Your ignition is hard to turn and gets stuck in the "Start" position, even after you let the car warm up for 15 minutes.

I could barely get the key in in the first place. Then I had to force it out of "Start" and back into "Run." My starter did not like that.

Yesterday, I had to put washer fluid in the car, and the hood wouldn't shut afterwards. The spring for the secondary latch (or whatever it's called), wouldn't open. To latch anymore It took me about seven tries of slamming it to finally get it to shut.

The passenger door lock on wifey's CX-5 whines when it locks and unlocks if the temperature is below 10 degrees. And my car was NOT happy when I started it this morning. Several extra cranks and it revved to over 2k when it finally started.

Thats another thing, my locks won't completely unlock. Like they thunk like they unlock, but when I try to open the door it doesnt open. I have to manually push it the rest of the way. Which of course renders my remote useless until it gets warmer.
