off top of my head;  
headlights getting only half the voltage (never figured out why), power windows working 50% of the time, some weird tranny problems, cracked heater core = coolant spilling inside the car (LOL, I actually laughed hard when I saw it), oil plug on the oil pan broke off and he spilt all the oil on the street (luckily he noticed it right away)…  
I know they had tons of problems, I just can’t remember all the stuff they told me.
