Wheel slip when backing out full lock?

[PBRAZ]

Any of you back out of a driveway and turn steering full lock on to the street, and feel something like wheel slip coming from the front driver wheel? Realize this is 4 wheel drive but it doesn't sound completely normal. It's almost as if something is lose but can't see anything. Not sure if it deserves an SC visit.

Do you use kneel mode? I've noticed this when I full lock before the vehicle height has raised sometimes.

Yes, I've noticed slight crabbing of front tire turning slowly in driveway. Most noticeable at full or near full lock. Ackerman effect....

I do. I will try with it off to see if that helps, thanks.

This.

There's nothing wrong with the vehicle.

All 4WD vehicles act similarly. My Chevrolet Silverado does the same thing when in 4WD and the steering is at or near full lock.

Yeah it happens to me too and was wondering if I have a lemon that cannot be diagnosed with an alignment. Looks like I have good company

This does contribute to tire wear. Proof? Drive on a relatively smooth concrete driveway without tire marks. Most cars don't mark the concrete. Mine marked my relatives driveway from entry to park. It's only front tires though.

Also when turning left while joining a road, it squeaks the tires ?

Yeah I get this too on my R1S Quad. Most noticeable when backing out of my driveway and turn to full lock. I feel a slip or shudder that feels very unstable. Seems to happen more overy any sort of unevenness in pavement for instance I notice it going over speed bumps while turning slowly in a parking lot. I did mention it to my SC (appt isn't for a couple weeks and going for some other issues as well). Sounds like the Ackerman effect
