WARRANTY ABOUT TO EXPIRE...ANYTHING I SHOULD CHECK IN PARTICULAR???

I have about 3000 miles left on my factory warranty and I'm curious if there are any particular items I should check for? I've already had the flywheel and the crank damper pulley replaced in the last month and I am worried that there are some other "known" issues that I should watch out for.

Any input is much appreciated!!!

Check the rubber bushings at the strut towers for cracks (on top where the mushrooming happens).

Check these items but remember that the dealer is not going to replace them "For the asking" if they are found to be in working order.
