3 finger drag cursor sticking issue

Almost every time I drag windows around using 3 finger drag, the cursor gets "stuck" to the window. So the next tap I make drags/jumps the window away to a different location on the screen. Incredibly frustrating. Does anyone know a fix for this? Any idea at all? Brand new 2021 Macbook Pro 16 inch, m1 pro chip. It only happens with trackpads using 3 finger drag (which i use CONSTANTLY), it doesn't happen with mouses. It's so frustrating I just want to return it after waiting 2 months for it to arrive.

MacBook Pro 16″, macOS 12.2

Does this occur for a different user, e.g., Guest ?
