At that point the cam helical threads are about to disappear into the lens body. My vote is to take it back and look for another one since you just bought it. If not then take it to Leica USA in New Jersey but it does not make sense fro you to have to pay for the repair. I have done some experimentation with my lens and if you apply a sideways pressure to the lens mount, it does bind up. As it is fine off the camera, and is the same on both cameras, I would say the lens's bayonet mount is bent. Perhaps it was dropped or banged before you bought it. Take it back...
