Been back to the dealership 4 times and am scheduled for a 5th later this week to resolve these issues.
Thermometer seems to keep getting stuck. Doesn't matter if I just started the car or if I've been on the road for hours. It randomly gets stuck. Not a big problem except I know the thermometer is connected to the A/C and has an impact on cooling.
The knock seems to come from the rear passenger door area. I'm not 100% sure because I'm driving when I hear it. The dealer's adjusted, tweaked and even added foam but the knock keeps coming back.

Anyone out there experience the same and what was the fix...?

I love the car otherwise but I'm starting to lose my patience with it.

Thanks
