I love this car. My only problem lately has been that I've noticed after driving it for 7000 miles I feel like I'm going deaf in it. I tried it with the music off just to make sure. Silence or music, I'd get home after 40 freeway miles I still felt deaf. Similar to the feeling when you descend over a period of time from a major elevation, like coming back from a ski trip. That kind of deafness.
My feeling is that the car is too hermetically closed and becomes pressurized as air is fanned it and it isn't properly venting out. I know it must have those passive vents somewhere in the back but they may not work properly. My newest trick is to crack the rear windows a bit and see if it helps. I haven't had a chance to really try it yet because my boss' boss "found out" about my charging at work and put a swift kibosh to it. So now may daughter has the car most of the time and I'm back to my ICE Honda - no deafness there.
Anyone out there has a similar "going deaf" experience?
