Consumer Description

WE WERE BACKING SLOWLY OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY. THE VAN SOUNDED LIKE SOMETHING WAS CAUGHT UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE AND WAS DRAGGING. WE GOT OUT OF THE CAR TO SEE WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS. WE NOTICED THE REAR WHEELS WERE BOTH TILTED INWARD AND THE REAR AXLE WAS DRAGGING ON THE GROUND, DAMAGING THE DRIVEWAY. THE VAN HAD TO BE TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC IN WHICH THE REAR AXLE WAS REPLACED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 72,000 MILES. *TR
