Either your hubs or your ABS sensor are on the way out.
2013 Impala ABS Grinding Noise
I've had this car for about 3 months now and the problem really didn't start happening until more recently. When sitting in a parking lot and pulling off at low speeds the car will make a low grinding noise and act like it wants to stop but then you can drive fine after, it will occasionally do it on other turns when stopped for a little bit, I've seen post on here about it but the thing about this is, is there is no check engine light on, no service warnings or anything that pop when it happens, maybe there are stored codes that aren't throwing anything up yet but I have no clue, maybe it could be something small or I need to replace the harness or hubs.

is there any kind of abs code scanner I could use to see if there's any codes for either ?Either your hubs or your ABS sensor are on the way out.
I would 1st try unplugging the plugs at each wheel hub and spraying both plug ends with elec. contact cleaner and then slathering each end of the plugs with dielectric grease and reconnecting. You can turn the front wheels for access so you don't have to jack the car up. This has worked for me on my '12, '13 and '16 Limited that had your exact symptoms.I've had this car for about 3 months now and the problem really didn't start happening until more recently.

You could go the lazy man route and pull the two 60amp jcase fuses for the ABS...In the engine compartment fuse box..be marked on cover
Them drive the car around in a parking lot and see if the problem is gone...
If it is then put fuses back in and do more inspection of the ABS. Braking components
Let us know
