Nope, he didn't drive it to far. In fact it is still in the grocery stores parking lot. The owner is the U. S. Navy and had overnight duty on his ship today so we will try to fix it tomorrow.
Is it normal for these to just pop out? What would cause it to fail?
Thanks
Doug

doug there is problay a screw that goes through the middle of it and a small bar that goes in side the block that works like a molly mount. When you tighten the screw it pulls against the block and that is suppose to hold it.Screw problay rusted off and it fell out.
