| Description of the problem | I was at the stop sign on the braga bridge in ma. I started to enter traffic when there was a loud bang and then a bunch of banging, i instantly stopped on the bridge just past the stop sign. I put the truck in park and shut off the engine, i jumped out of the truck but it began to roll back. I had my wife hold the break while i checked. The truck would roll backwards but not forwards. The drive shaft was lying on the ground. We had to wait for a tow truck to move the truck. A flat bed showed up and could not get the truck to roll forward. He then continued to upset me by dragging the truck onto the flat bed as it was the only way to move it. |
