Consumer Description

I HEARD A LOUD NOISE (BOOM), GOOD THING I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER ON THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY WHEN THE VEHICLE STOPPED AND STALLED. WHEN THE TOW PEOPLE CAME AND SAW THE DAMAGE UNDERNEATH, IT WAS THE DRIVE SHAFT JOINT THAT BROKE. I COULD HAVE GOTTEN INTO A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. THE VEHICLE IS FAIRLY NEW, MY MECHANIC IS HAVING A HARD TIME LOOKING FOR PARTS (DRIVE SHAFT) AND ALL THE OTHER PARTS THAT WERE DAMAGED BECAUSE OF THIS INCIDENT. *TR
