Possible Paranoia
Ok, I have about 1500 miles on the car - took delivery on December 15th this year. Lately, and it might have been happening all long....but lately when I make a turn left or right, over some uneven road or slightly bumpy road, it feels like maybe the right wheel or something to do with the right front has slight play in it.
The only thing that makes me think this is some vibration in the wheel that I can feel, almost like something is able to move a bit, like a loose hub on a mountain bike....all being felt through the steering wheel.
I don't know, maybe its the suspension. After tons of searching and asking friends, I thought I would post here. I would hate to take it to the dealer only to find that there is nothing going on.

Got a torque wrench? Do the front wheels.
Also, do a visual. Cut the wheels all the way to the left and right and look behind them--see anything that looks "wrong", i.e., leaks, shiny spot, etc.?
Check tire pressures with a gauge. See if they're all set at 30, when cold. Real cold, like first thing in the morning before you move the car.

thought I would post again. I didn't seen anything. Im NOT taking it to the dealership, so Corvettes of Houston said they would gladly take a look at it. I plan on having the tech drive it with me, and see if he feels what I think I am feeling. If not, all good, if so....well I will go from there.
