Dealer replaced top hats and sway bar bushings and was not able to diagnose the problem. I think I have a control arm bushing but I am still under warranty so I am letting problem become more noticable. Update: engine mounts are bad Replaced belt tensioner.

This car has direct injection and I was not notified by the manual or the dealer about this cars requirement for GDI intake service every 20k. At 100k I started a violent misfire and Big Two Toyota said I had to replace the whole motor and then called for months trying to sell me new car. I got a second opinion and the shop correctly diagnosed as clogged intake because of no GDI service being done. The fixed it and I am running now with slight issues. Make sure you get GDI service on this car
