My wife's parents recently purchased this vehicle. They literally live on the side of a mountain in North Carolina near Hendersonville, so the AWD should help when things get slippery. His complaint is that when he turns sharply while pulling out of a parking spot, the car seems like it does not want to move. He says it sort of feels like the brakes are on. When he straightens up the wheel, then it moves freely again. I have not had a chance to look at it yet, but wanted to get any input from others on this. Could this be the full time AWD attempting to keep all the wheels turning at same speed, but then binding up somewhat in parking situations? Also,for the record, they were used to driving a 96 Buick Regal until recently.
