Holy Sh@#! I can't believe a piece of machinery can be this bad without a lot of really bad work being done on it.

Your car sounds like the frustrations my wife was having with her BMW before I started dating her and then took over care of her car. The dealer would cause two problems for ever problem they worked on. They eventually went out of business.

While I have a list, I'm guesing it totals less than $1500 in parts and every replacement part from the dealer has been a better design and has looked like it will be a one time repair for at least another 100K miles. (Have a set of new front stabilizer links on the work bench for this weekend and they look much more durable than the original ones.)

Sounds like you need a new repair shop!

I've always said "A car's reputation depends more on the servicing dealer than on any other single thing".
