Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING SOMEWHERE IN BETWEEN 15-25 MILES AN HOUR, WITH NO WARNING WHATSOEVER, MY 2005 LAND ROVER RANGE ROVER LOCKED UP IMMEDIATELY AND MADE A HORRIBLE GRINDING SOUND. THE CAR FROZE UP AND WOULD NOT PROCEED FORWARD AND I AM ASSUMING BECAUSE I WAS ACCELERATING AND BROUGHT TO AN ABRUPT STOP, THE CAR THEN STARTED TO SHAKE. I PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND WENT BACK INTO DRIVE, ONLY FOR THE CAR TO IMMEDIATELY MAKE THAT LOUD HORRIBLE GRINDING SOUND AGAIN. THE CAR WAS NOT DRIVABLE IN THE DRIVE POSITION, OR REVERSE. I HAD TO PUT IT INTO NEUTRAL AND PUSH IT HOME. I JUST WOULD LIKE TO NOTE THAT THE SAFETY OF MYSELF AND PASSENGER COULD HAVE BEEN PUT IN JEOPARDY BECAUSE I DID JUST EXIT THE FREEWAY BEFORE THIS HAPPENED. I ALSO WOULD LIKE TO STATE THAT THIS PROBLEM SHOULD BE RECALLED, AS I HAVE ALREADY FOUND MANY WEBSITES COMPLAINING OF THIS ISSUE. I COULD HAVE BEEN INJURED AND HOPE THAT SOMEONE INVESTIGATES THIS MATTER. *TR
