Rattle in the front end while turning. Phillips Toyota of Leesburg said they could not see any problems. No repair made. After doing my own research it was possibly the intermediate shaft problem or front wheel bearing. I'll have to keep an eye on it myself. 
60000 mi Popping and rattling noise from under dash. Diagnosed as worn intermediate steering shaft in need of replacement. Decided not to repair at that time. 
4960 mi Slight steering wander. Alignment was done to correct. Noise in headliner repaired. 
34900 mi Rear strut failed. Both were leaking fluid. Both rear struts replaced under warranty.
