ok so here is an update
I replaced the struts and it is a little smoother...but still a light vibration or shake in the steering.
as for having the dealer look at it ? yes I have and we all agree on the possible a corrected issues....
So here is what I think and here is what I am going to do...just let it go for a good while...the only thing that could be left is the tires they do have a few miles on them may try to rebalance here next week and see if that gets it...
the vibration or shake is not somthing I can just live with.
thanks for all the ideas and advise

If it is the tires, a quick rotation from front to back may help that vibration too
