[QUOTE="Paid-over-in-Maine, post: 492090, member: 19023"] I had a problem with my truck one year, it developed a vibration. I called it in and the mechanic on duty asked if the lug nuts were tight, and if the wheels turned. Yes, so keep going. Later it got so bad that I started to head back to the center to get a different truck. About 4 miles from the center it caught fire. It vibrated so much the bolts for the starter loosened up and the starer grounded out against the frame. There happened to be a local fireman that stopped and said that he would be back with a truck....well, he brought the whole fire dept. with him. If you could have seen them trying to unhook the cable from the battery! They couldn't get them off, and ended up cutting them off. No damage to the cargo. Had to go back out to finish the 20 stops I had left. [/QUOTE]
