common probs to fix before end of warranty?

I've been reading about some of you ppl having trouble with the rear drum brakes. How do I tell?
I want to get all the outstanding probs out of the way and repaired under warranty before it runs out (probably by end of next month).
There's probably some stuff that I've simply accepted as being normal now when Honda should be fixing it for me.

so far repaired/replaced on my car under warranty:
radio
rear suspension (various parts)
front struts
instrument cluster

anything else I should be paying particular attention to?

You can't just walk in and have things replaced because other people have had problems. You need to have the problems in your car before they'll do anything.
Does your seat rock?
Does your Clutch Squeek?
Does your engine severely vibrate?
Other than that, it seems you've had the stuff replaced.
They're not going to replace the brakes on warranty anyway, its a wear item.

oh I know, I have to complain to them about it and they have to actually see that there's a problem before they replace it. But want to see if there are things I should be paying attention to that I maybe have been taking for granted as normal now that I've had the car for almost 3 years, and if they aren't normal I want them replaced/fixed before warranty ends.
