Small build quality issues, such as loose weatherstripping rubber, loose door mirrors, loose cabin trim and loose window seals. Few report electrical problems, possibly from water entering engine compartment due to poor seals. Almost all affected by random petrol-tank defect that randomly makes refuelling a 10-minute chore. Noises in 2005-2006 models from the front end when driving over bumps could be due to defective lower control-arms bushings, replaced when under warranty. For 2007-2008 V8 manual models, problems shifting into 2nd or 3rd could be due to faulty synchronisers. Model-year 2005-2007 convertibles suffered soft-top problems, including latching closing issues and uneven retraction.
