Have quite the annoying problem.

When you make a slow turn from a stop it feels like the back end is dragging. Makes no difference if you turn left or right or are going in reverse.

Any idea what the culprit might be or the best way to figure it out??
 






Re Annoying problem

Check your parking brake. My 02 Limited had a similar feel and it turns out the shoes in the parking brakes had de-laminated and were periodically wedging up and "dragging". By the way, whoever designed this disc/drum parking brake set up should be taken out back and shot!
 






Second the above idea.

That and service managers that quote you an astronomical amount just because they dont feel like making things right:mad:
