Consumer Description

GOING DOWN THE FREEWAY ABOUT 60MPH AROUND 5:30PM. FEEL SOME HUMMING FROM THE VEHICLE FOLLOW BY A LOUD HIGH PITCH. THEN HEARD A LOUD BAND AND PARTS STARTED TO FALL ON THE FREEWAY. THE CAR WAS STILL MOVING WITHOUT POWER AND LIGHT. I WAS ON THE THIRD LANE OF A FIVE LANE FREEWAY. CARS BEHIND ME SLOW DOWN AND ALLOW ME TO PULL TO THE SIDE. I WAS STOP BETWEEN AN ENTRANCE AND THE FREEWAY. AFTER EXAM THE CAR WITH THE SHOP. THE TRANSFER CASE WAS BROKEN INTO PIECES. CALLED JEEP AND WAS TOLD TO TOLL THE CAR TO A DEALER. AFTER DEALER CONFIRMED THE TRANSFER CASE WAS BROKEN INTO PIECES WITH NO CLUE. JEEP REFUSED TO PAY BECAUSE WARRANTY WAS DUE ON 2004 EVEN KNOWING THE VEHICLE HAS ONLY 6500 MILES ON IT. THIS JEEP WAS PARKED IN THE GARAGE MOST OF THE PAST YEARS. AND EVERY TIME WHEN I CAME BACK FROM OVERSEA. OIL AND FILTER CHANGE WERE SERVICE ON THE CAR. I DON'T BELIEVE A 6500MILES TRANSFER CASE WILL JUST BLOW UP. *TR
