Loud crack pulling into driveway
I was pulling into the gas station tonight and the driveway is lil steeper than normal. I would say I pulled in at a 50-60 degree angle and all of a sudden I hear a loud crack like sound. It sounded like it came from driver's side, between the front and rear doors towards the roof.
Do you guys think it's just the twist of the body frame since it's a brand new car or could it be something else I need to worry about?

No shots fired at me, hoping I didn't **** anyone off.
Maybe it could've been from the bottom of the car but it def wasn't scraping. But I did hear it from towards the middle/top of the car. Who knows. We'll see if I hear it again, I hope not.

The exact same thing happened to my car on the first night I brought her home. I pulled up onto my driveway at an angle fearing I was going to scrape the bottom of the front lip. I then heard a loud crack, which I think has to be from the car frame. I still live at that house, and now it has been 2 years, but I haven't heard that crack since. Really weird.
