While driving on freeway (in middle of nowhere)car started jerking/shaking/vibrating & clunking/banging sound, felt like driving over millions of nails. Car could barely drive at 40 mph in slow lane w/hazards until I could get to safety an hour away. Car cannot go above 5 mph to get it home. Rpm going wacky no power when step on gas but engine revs. Engine light on steady then flashes when car gets going at only 5 mph (cannot go faster) but I finally got the car home & I was safe. Now car can't be driven & must be towed to a garage. Car has oil leak & I replaced the oil pan along with faulty alternator which killed battery just 2 months ago. Bought car used 2/1/20. Has 110,000 miles now. Engine hot/smells hot but temp gauge doesn't reflect that. I was nearly killed on freeway by passing tractor trailers & traffic having to speed by me recklessly when it happened to avoid collision-no warning. Very dangerous & scary. I see there are nearly 600 other cases exactly like this!!! single mom with 2 kids in car - very dangerous. This should be recalled. It sounds by reading complaints that it's the transfer case?.
