I had this exact problem and it went away after the dealer retorqued the front suspension twice. There is apparantly an art to the torqing of the suspension as there is some kind of expansion bolt, or some such thing, that not all techs are good at doing properly. It is not simply a matter of tightening everything as much as you can with a wrench, but doing it to Spec. Another sign of a lose suspension component is a thump under hard breaking. I had that too.
