Default It wasn't my imagination!

I had been noticing a clicking sound during turns especially when doing sharp turns. My g/f and friends told me I was paranoid, but I took it to the dealer any ways and it turns out that my car needs the left strut and some rubber parts. What's up with that ? Isn't it too soon to have problems like that? My car has about 21k miles.

Maybe you hit a pothole and at the time it was ok so you didnt think anything of it.

Chances are it was your rubber bushings for your strut. It should be covered under warranty.

No, i'm pretty sure it wasn't a pothole. I would remember if that would have happened. But you guys are right it is fully covered under warranty. They ordered the parts yesterday and should arrive on Thursday.
