Hey guys I have a 2010 SCAB 6.2L

I'll post a video later but when I switch my car from 2H to 4H and turn at low speeds (<15mph) I have a loud snapping/popping noise coming from wheels/axle area followed by Seizing of the front wheel or wheels. The problem is not present when I turn in 2H so I would be led to believe it is an issue in the front end drive. I've always owned RWD cars so you can imagine my ignorance on the matter.

Thank for the help!

Hi faptor,

How are things going at the dealership? I'd like to do some checking around to see how I can hep. What's the current mileage on your truck?

Thanks for the quick reply, faptor! If you need me to step in and assist, I'd be happy to escalate this up to your regional customer service manager. To get the ball rolling, PM me your full name, best daytime phone number, VIN, current mileage, and servicing dealership.

Truck is 2010... no IWE.

Sounds like binding CV or U-joint... But what do I know.
