I MADE A FREE RIGHT HAND TURN INTO TRAFFIC FROM A STATIONARY POSITION BUT WHEN I ATTEMPTED TO ACCELERATE THERE WAS A LOUD THUNKING/RATCHETING SOUND FROM UNDER MY CAR AND IT WOULDN'T MOVE. I WAS ALMOST REAR ENDED BY AN ANGRY DRIVER AND I WAS FURIOUSLY HONKED AT BY MULTIPLE PEOPLE. MECHANIC INFORMED ME THAT THE NOISE IS FROM A FAILING TRANSFER CASE WHICH SEEMS TO BE A COMMON ISSUE FOR THIS PARTICULAR VEHICLE BASED ON WEB RESEARCH.
