Q: When turning the steering wheel all the way to the right or left, and I am slowly moving forward or backward, I hear rubbing noises under the car and there is a jerking sensation.  Is this normal?

A: In most cases, yes. This is described as "tire scrubbing".  Here is a quote from the Society of Automotive Engineers: "The tire scrub may feel like a slight dragging of the tire due to the lateral movement of the tire over the road surface. This is a normal condition. No repairs are necessary."  Therefore, in the clear majority of cases nothing further is needed. However, for liability reasons we must caution all guests to reach out to the dealership if you feel in any way that you may be experiencing an unsafe condition.
