Well, I went to pull out of the driveway just now. The brakes are hung up. Anyone else have this? Parking brake is off, I even cycled that a couple of times. Unhooked the battery and tried that too. Nothing!

So, now I'm pissed off because I'm supposed to leave in the AM for a trip to WI. (16 hours one way).

This one is very new, It seems it maybe something mechanical instead of electric. Are you sure it is the brake?

not sure at all. That's just what it feels like. You notice it the most when you have the wheels turned almost all the way and try to move forward or back. I just had a flatbed come and take it to the dealer. I hope to know more first thing in the AM.

This is a good point - I have been in 4HI lock on dry pavement (sitting still) then put it in regular 4HI. I drive off slowly and even though the lights say 4HI something does not feel right. It feels like the brakes are on and you are pulling the rear wheels along. In my H3 it took about 15 seconds for the transmission to kick into 4HI or maybe I had to get over 10 MPH or something.

I don't think this is timgco's problem but a good point none the less.

Well it turns out it was a IHNFC issue. So, I'm going to pick it up and drive it. No codes. So, I will have to get it to do it for them to figure out.

well, we drove 366 miles so far. 600 more on Sat. 80mph on average. 13mpg with 35's. That's pretty close to what I was getting with the SUT and 37's. But it was a little windy too.
