This is usually a normal manifestation of the steering system's "Ackermann angle" design under cold conditions, so there is no need to worry. The "Ackermann angle" design refers to the difference in steering angles between the two front wheels when the vehicle turns, designed to make the turn smoother and more precise (typica…
