What do you NOT like about your Civic?

I've owned this car for a short while (since 01/16), and for the most part, really enjoy driving it. My biggest gripes with this car is:

1)I have to reach so far behind me to reach the seatbelt, it's almost painful.
2)The power switches are a couple inches to far back on the armrest.

Does anyone have any issues with their Civic? Post up your gripes if you have any.

Huh, I can't believe I saw this thread and came here to write down number one. Yeah, seat belt is hurtful. Other than that, I cannot think of anything else. Power switches are not a problem for me. Really great car!

I got very used the where the window buttons were on the 05, then on my 2010 & 2013 they moved them to accommodate adding the power mirrors button.

I still to this day roll down the wrong window when not looking.

Uncomfortable seats
lack of sound reduction (very noisy inside - even with added sound proofing)
lack of power (102 hp when it was new 22 years ago- probably 80 now)
can't see around other cars
automatic

Aha... my people!! Lol
Not thrilled with the colors (inside or out) green (forest? emerald? Kelly?) On the outside, tan/beige/light brown on the inside.
Side airbag light/strobe light.
Front hood trim/part of grill.(I'm so tempted to fill this recess with body filler, shape it and have it painted.)
Other than that the things a cream puff. An 01 with 83k!!
