Consumer Description

DRIVING IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD ABOUT 20 MPH COMING UP TO A STOP SIGN HEAR THIS HOWLING NOISE IF YOU WILL. THEN WHEN I HEAR IT INSTANTLY SOMETHING GRABBED AND LOCKED AND STOPPED ME! I'VE BEEN HAVING ISSUES WITH MY TRANSMISSION SLIPPING, WELL NOT SLIPPING BUT BETWEEN GEARS. LIKE THE RPMS WERE GOING UP BUT NOTHING WAS MOVING. I'M NOT TALKING ABOUT THE RPM GAUGE ON THE TRUCK GOING UP, IT'S JUST A REV UP SOUND. THEN WILL CATCH AND GO I'M GUESSING IT'S ALL WITH THE TRANSMISSION. I'M JUST GLAD I WAS ONLY DOING 20 MPH INSTEAD OF HWY SPEED WHEN IT LOCKED UP
