ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN
FOR THE PAST 2 YEARS THIS VEHICLE HAS PUT ITSELF IN NEUTRAL WHILE UNDER POWER. ON EVERY OCCASION IT WAS WHILE DECELERATING AND THEN WHEN FOOT IS LET OFF THE BRAKE THE CAR WILL HAVE NO POWER. THE D FOR DRIVE ON THE DASH WILL FLASH WITH A RING AROUND IT AND I WILL BE STUCK ON THE ROAD FOR THE LONGEST OF A MINUTE NOW WITH ZERO POWER. FIRST TIMES WERE ON LOCAL STREETS , AND ONE OF THE LAST TIMES IT HAPPENED WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY IN THE MIDDLE LANE. THE PROBLEM HAS ONLY GOTTEN WORSE HOWEVER. NOW THE CAR WHILE MOVING IF YOU APPLY THE BRAKE TO A STOP IT WILL COMPLETELY SHUT THE CAR OFF AND PUT ITSELF IN PARK. THIS IS NOT THE AUTO START FEATURE. I LET OFF THE BRAKE THE SHIFT KNOB TURNED ITSELF TO PARK AND THEN RECESSED ITSELF IN THE CONSOLE AND WOULDN'T TURN BACK ON UNTIL AFTER 3 ATTEMPTS TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. ALSO ASSOCIATED WITH THE VEHICLE. ON INITIAL START THE RANGE ROVER WILL NOT DEPLOY THE REAR VIEW MIRRORS, THEY STAY FOLDED IN UNTIL YOU TURN OFF AND TURN ON THE CAR REPEATABLE. AT A STOP WHILE CAR IS RUNNING THE REAR TAILGATE WILL OPEN. THIS HAPPENED RIGHT IN THE DEALERSHIP PARKING LOT AFTER I PICKED IT UP FOR "SERVICE" AND THEN DOWN THE STREET AT A GAS STATION IT OPENED ITSELF 3 TIMES IN THE COURSE OF 10 MINUETS. ON EVERY SINGLE OCCASION THE CAR HAS BEEN RETURNED BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND EVEN TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. EVERY SINGLE TIME THE CAR HAS BEEN RETURNED WHILE WE WERE TOLD NOTHING IS WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE. YET THE PROBLEM STILL HAPPENS. VERY UNSAFE, ESPECIALLY WHILE GOING FROM 60MPH TO NOT BEING ABLE TO ACCELERATE, THEN COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY. AT THIS TIME I WILL NOT NAME THE DEALERSHIP ASSOCIATE WITH SUCH HORRIBLE HELP AS THERE IS A ONGOING INVESTIGATION.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
TAILGATE SENSOR MALFUNCTION CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO HONK WHEN THE SURFACE OF THE STREET IS WET AND REFLECTIVE. THIS CAN HAPPEN AT STOP-LIGHT, ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN STOPPED AND EVEN PARKING (STATIONARY). IT DOES NOT HONK WHEN MOVING BUT CAUSING HAZARD AS OTHER DRIVER THINK THERE IS SOMETHING TO BE CAREFUL ABOUT. DEALERSHIP/MANUFACTURER TRY TO RESOLVE IT BUT WAS NOT SUCCESSFUL WITH NO LONG TERM FIX ON THE HORIZON.

STRUCTURE:BODY, SERVICE BRAKES, ENGINE
MY VEHICLE HAS BRAKES THAT CATCH SO HARD WHEN YOU PRESS THE PEDAL LIGHTLY THAT THE FRONT END OF THE CAR DIPS DOWN. I WAS EXITING AN OFFRAMP AND THE CAR SLID SIDEWAYS AND I WAS NEAR HAVING A COLLISION. IT HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP FOR THIS NUMEROUS TIMES. NEIL AT LAND ROVER OF SAN DIEGO TODAY TOLD ME THAT HE DID NOTICE IT WHEN WE DROVE DIFFERENT CARS BACK TO BACK. THE CAR IS ALSO LEAKING COOLANT AND YOU CAN SMELL IT IN THE CABIN. FROM WHAT I READ THIS IS HAZARDOUS. THIS HAS NOT BEEN RESOLVED BY THE DEALER AND THEY JUST TRY TO COVER IT UP BY TOPPING OFF THE COOLANT. IT IS SUPPOSED TO BE A SEALED PRESSURIZED SYSTEM. MY LAST PROBLEM IS THE REAR HATCH DOES NOT ALWAYS CLOSE PROPERLY OR ALL THE WAY. TOLD BY SHOP FOREMAN THAT THERE WAS AN "ADVISORY" TO CHANGE OUT THE BOLTS THAT HOLD THE REAR HATCH ON. I DID NOT SEE ANY TSB FOR THAT ANYWHERE. THESE ARE ALL SAFETY ISSUES AND LAND ROVER IS NOT WILLING TO HELP ME GET THEM RESOLVED.
