Has anyone ever had there ring and pinnion gears fail? apparantly thats what mine did.
I was doing about 50 and i heard a loud thud from the bakc which shot my car forword and then it would not engage anymore.
Werid thing is, that when i put my car into park it still rolls around like when im in neutral.
When i put the car in Drive/Reverse i hear a nasty clunk.
what do i do?
