Thanks, so much everyone! I did look up the build date for the two they got in to the dealership today, and they were both built after the dates of recall for the roof issue, and that makes sense that you couldn't sell it without a safety issue being fixed first, I just wasn't sure. One of the two is built prior to the date for the FE update, so would still need it but that is something the dealer can update if it hasn't been done already. And yes I know about the EPA rating discrepancies people have reported but it doesn't concern me that much as it will still be better than most of the other cars I was looking at, and my current car.

As stated in the title I would like to buy a c-max (SE model) this week, the dealer near me is getting a few in with the colors and options I like. However, with the recall due to the roof for the SE, battery/eletric problems, plus the computer update pending, would you still buy one? I know that some of the problems appear larger than they might be due to forums partially existing as a place for people to vent complaints. Also if a car is getting to the lot this week would it already have the roof fix in place or the computer update? I really like this car (so much better than the prius) but I don't want to be bringing it back to the dealer for roof repair and computer updates in the first few months of purchase. Thanks for any advice you can give!
