Nothing should require replacement or overhaul after only 10k miles, she's still young. You can always perform a visual and hands on inspection under the car and throughout the engine bay to look for issues suck as loose bolts, torn CV boots, brake pad wear, broken wire ties, chafed/worn wiring, belt wear, rust, oil residue or leaks, fluid levels, etc.

You could look at the maintenance schedule to see what might need attention.

If you're really hard on the car or track it, you should have a more frequent inspection and maintenance schedule of your own.

10K Miles....

Perform an Oil Change and Tire Rotation.

Inspect and top off/replace if necessary:

Brake fluid
Coolant
Washer Fluid
Belts
Hoses
Tire wear
Wiper blades

If brake fluid is low, it can either indicate worn out pads or a brake fluid leak.

Recommendations but not required:
Tire Balance and an alignment.
