One week after expiration of 3-yr warranty, the leg extender on the driver's seat failed to lock in the normal retracted position. Dealer wanted $1500 to repair. I thought that was outrageous - a failure on a low mileage car just 10 days after 3 year warranty expired, and dealer would not honor. I can, and have lived with it, but it is an annoyance of the first order as it hinders easy entry/seating. I really like the car, but that problem and dealer failure or inability to remedy under warranty killed any repeat purchase - there is competition aplenty in that price range.
