Very frustating experience with BMW service

So I left my car for a week at a local BMW service center with a few problems

1. Doors creaking whenever I go up a ramp (known issue and easy fix)
2. My steering column clicking every morning on startup
3. A rattle that I isolated to the roof mounted vent by the SOS button, if I hold that little vent it will not rattle anymore when I go over anything but smooth asphalt.
4. A tapping sound coming from my fuel tank after every fill up.


They had the car for a week and tell me that they didn't fix anything because they didn't replicate it.

Problems 1-3 happen 100% of the time and are readily reproducible.

The fuel tank tapping is harder to reproduce but I have sent them numerous videos of the sound happening.

They refuse to fix anything....even simply putting the silicone treatment on the door seals.

What should I do in this situation? Is this just a lame duck dealer that doesn't want to work outside of oil changes/brake jobs?
