Your money is well spent somewhere else. Land Rover Charges fortune
for a Piece of Junk. Paid $40K plus for mine.
With a new vheicle at this price you should be sleeping well for years
before worrying about a major problem. NOT if you own a land rover.
Lots of immediate deffects were taken care of by the dealer and I did
not feel much of the pain in my pocket, but once the honeymoon is over
I woke-up and see what I have gotten myself into. A gas hungry piece
of junk that is more problem than its worth and a dealership that has
been waiting to get me.
I am one deeply disappointed customer and user of LandRover. I bought
my discovery series II in May of 2000, and paid $40,000+ with optional
items.
I just replaced my tires at discount tire co and took their advise to
do wheel allignment. Thats when a technician noticed an oil leak
developing around the engine. I rushed to my LandRover dealer next day
to check it out.
My dealer told me that my warranty has expired last week and they will
have to charge me about $150 just to diagnose the oil leak problem and
other problem I have brought up to him related to the so called ,
worthless, climate control system that rarely works right.
I was so unhappy that i did not want to pay for anything. I told them
that I will dig a grave and burry the junk if you are going to tag
hundreds just to look at the problem.
I was stunned for two reasons:
1. I should not really be running into major engine problems with a 4
year old $40K vheicle in such a short time.
2. My warranty expired a week ago but I am sure it took weeks and
months for this problem to develop and become visible.
I guess they know that as a user i am going to discover how worthless
junk their product is and did not value my relationship with them.
The decision is yours but I suggest you look somewhere else or look at
an option of leasing for a period of 4 years (covered by warranty) if
you are so stubborn to listen to others and thing you got to have it.
