Example complaints

Transmission and drivetrain: “I purchased a 2000 Range Rover from bear valley rovers in atlanta and the vehicle was/is in pristine shape . When I purchased it, it had 43,000 miles with 5,000 miles remaining on the warranty. At 53,000 the transmission went bad and had to be replaced. This is not normal that a transmission would only last 53,000 miles and the vehicle has never been off-road a day in its life.”

All the cars systems went out before I got it off the road (30 seconds from the first smoke) and the smoke was billowing out from under the hood. I jumped out and tried to open the hood, still thinking it was overheating, but I was unable to find the catch. I decided to move away from the car just in case. …”
