I recently bought a 2012 Nissan Xterra. It is 4x4. my question is about sharp turning, i get a short vibration in the floor while turning sharply right. It doesn't happen all the time (twice so far once in a parking lot and another while turning at an intersection) it almost feels like the ABS kicked in. It also feels like the Front Left tire. The Truck only has about 25,000 miles on it. I was assuming it was a front differential deal (I've never owned a 4x4 vehicle) but I was curious because FWD vehicles I've had in the past haven't done this. I've checked the UCA and the LCA as well as any other steering related parts. Its all solid with no wiggle.. I'm not too concerned about it but wanted to know if anyone else had had this issue. It's never been wrecked, never been off road heavily (dealer cleaned most but not ALL dirt from previous owner, but all that I've seen looks like dirt road material)

Any help would be awesome! I'm asking more to just confirm that there isn't anything wrong.
