questions about my S550

I have a 2014 S550 that I bought 6 months ago. It's got 20" rims.. When I go over rises in the highway, sounds like I have tire rubbing going on. Rims and Tires are stock sizes although big.. Is that something I should take it in the dealership for?

Second problem is when I get in and the steering wheel goes to the preset position, makes a rubbing sound. Only does it from the top position down a little ways. Sounds like it needs grease or something. Something I can do or a dealership thing. Car is certified...

It's all covered under the warranty. Let the dealer do everything.

I agree with Streamliner, its on the dealer CPO. With GM cars, trim items are NOT covered under CPO. Assuming the Trim (plastic well lining) is loose or rubbing, they may deny it. Are you the original owner? If not, possibly prior owner had a tweak done to the suspension. Or, you could have a bad Air Shock(s) causing the body to be lower than normal. It may be something as simple as the underbody liner not installed correctly after a oil change. Just 2 cents till your service appt.
