Mini-Turty robot get stuck on corner when navigating

I created a map using a Rhoeby Dynamics Mini-Turty II robot and am using that to do navigation. It works most of the time, but sometimes it gets "stuck" on corners. As far as I can determine, it seems to create a global path that is too close to the obstacle (eg. corner of a wall). Then when it navigates along the path, it appears to just barely enter the "lethal" area and then gives up (goes into recovery behaviors). Is there a way to have the global path take a wider route around obstacles?

The robot is using Ubuntu 16.04 on Raspberry Pi 3, Kinetic, Move Base, DWA planner and AMCL.

To make the robot move far from obstacles decrease the cost-scaling factor it will make the curve less steep in terms of cost. Robot will try not to go too near the obstacles.
