Take a look at the owner's manual for recommended service items.

Check your belt, brakes, tires, hoses, coolant level (condition), battery connections, etc.

Make sure your rear shocks and rear swaybar endlinks are in good shape. Both like to fail every 30k miles or so. The rear shocks will visibly leak fluid if they are blown and the endlinks can be checked by shaking the swaybar and listening for clunking.
