I had the coolant crossover pipe fail at about 4k.

as in this thread http://www.iwsti.com/forums/showthread.php?t=41376

Luckily I was close to home so I made it to the dealer ok.

I've only driven about 800 miles since then.
Follow up... Left valve cover gasket failed somewhere around 19k miles. Warrantied.
If nothing else this will go down as the leakiest car I've ever owned. Hopefully that is all that happens since only 8 months remain on my powertrain warranty.

Follow up, follow up. Needed ANOTHER left valve cover gasket at 23k miles, although I suspect they may not have done the previous one properly. Warrantied again.
