I noticed some looseness in the steering. Hard to decribe, but if I was pulling away from a stop and turning as I started, there was a sort of "gap" feel, like there was a little play before the steering started. Since the rest of the car is so good this really bothered me. It felt cheap, like the steering in my '65 Biscayne when I was in college.
My dealer found a service bulletin about this. Something about the lube on the steering knuckle dries up and flakes off, or falls out. They took it apart and relubed it. It was 90 minutes of work under warranty and helped for about 10K miles, but now it's back. I wish I could tell you more.
