Same here I always buy last year of previous models of cars or bikes. All issues are fixed by then.

PS. Does Post Owner mention water pump? Did I missed something?

Some of those posting sound like the types that don't ride because the weather person is saying there's a 20 to 30% chance of rain.
That said.
It seems as you (tnheritage) have plenty of company. I suggest you go looking for all the defective items on the last new car you bought.
