I just purchased my 08 and love it! It drives like a new car and only has 117,000 miles on it. I’ve noticed that the steering wheel “groans” when making turns. Power steering works great and is very smooth but the sound gets on my nerves. Just took it for my first maintenance visit and they didn’t mention anything about fluids being low. Changed oil, rotated tires, etc and everything was good. Anyone else have this issue?

 

Flush it then see if the sound changes. It's fairly easy to do and is probably way over due.
Then start your troubleshooting.
