I just started noticing a sound that seems to only occur when I’m turning the wheel fully to the left or the right. It doesn’t make the sound until I start accelerating forward. Has anyone else had this issue and come across a resolution? It’s a 21 Sport S that’s almost 2 years old at this point.

Sounds like rubbing to me, have you replaced your tires and wheels with anything oversized?

It sounds like the posi clutches in the rear diff.

Assuming this is the case.........If you have recently changed the fluid, you need to add more friction modifier. If you haven't changed the fluid, I'd do so and add the proper amount of friction modifier.
