Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“I am the owner of a 2005 Range Rover. I purchased the vehicle used in 2006 with 60,000 mile's on it. In june 2007, the front differential broke while in the middle of two busy intersections. Traffic was halted until some men pushed my car to the side of the road. There was no warning leading up to this breakdown. In fact, the car was just at the dealership for the 75,000 mile checkup. Not to mention Range Rover charged me $3,000.00 for this repair.. The most recent front differential breakdown was more serious since it occurred on the expressway in the middle of nowhere. …”
