Consumer Description

MY WIFE CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP AT A STOP SIGN. WHEN SHE TRIED TO PULL OFF, THE VEHICLE REFUSED TO MOVE. TWO GOOD SAMARITANS PUSHED HER INTO A PARKING LOT. HAD THIS HAPPENED ON THE INTERSTATE, IT COULD HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. INSPECTION A FEW DAYS LATER REVEALED RUSTED AND STRIPPED SPLINES ON THE TRANSMISSION OUTPUT SHAFT AND TRANSFER CASE MATING PART. DURING MY RESEARCH, I FOUND THAT THIS IS A FAIRLY COMMON PROBLEM CAUSED BY ELECTROLYTIC MIGRATION DUE TO A LACK OF GREASE ON THE MATING PARTS DURING ASSEMBLY. PLEASE NOTE THE ABSOLUTELY CLEAN AREAS OF THE TRANSMISSION AND TRANSFER CASE APART FROM THE RUST DISLODGED DURING DISASSEMBLY.
