Any recommendations as where to look first? Has anyone else had this problem? When I get a chance I'll take a look and see what's loose, thought I would check with you guys first.

Thanks.
Lube the front end as you would any other car.

Also check your control arm bushings, I've had them go bad and crack with less mileage than your car has.
