NHTSA complaint #11278289, filed 2019-11, 45 miles“Our new Range Rover is creating a squealing noise from the interior electronics/AC unit.

Our vehicle is now 3 months old, and has spent 2.5 months in service. After recently getting our car back, the sound came back right away. The service dept. Is clueless, and already had put over 200 miles on our car testing it in real world conditions. …”
