I had similar issue with my Lexus and I took it to the dealer. They couldn't fix it since it was the a result of a manufacturing defect. They blamed it on a malfunctioning welding robot. Since it was related to a weakness in structure integrity, it's a liability. So they took my car, salvaged what they could, and crushed the body since it's too expensive to re-weld it.
Anyway, California Lemon Laws came to the rescue. I got a brand new car (in a different color, even) since I was within the first six months. You might want to get a maintenance appointment booked before your six months is up.
