Questioning the build quality!

I have had my 30d m sport for a month now and whilst I think its a great car I am a bit dissappointed by a few things. The fuel consumption I have lready posted about but my PDC suddenly developed a fauly and told me to contact the dealer but its now righted itself. The gap at the top of the glove compartment is quite large and I can see the hinge mechanism, the rubber trim around the door well on the drivers side came up, I keep pushing it down but it does not want to stay down. My washer bottle has developed a leak nd will only hold fluid for a day or so. The light sensors seem to have developed a mind of their own in that in sunny daylight they turn the headlights on and yet in fog they kept them off.
Needless to say the dealer will be getting a call as soon as they return to work.

gap is large but it depends on your angle.
