Our warranty is about to expire this March so I am planning on taking our boat in for some minor issues. Are there any major issues with the 2012 AR210 that others have had in the past that I should look for on our boat before warranty expires?
 
Here are my most expensive repairs that were done under warranty (same boat/year too):
1) Captain's seat bolster wouldn't stay up-right (cheap plastic bracket that I expect will break again), they replaced the whole seat. We now keep the throwable in between there so it's not allowed to go any further back.
2) Anchor locker support/spring broke, they replaced the spring/support.
3) Throttles would slip back at around 4-5k RPMs, they tightened them a bit and that seemed to help.

I had zero engine/jet issues to speak of and trust me I looked high/low to find something before that warranty expired. :)

I did complain about the bow roller scratches from that cheap plastic one that came on the trailer, but all they did was clean it up a bit but there still are some scratches. I have since changed the roller to the Stoltz brand one to prevent further damage up there.
 
Thanks! I actually do have items 1 and 2 on my list. I don't recall having issue 3 but I will bring it up just to get it checked out.
