Consumer Description

I WAS TOWING MY 2005 JEEP WRANGLER WHEN A PASSING MOTORIST SIGNALED ME THAT THERE WAS A PROBLEM. I STOPPED AND CHECKED THE JEEP WHICH WAS COVERED WITH AN OILY MATERIAL. I HAD A TOW TRUCK TOW THE JEEP TO SAN MARCOS CHRYSLER/JEEP. IT WAS DETERMINED THAT IT WAS NECESSARY TO REBUILD THE FRONT AND REAR DIFFERENTIALS AND REPLACE THE TRANSFER CASE AND BOTH FRONT AXLES. THEY CLAIMED IT WAS CAUSED BY HAVING A ONE SIZE LARGER TIRE ON THE FRONT TIRES THAN THE BACK TIRES. THIS WOULD ONLY CAUSE THE PROBLEM IF THE CAR WAS DRIVEN IN 4 WHEEL DRIVE WHICH IT NEVER WAS. *TR
