    LOUD NOISE COMING FROM 4WHEEL DRIVE SHAFT,TOOK TO DEALER AND WAS INFORMED WE NEEDED TO REPLACE THE TRANSITION CASE. DEALER THEN TOLD US THAT IT WAS DEFECTED FROM THE START AND TRIED TO ORDER A REPLACEMENT. WAS INFORMED CAR WASN'T SAFE TO BE DRIVING AND THE PART IS ON "BACKORDER". IT HAS BEEN 3 WEEKS THAT WE HAVE BEEN DRIVING AN UNSAFE CAR AND THEY REFUSE TO GIVE US A LOANER OR TELL US ANYTHING MORE ABOUT WHY AND WHEN THE NEW PART IS COMING IN. GIVING US THE RUN AROUND. IT'S OBVIOUS THEY DON'T WANT TO FIX IT AND ARE IN NO HURRY. THE PART COSTS$1300. IF OUR YEAR AND MODEL CAME THIS WAY, HOW MANY OTHERS? IS THERE REALLY A "BACKORDER" ON THIS PART?
