I was going down the road this morning on the way to work and all of a sudden lurch and loss of power. I thought I had hit something in the road. The engine was running , I was unable t go forward and only backup in reverse. I backed it into a parking lot and called a tow truck.When they tried to get it hoisted on the flat bed tow truck, it would not move. The front wheels were locked in place, even in neutral. The back wheels could spin.
I have been pretty good with keeping up with maintenance intervals, changing the fluid, etc. I checked the fluid levels when I pulled over, Transmission, oil, radiator were all good.
I could hear something scraping or dragging when I backed it up.
There was no fluid leaking that I could see or anything stuck underneath the truck.
It's got 134,000 Miles, is a 2006 RTL and has had the water pump, timing belt changed at 100K. I ddint see any corrosion of the line coming out of the radiator at the bottom that I heard some people mention in the forums. I dont have a clue what happened. Anyone had a similar experience or want to offer some advice?
Thanks.
