Rubbing / Grinding sound when turning at low speeds

Interesting. Yea it almost feels like something is about to snap, doesn't sound or feel normal

Turning at slow speed sharply can cause this rapid thumping, sounds like a buckling sound along with vibrations in the steering. It stops after half a second and otherwise I don't notice problems. Has anyone seen an explanation?

Same.

I've experienced this 3 times, but can't replicate it on demand. It seems to occur when parking/after parking and then I turn the wheel a little more. It's a loud rubbing noise coming from outside the truck, but I can't determine what's causing the sound.

Is it tied to the height change for easy entry? That can load up the tires and suspension causing scrub.

I don't use the easy entry so we can rule that out.

I thought it was the tires rubbing on the trim like you hear in some other vehicles if you oversize the tires, but there is plenty of clearance so like others I am puzzled.

Having the same issue, can’t replicate on demand but happens once or twice every trip. Sounds like something is going to break in the right front, like gear teeth are grinding or something like that.

Hello fellow CyberTruckers,

I took possession of my CyberTruck a few days ago. When at low speeds, the steering has a rubbing/grinding sound. Do other people hear that on their trucks too?

Thanks,
Kim

Yep, doing some extremely light off-roading recently and noticed it quite a bit, only at full turn left or right and at slow speeds. Didn’t sounds right to me but honestly I disregarded it since it’s not something I’m noticing all the time, figured it’s just from being off road. I was also in off road more in “very high” mode.
