The driver called the manager, who replied that such situations often happen with the new transfer case.

The story repeated itself already on Volgogradsky Prospekt. Again a call to the manager, again recommendations to tug the transfer case, in general, everything is in a circle. Then it began to repeat more and more often - not every 20 kilometers, but every 10.
