Car put into reverse, wheel cranked all the way, and then noise hits when turning the wheel back other way. Brief grinding noise with steering wheel. Say I back out, and turn the wheel to full lock. Turning wheel to opposite direction causes a brief buzzing noise that's under a second. Doesn't always happen. Notice it most when I pull out in reverse to full lock, go to drive, and turn wheel in other direction. Doesn't matter if I'm in comfort/normal/sport mode. It's almost like something's rubbing/grinding or something. Loud clunk at low speed when turning. Mostly happens when turning into driveway, at about 3 mph. Took it to dealership to have it checked and was told nothing was wrong or rubbing. Couldn't replicate issue.

I have an 2014 sh-awd advance with entertainment package. After having vehicle a few months I made a call about noise coming from outside of car when backing and/or pulling forward like doing a 3 point turn. Was told it was normal for this vehicle. I asked when taking vehicle for first maintenance about grinding noise and told that these cars do that and was not a problem. I have been having issues that when pulling forward with wheels only slightly turned that there is a noise and alot of resistance in the steering. On one occasion at around 13,000 miles while parking, the steering made noise and jerked wheel back opposite of way I needed to go almost caused me to hit another car. Taking into service for 2nd maintenance and will once again point out this problem and see if anything can be done because this is happening more frequently and becoming more aggressive with car taking over my steering control.
