If I just take my list to my local dealer can I assume they will be good about taking care of everything under warranty??
Depends on how good of a dealer you have. If it's warrantable, there shouldn't be any problems.

Is it normal for the transmission to make a whining noise. I can hear it at idle from outside. It also does it while revving or accelerating at any speed.

Just brought home a 2023 37PP ... here's what I've found (so far):

- plastic/tape around driver side shock
- under hood fuses that could be seated a bit better (though, I think they all were seated far enough to not be an issue)
- lots of loose/broken tape, most notable behind front wheels in suspension area (see below for one specific questionable piece)
- TPMS reads higher than actual tire pressure (by ~7psi for 3 tires, and ~5psi for the 4th) - will talk to dealer when I go back for the next item
- damaged radio/dash bezel (to the right side of power outlets) - dealer already ordering a replacement part for this as I noted before signing
- passenger side windshield trim not properly seated/aligned (I think someone else noted this)
- minor scratching on driver side door which could have been from the dealer prep; I didn't notice it until a good sunlight hit it, but it should buff out

I'm assuming this tape around the height sensors should be removed also? It's broken/torn on the driver side, completely wrapped on passenger side, and not present on the rear.

Just looked over my 2023. Only found 4 “issues”
- Fuses were barely seated, all took a little extra to fully seat.
- Driver side shock still had plastic on the body.
- Tires were at 50 psi all around
- Tape on passenger side height sensor

I ll check all the list soon. I receibed my Raptor gen 3 10/22 some days ago. i got out dealer and Blind spot fail. I go back and they check that the passenger rear tail light sensor had a problem.
Solution : They already order the complete rear tail light to replace.
Also receibe the windshield with some marks , they try to clean or polished and nothing to do. Its like the glass had deep marks.
Solution : They ordered a new widshield
