Sup with that crap? 
When I start the car, the right one does its song and dance but the left one doesn't move. What gives? Anything to look for? A loose plug?
and with the rain, I tried the AUTO feature on the wipers...and the **** sits still...so long that I can't see jack. It never came on. What's up with that?
I'm taking it in for service on the 19th...makes me wanna take it in earlier. I wonder if the headlight still goes left and right in curves... I'll have to keep an eye out for it.

Sounds like the auto leveling/AFS motors failed. Try switching the AFS on and off to see any difference in startup or while you're driving.
On the Auto selection of your wipers, did you make sure to change the timed interval for wiping from low to high or vice versa?

Ok I found it. Here's what I saw, with it off or on. The headlight moves probably 1/2 an inch, if that, up and down. It looks like something is preventing it from moving....any idea why?
And as for the wipers, I did try to play with the time adjustment... I'll play with it again tomorrow.

The other day it was raining and my wipers didn't go automatically. Why? Cause some tech at Lexus played around with my settings. How do I know? Because they also turned off my automatic headlights. With that in mind and this thread I read last night, I checked my wiper controls today. Its was on off and not set of "Auto" like I had it before. There are actually two "Auto" on the wiper controls. One for the auto wipe detection and the other for... well I'm not sure. lol
As for the headlight, I'm not too sure about that.
Oh yeah, flip I think dunnojack was referring to motors on the headlight itself... cause we all know that Toyo/Lex motors can last a lifetime!
