| 2004 | EQUIPMENT:MECHANICAL | WE CURRENTLY HAVE A LANDROVER FREELANDER THAT IS ON ITS THIRD ENGINE (WITHIN 1 YEAR). WE ARE CONTINUOUSLY INCONVENIENCED WITH THIS VEHICLE HAVING ISSUES THAT BRING IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY CLAIM TO FIX THE ISSUE AND WITHIN 3,000 MILES WE ARE BACK AGAIN LIKE CLOCKWORK. LANDROVER DOES KNOW ABOUT THIS ISSUE, AND WE HAVE A VEHICLE THAT WE COULD NEVER SELL TO ANYONE ELSE, PURCHASED AN EXTENDED WARRANTY ON, AND HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO RECOURSE WITH. I BROUGHT THE CAR IN LAST WEEK FOR THEM TO FIX AN ISSUE, SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON AND I WAS INHALING COOLANT FUMES; THEY STATED THAT IT WAS FIXED, NO SOONER THAN 4 HOURS AFTER I PICKED THE CAR UP ON FRIDAY AFTERNOON, DID THE SAME CHECK ENGINE LIGHT GO ON AND I CURRENTLY AM DRIVING AROUND INHALING FUMES FROM COOLANT AGAIN. WHEN DO THESE ISSUES GET RESOLVED. IT HAS BEEN OVER A YEAR OF THE SAME ISSUES WITH A CAR, THAT THE SALES WOMAN'S WORDS TO MY HUSBAND WERE, THE FIRST VEHICLE CREATED BY LANDROVER IS STILL ON THE ROAD. MY CAR WAS PURCHASED NEW, HAS APPROX. 57,600 MILES ON IT, IT IS 5 YEARS OLD, AND FOR THE LAST YEAR AND A HAS HAD NOTHING BUT ISSUES. I ASKED THE SERVICE MANAGER HOW MANY OF THESE MODELS HAVE HAD ISSUES STATED, MORE THAN HE WOULD LIKE TO ADMIT. PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHAT CAN BE DONE. AT THIS POINT MY HUSBAND WOULD LIKE THE EXTENDED WARRANTY MONEY BACK AND AT LEAST HALF OF THE BOOK VALUE OF THE VEHICLE. *TR |
