2019 Land Rover Discovery

ONE MONTH AFTER PURCHASING MY LAND ROVER DISCOVERY I NOTICED THERE WAS A LAG TIME WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE WHEN MAKING A TURN. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID IT SHOULD BE RESOLVED BY UPDATING THE SYSTEM. THEY UPDATED IT BUT IT CONTINUED TO HAVE THE LAG ISSUE SO I COMPLAINED AGAIN AND THEY SAID IT'S THE NATURE OF THE CAR. I TOLD THEM THIS WAS VERY DANGEROUS AND THEY CLAIM THEY HAVEN'T RECEIVED ENOUGH COMPLAINTS TO SAY IT'S AN ISSUE WITH CAR. I ALSO HAVE HAD OTHER ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS SUCH AS THE NAVIGATION SCREEN GOING BLANK WHILE DRIVING OR NOT COMING ON AT ALL AND ALSO MY REMOTE KEY FOBS DO NOT WORK ALL THE TIME. EVEN WITH THE REMOTES IN MY HAND NEAR THE CONSOLE THE CAR WILL SAY THEY ARE NOT DETECTED. I BROUGHT IT BACK TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID THEY WERE FINE. TODAY, I RECEIVED A RECALL FROM LAND ROVER STATING THERE ARE VARIOUS ELECTRICAL ISSUES WITH CAR WHERE THE VEHICLE COULD CUT OUT WHILE IN MOTION AND MAY LOSE ALL ELECTRICAL POWER. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP TO FIND OUT THEY ARE BOOKED OUT FOR 3 WEEKS SO I WILL HAVE TO CONTINUE TO DRIVE THIS UNSAFE CAR. I THINK IT'S VERY IRRESPONSIBLE OF LAND ROVER TO PUT OWNERS IN A POSITION TO CONTINUE TO DRIVE A VERY UNSAFE CAR. THESE CARS SHOULD BE TAKEN OFF THE ROAD.

NOV 16 2019 I BOUGHT I WAS ON ROAD ON FLORIDA AND SUDDENLY ALL LIGHTS COME ON DASH BOARD I TOOK NEAR CAR DEALER HE CHECK WITH CODE READER AND EVERY THING OK I DROVE BACK TO DAYTON,OHIO SITTING AT DEALERAND I HAD SAME PROBLEM AND MY VEHICLE IS THEIR ALMOST 9 ( WEEKS ) AND I NOT FIXED YET I TRY TO CALL CORPORATE OFFICE TRY TO TALK TO THEM I AM NOT GETTING RESONSE FROM THEM LOOKS LIKE MY CAR IS NOT FIXEBLE LOOKS LIKE IT IS A LEMON SO PLEASE CAN YOU TRY OUT WHAT IS WRONG THANK YOU

THERE'S A WATER-PROOFING DEFECT WITH THE DISCOVERY LAND ROVER (AT LEAST 2017-2019). I PREVIOUSLY PURCHASED NEW A 2017 DISCOVERY NEW, AND WATER ENTERED FROM THE ROOF AND WINDSHIELD AND THE DEALER REPLACED IT WITH A 2019. SAME ISSUE IS OCCURRING - WITH RAIN WATER ENTERING FROM WINDSHIELD AND ROOF AND FLOODING INTERIOR OF CAR. APPEARS TO BE A DEFECT IN MANUFACTURING THAT CAUSES SAFETY ISSUES AS WATER IS LITERALLY DRIPPING ON THE DRIVER AND FRONT INTERIOR WHILE I DRIVE THE CAR.

BOUGHT CAR LAST MAY, 2019, AND WITHIN FOUR MONTHS WAS BACK AND FORTH TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIRS. WATER GOT INSIDE MY VEHICLE FROM THE FRONT WINDSHIELD WITH WATER EVERYWHERE INSIDE, INCLUDING THE DASHBOARD, SCREEN AND MAIN CONSOLE. DEALERSHIP SAID IT WAS FROM THE WINDOW RECALLS, BUT MINE NEVER WAS RECALLED. THEY SAID THE SEALS WHERE FAULTY. FAULTY ENGINE O2 SENSOR (THREE FAULTY CODES) RIGHT WHEN I WAS DRIVING BACK FROM MY WINDSHIELD REPAIR. TURNED AROUND AND DROPPED CAR BACK OFF. CAMERA SYSTEM FAULT MESSAGE WAS ON THE SCREEN. THEY CLAIM NOTHING WAS WRONG. THIS WAS AFTER WATER GOT INTO MY CAR. BASICALLY, I'M JUST WAITING FOR THE NEXT THING TO HAPPEN WITH MY CAR WITH SO MUCH WATER GETTING INSIDE THE CABIN AND MAIN CONSOLE AREA. DEALERSHIP SAID THEY CAN DO NOTHING ABOUT IT AS EVERYTHING IS WORKING NOW. VEHICLE WAS SITTING OUTSIDE WHEN WATER GOT INSIDE. WHEN OTHER ITEMS HAPPENED, I WAS DRIVING. THESE HAPPENED ON JUNE OF 2019, SEPTEMBER OF 2019 AND NOVEMBER 0F 2019.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 LAND ROVER DISCOVERY. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE LOST POWER AND/OR FAILED TO ACCELERATE. IN ADDITION, THE CHECK ENGINE AND COOLANT WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO LAND ROVER CARLSBAD (5550 PASEO DEL NORTE, CARLSBAD, CA 92008, (760) 494-5600) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE FUEL IGNITION AND SPARK PLUGS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: 8000662736. THE CONTACT REQUESTED THE MANUFACTURER BUY BACK THE VEHICLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 6,000.

THIS VEHICLE HAS A VERY UNSAFE CONDITION WHEN ACCELERATING AWAY FROM AN INTERSECTION, WHETHER STOPPED OR AT A LOW SPEED, THERE IS A SERIOUS LAG BEFORE ACCELERATION KICKS IN AND THE VEHICLE ACCELERATES. IT'S LIKE THE VEHICLE IS WAITING (WAY) TOO LONG TO DOWNSHIFT AND PULL AWAY, AND WANTS INSTEAD TO SLOOOOOOOWLY BUILD SPEED WHICH IS VERY UNSAFE AT INTERSECTIONS. THE ONLY ALTERNATIVE IS TO FLOOR IT, RESULTING IN UNSAFE AND JERKY ACCELERATION.
