I WAS TOLD BY THE LAND ROVER SERVICE MANAGER SHON TORRES THAT THE STEERING COLUMNS ON VEHICLES OF THIS MANUFACTURING YEAR AND THE YEARS SURROUNDING IT HAVE OFTEN HAD ISSUES WHERE THE STEERING COLUMN WILL STOP RECOGNIZING THE KEY. HE WENT ON TO SAY THAT MANY TIMES NO KEYS CAN BE REPROGRAMMED TO THE STEERING COLUMN AND AT THAT POINT YOU WOULD HAVE TO PURCHASE A NEW DYEING COLUMN WHICH COSTS AROUND $10,000. THIS HAS HAPPENS ONCE SO FAR AND I HAD TO PURCHASE 2 NEW KEYS AND HAVE THEM PROGRAMMED. ONE DAY I DROVE THE CAR TO WORK AND WHEN I FOR IN IT TO LEAVE FOR THE NIGHT, IT WOULD NOT DO ANYTHING WHEN I TURNED THE KEY, NOT EVEN WOULD THE LIGHTS COME ON. #2 IS AN ONGOING ISSUE WITHIN THE SAME MODELS THAT THERE IS A LEAK THAT HAPPENS SOMEWHERE NEAR THE REAR WIRING WHEN IT RAINS IT CAUSES THERE TO BE A FAULTY CONNECTION TO THE RADIO/NAVIGATION SYSTEM AND CAUSES A SHORT IN THE ABILITY OF THE RADIO TO STAY ON AND PERFORM CORRECTLY. THIS IS AN ISSUE THAT HAPPENS OFTEN. SOMETIMES SEVERAL TIMES...

THIS VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK BY THE MANUFACTURER FOR ELECTRICAL ISSUES IT WAS THEN RESOLD. I JUST PURCHASED IT AND IT HAS SERIOUS ELECTRICAL ISSUES. I HAVE OWNED IT A MONTH AND IT HAD CODES WITHIN 48 HOURS OF PURCHASE. SYSTEM FAILURE CODES. THE BATTERY IS GOOD AND IS DRAINED EVERY NIGHT AND EVERY TIME I GO TO WORK. THIS VECHICLE IS ESSENTIALLY USULESS AND I JUST PURCHASED IT. IT FLASHES RANDOM TIRE PRESSURE SYSTEM FAILURE CODES WHEN IT WANTS. JUST RANDOM. IT IS ONE THING AFTER ANOTHER. LUCKILY NOTHING SUPER SAFETY RELATED YET. IT WAS MANUFACTURED WRONG AND WAS NEVER REPAIRED AND NOW I AM STUCK WITH A VEHICLE I CAN'T USE AFTER I HAVE MADE ONE PAYMENT ON IT.
