Consumer Description

I WAS SLOWLY ENTERING A PARKING SPACE. I PRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL AND THE ENGINE SPEED INCREASED TO MAXIMUM RPM. I JAMMED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE AND THREW THE TRANSMISSION INTO "PARK." A GREAT CLOUD OF BLUE SMOKE ISSUED FORTH FROM THE SPINNING TIRES. THIS NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE AND IT'S DEFINITELY A PROBLEM WITH THE TRUCK AND NOT MY FOOT! SEVERAL YEARS AGO, AS A PEDESTRIAN, I SAW THE EXACT SAME THING HAPPEN TO A JEEP CHEROKEE AT A STOP SIGN. *TR
