Welcome to the club, Randy!

If the wheel works manually, that clears the motors and gears as being culprits. Now, the auto positioning may stop short if you start doing things, like start the car and put it in gear, while it is auto adjusting. It is made that way to keep from startling the driver and as a safety precaution.

I always make sure I give the system plenty of time to cycle before moving forward. Not sure if that is your issue but consider it next time it stops short.
