Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING TO WORK AND MY FRONT AXLE BROKE. I ALSO HAD TWO PREVIOUS PROBLEMS WITH THE TRUCK WERE IT WOULD ACCELERATE ON IT'S OWN TO 80 MILES A HOUR AND THE ONLY WAY TO STOP WAS TO SHIFT INTO NEUTRAL, EMERGENCY BRAKE AND PRESS ON THE BRAKES AND PRAY. I WAS OUT OF A CAR OVER THIRTY DAYS BETWEEN THE TWO TIMES TRYING TO REPAIR THE ACCELERATION. *JB
