Steering Chatter
I notice on my C7 2016 that when I do full left or right turn on the wheel it seems to chatter or feel kind of rough. Is that normal when turning the steering wheel as far as it will go? It acts as if the tires are rubbing the fenders or something along that nature. Thanks.

Yes it's normal. It's not rubbing the fenders. The wide tires are just skipping a bit on the pavement at full turn lock at low speeds.
You'll notice it more in colder temps as well.
The owner's manual even mentions it - in case folks have never experienced it before.
Nothing to worry about - and easy to avoid by dialing in a bit less steering in those circumstances.

Thanks to all. I thought I read that manual for front to back, but I guess there is so much information in there it goes into my head and out one of the holes in my head.

Thanks for the quick answers. Thought I read that manual from front to back. But so much information in it. What went into my brain leaked out one of the holes in my head.
