What owners report
I purchased this vehicle on [XXX] The vehicle was delivered to me on January 15th. This incident occurred [XXX]. The Engine system failed and is available for inspection. The engine failed and began smoking profusely which inhabited my ability to see as well as other drivers within distance, which put all drivers and passengers at risk. The problem has been confirmed by an independent service center. The vehicle was inspected by a NYS certified mechanic. The check engine light came one prior to the failure and was noticed 2 days after purchasing the vehicle. Which is when this incident occurred. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
THIS ISSUE OCCURRED IMMEDIATELY AFTER LAND ROVER REPLACE THE RECALLED AIRBAGS WITH A COMPLIMENTARY OIL CHANGE. MY MECHANIC SAYS THE TIMING CHAIN GUIDES WEAR PRE MATURELY CAUSING KNOCK IN MOTOR WHICH COULD LEAD TO CATASTROPHIC FAILURE. THERE IS AN UPDATED TIMING CHAIN , HOWEVER THIS JOB IS 2-4K DOLLARS TO COMPLETE. THE ENGINE HAD AN ODD KNOCKING SOUND BUT I HAD NO INDICATOR LIGHTS TO WARN ME TO SERVICE IT OR DO ANYTHING. LAND ROVER SERVICED MY VEHICLE AND DID WARN ME OR MAKE THE REPAIRS. WARRANTY IS OUT. I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE NEW AT OVER $100,000 TO HAVE ENGINE PROBLEMS AFTER ONLY 8 YEARS IS ROBBERY!
THE CAR WAS LEAKING GASOLINE. LIKE ANOTHER COMPLAINT ON THIS SITE AND OTHERS ON THE INTERNET, A PLASTIC FLANGE ON THE FUEL PUMP CRACKS. THE DEALERSHIP HAS NO IDEA OF THIS KNOWN PROBLEM. I BELIEVE THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL ITEM BECAUSE LEAKING FUEL IS UNSAFE AND CAN CAUSE A CATASTROPHIC FIRE, EXPLOSION AND LOSS OF LIFE.
WHEN I'M DRIVING ON THE PARKWAY THE VEHICLE ACCELERATES ON IT'S OWN TO 100MPH+ THEN IT CUTS OFF.
