Consumer Description

WHILE AT A COMPLETE STOP, WITH FOOT ON THE BRAKE, THERE WAS TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF POWER BEING TRANSFERRED THROUGH THE TRANSMISSION TO MAKE THE TRUCK SURGE FORWARD. I HAD TO PUT BOTH FEET ON THE BRAKE PEDAL AND PULL ON THE STEERING WHEEL TO STOP THE VEHICLE. AT ONE POINT, SITTING AT A FOUR WAY INTERSECTION I RELEASED THE BRAKE PEDAL AND I IMMEDIATELY SLID SIDEWAYS UNCONTROLLABLY ACROSS THE INTERSECTION. THANKFULLY THERE WERE NO OTHER VEHICLES AT THE INTERSECTION OTHERWISE THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN A GUARANTEED COLLISION. EVERY STOPLIGHT OR STOP SIGN WAS LIKE A HOLE SHOT WITH A TRANSBRAKE. *TR
