Back up car and heard a clunk, then car would not move. I jacked it up and tried to spin tires. They would not turn. I continued to try and move tires by turn left, then right, it freed up and spun fine. Have driven it two days and unable to recreate problem, but, I would like to resolve before it happens again as I may not be as lucky next time.
