The '08's are made to look at, not ride. Didn't your salesman go over this with you when you purchased it.

Not experiencing those problems, but my primary chain is making noise on occassion ( I think it may be loose)
and I think I may have some transmission clanking at highway speeds (5th gear)
Doesn't do it all the time, cruise works great, rear brake squeaks a little just before you come to a complete stop
and no tbw problems noticed at this time. I only have 160 miles but have been out onalot of short trips.
