Default New car bugs

I just got a 2008 Limited Escape and now miss my 98 Ranger! I have been having some difficulties and maybe its new car bugs or ? The liftglass leaked and sometimes I have to slam hard to close and get the door ajar light to go off, the overhead storage (sunglass holder?) rattles when empty (or whenever), the satelite radio cuts out (my friend heard it and said his never cut out that way, but he has a Honda), the dash lights dim and brighten without regard to outside light/dark and acceleration is very sluggish. I took it in to the dealership with all complaints and had the oil changed. Still very sluggish, dash lights still dimming and brightening intermittingly, overhead storage still rattles, liftglass is fixed and satelite radio works better so maybe I'm too picky about the other stuff. Anyone else having these problems in the 2008? PS I am still getting the oil change due 5% message even after the oil change. Do I need change something or did the dealership forget to update it? Thanks for any help!
