First owner of this vehicle or second? I ask because you said no accidents, but it looks like your hood isn't seated right on the drivers side near the headlight. And when you look at the picture showing both sides, you can notice it looks like a slightly bigger gap between hood and front bumper.

I would say something is bent going off what I read.

check the subframe. if it was in an accident, it might have been bent. the subframe holds the lower a arms.

ALL dealers are not evil.
I had a safety bulletin on my xA.
I took it to three dealerships.
Two denied warranty illegally.
One didn't.
I buy my Factory Toyota parts from them.

I also have a local shop that I support. They work on ANYTHING, from hotrods, to priceless exotics, and have absolutely no problem working on my Scion.

You owe it to yourself to find both of these.

I'm not saying I've never bought from mail-order. I do my best to hand my hard-earned money to a face.

(and no, I do not work for a dealer...)
