My wife's Jeep Liberty has multiple lube points so that made me wonder if the ST requires lubing?

Not really, but a drop of grease on the steering stops once in a while is recomended.

Other than that, just monitor your fluids.



 
I typically crawl under the thing every few months and spray any suspension bushings I can find with suspension lube. This just prevents them from squeaking or drying out. Hopefully increasing their lifespan.



A good example of these bushings are on the ends of the swaybars.
 
I forget the name brand, but it is a silicone based lube. If I remember right, it is a Blue aerosol can that reads something like "Silicone Suspension/Bushing Lubricant"



Petroleum based products and rubber don't always get along, Silicone or Lithium based stuff is what I have been told to use for this type of application.....



cheers,
