Default Automatic Steering Wheel Closer

Yesterday when i took my keys out of the ignition and the steering wheel went up and started to go in, it started to go in but it didnt sound normal. It sounded like it was going in forcefully. Do you think I should show my dealer immediately or can i wait till the next service appointment. I am confused because it is WITH the steering wheel.

Has anyone had this problem before? And how should I approach it?

Thanks

if you don't have time, maybe you can call dealership and haev them put in the computer first about the problem, and let them look at it next time you go there

i don't think it's a bad problem, sounds like just the motor for extending / retracting the steering wheel
