Consumer Description

PULLING OUT OF A PARKING LOT TURNING RIGHT TRIED TO ACCELERATE SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF TRAFFIC BEHIND ME AFTER TURNING AND I COULDN'T GO ANYWHERE. PULLED INTO THE NEAREST PARKING LOT APPROX. 50 FEET OR MORE PILED INTO PARKIN SPOT. THEN SAT FOR A COUPLE INURED WRENCH ILLUMINATED ON DASH BOARD. TRIED TO BACK UP TO STRAIGHTEN VEHICLE AND IT MADE A LOUD CLUNK NOISE WHEN PUTTING IN REVERSE. AFTER TURNING OFF CAR WENT TO RESTART AFTER 30 MINUTES CAR MADE LOUD CLUNK AGAIN WITHOUT BEING IN GEAR. AT THIS TIME IT ISN'T A RECALLED ITEM JUST. TSB AND NOT GETTING ANY RESOLUTION AS TO WHY THIS ISNT A RECALL ITEM. APPROX. 45 MINUTES PRIOR TO THIS INCIDENT I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY DRIVING THE SPEED LIMIT. WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED IF THE FAILURE OCCURRED AT THIS POINT. THANK GOD IT DIDN'T AS I WOULDN'T BE WRITING THIS LETTER. FOR THE SAFETY OF OTHERS THIS SHOULD BE CONSIDERED A RECALL ITEM.
