Thankfully i was not on the highway or i would have been killed!! The car was towed and the diagnoses indicated that the u joint had sheared off the drive shaft and pulled out the shifter cable.

In fact during the month of june the car had been to inskip nissan for a oil change and multi point inspection and to a local garage for a state of ri safety and emissions inspection. |
