Canada weired 2009 camry hybrid suspension work

I am about to buy a used 2009 Camry hybrid, the service history shows that there are 3 suspension work done on the vehicle, So I search the Recall history , but didn't see recall related to the suspension.
So I want to see if there is a recall on the 2009 Camry hybrid model or should I be concerned about it. Any of you guys have similar situations on the service history?
Carfax report is clean, I think I still need to run a Carproof report on it. Any other sugestions?
Thanks

My 2 cents. I wouldn't buy the car. If no accident has been reported doesn't mean it hasn't been in an accident. Someone could've driven straight over a curb and bent a whole bunch of stuff.

If it is a local car you may have luck going to the Toyota dealers in the area with the vin number and ask whether they serviced it. Toyota printed me a work slip for all the work done on my sister's car that I bought years ago.
The work could have been 3 struts replaced at 3 different times because Toyota will only replace if they leak really really bad. With the expectation that struts will be leaking really really bad when the car is out of warranty.
