Default 4-Wheel Drive High/Low

Was curious if anyone else has encountered this problem. If you switch to the 4-Wheel Drive High mode and put the car in reverse and turn the wheel all the way to the right or left, it seems as though the car won't back up easily. You really have to give it some gas to go, much different from normal 4 wheel drive mode.

In the owners manual it cautions you against ever trying to do this.

NEVER engage any 4WD on dry pavement and avoid turning the steering to the stops if you are in 4WD mode, it will ruin the system.
