On December 21st last year (2017) i bought a 2016 dodge charger SXT from a Las Vegas dealership. I live out of state in Utah, so I traveled south to purchase this charger. Test drive was great, the carfax showed no problems and it just had over 34,000 miles on it...so basically still young of a Car. My drive home to utah was GOOD! Smooth drive, silent engine idol, turned on a dime so crisply...just felt good. Then I'd say about over a week of having it, one day I began to notice the steering had become stiffer to turn (simple turns on streets had become more of a wide turn) and i had begun to notice a 'what best describes it as a ( ELECTRONIC TYPE GRINDING) when I accelerate...or the more time I'd spend driving throughout my day... I thought maybe it'll just get better its practically almost NEW being only a 2016...well it didn't and after a month later the grinding sound now pretty much is standard everywhere I go and louder...alignment is definitely off..as it pulls slightly to the right on straightaway drives..and steering still is stiff...I'm not crazy I notice things...and to end my rant, this definitely isn't the crisp and smooth, powerful car I experienced the first week...any ideas of what's going on???? all knowledgeable suggestions are welcomed.. thanks in advance
