I noticed this happening in my CGTS after rotating the tires. It feels like there is a rock under one tire and slides. But I do not have any rocks on my driveway. I do have to fully crank the wheel to back out into the roadway.

It feels like one or two skips as the tire is dragged and releases.

At first we noticed this when the car was cold, but now it happened a couple times when the car is fully warmed up.

Is this common? Just a part of the early mile break-in as parts mate up? Thanks!
Kind of goes clunk, clunk when turning? That's probably cold tires. Once they warm up (and it doesn't take long) it stops. I've had that issue in the winter for years parking a car with PS4s in an open garage. I'm in Atlanta and while it doesn't get really cold, if the temps drop to 40 or less, this consistently happens. By the time I leave the parking deck, it stops.
