My wife had been complaining about a rattle noise coming from the front of her 10 RX350 when she goes over bumps at about 35mph or so. Could not pinpoint the problem anyone with a similar issue?

looks like 2010-2011 steering columns have this issue. Mine happens when I turn the wheel. Of course, dealer can never replicate the issue when I bring it in. I have made a video and plan to show them.

The HS250h also suffers from similar problems and you can search in that forum. I am sure they share the same part with the issue

There is a TSB L-SB-0026-11 to address this issue.
Check if your VIN is before the production change VIN.
If yes, take it to the dealer before the basic warranty expires.

No, our VIN does not match either one. We were also outside the 50K standard manufature warranty however, we purchased a 7 year 100K warranty and it covered the cost of replaceing the entire steering column which was $3K. I have to admit I am not big on getting these extended warranties but both times I did they paid off big time. This being the second.

Same problem here, 2011 RX, I will bring it to the dealer to see anything they can do.
