Consumer Description

I WAS MAKING A SLOW LEFT HAND TURN FROM A STOP SIGN AND MY 2003 GMC ENVOY DRIVE TRAIN HAD LOCKED UP CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO COME TO A DEAD STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. WHEN THIS OCCURRED I NOTICED THE LIGHTS FLASHING FOR THE 4WD AND 4LO SWITCH EVEN THOUGH THE SWITCH HAD NOT BEEN TOUCHED. THE VEHICLE CORRECTED ITSELF AND 15 SEC LATER AS I WAS MAKING A LEFT TURN INTO MY DRIVEWAY THE VEHICLE DRIVE TRAIN LOCKED UP ONCE AGAIN. TO REMEDY THIS I PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND THERE WAS A LOUD CLUNK AND THE LIGHTS WENT OUT AND OPERATION WENT BACK TO NORMAL. *NM
