Have you checked the wheel nuts are all done up? Several members have paid the price for making this same error. Don't keep driving it around until you get it sorted.

Take off the rear wheels and make sure they are seated on the spacer ring if its there, its a plastic ring that takes the weight of the wheel oved the hub.

You can jack the rear wheels up and spin them, just to check for clearance, but I doubt thats it, but its worth doing.
Really you should take it back, like, yesterday.
