Q: Just yesterday I noticed as I was going down the road my rear driver side wheel wouldn't move, any suggestions

asked by on January 25, 2017

At first I didn't notice my wheel wasn't moving probably because I was on ice and was just sliding along, but once I heard a noise I observed more and that's when I noticed my tire wouldn't move so I just parked it.

My car has 136000 miles.
My car has an automatic transmission.
