Wheels too!

Okay, I just had my first oil change at 6700 miles and I took my short list into the dealer for warranty attention. After driving my car, the service tech admitted the tires were flatspotting and traded them with other EL42's from one of their loaners that had 2500 miles. I have been driving it for a week now and I am pretty confident the flatspotting is gone, although it is already in the 100's here and it was much worse when it was cold. Although I would have liked brand new tires, the bonus is the dealer wasn't about to re-mount and balance all my tires so they traded the wheels too. I had really gouged the right front wheel good on a curb, not once, but twice while parking so much so there was definitely two unsightly and noticable gouges in my wheel. Now I have all pristine rims again!

Here is a list of what else they did that makes my TL now perfect in every way:

Headlight assembly replaced-fingerprint on lense inside old one.
Driver's air bag centered in steering wheel-had uneven gaps before
Trunk spring fixed-wing spoiler was weighing it down
Lint removed from third brake lamp
Eyelash in radio display-nothing done. I am debating on whether I want
them to rip out the whole radio to fix this since it is so small.

Other than these problems which are now gone, my TL has been perfect in every way and I will tell you I am one picky bastard.
