1. Check the ground wires on your alternator. Make sure they are clean from corrosion or rust. Sounds like not enough output. Also check that your battery is still good, it's over 6 years old.

2. Check the ty rod bushings for wear. This assumes the car does not pull to the right or left, then get an alignment. The pot holes can be tough around here.

3. This could be strut related. Or the damper at the top of the strut tower could be out of position. Check both front and rear shocks. I'm assuming you have 32lbs of air in all of your tires.
