Issues & Defects from factory

Three issues w/ mine, which I purchased 11 months ago, and has 14,000 miles:

1) Rear hatch spring issue
2) Transmission rattle while at a stop, engine at idle. The rattle goes away when the clutch is pushed in. I've had many manual trans cars, and this rattle is significant, especially for a car like the Z.
3) Rattle coming from the right side of the car which increases with speed. This started yesterday, and doesn't seem to be the tire, but seems to be coming from the right front area of the car. I don't have much to say to further describe this.

All three issues will be addressed at the dealer (my first dealer visit since buying the car), but curious to see if anyone else has issues two or three.
