NHTSA Complaint #10225677 — 2002 LAND ROVER FREELANDER

I HAD MY CAR FOR LESS THAN A YEAR WHEN THE RADIATOR/CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WENT OFF. I BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND SAID THE OIL WAS LEAKING INTO THE COOLANT (SOMETHING LIKE THAT.. I KNOW NOTHING ABOUT CARS). THEY HAD MY CAR FOR A COUPLE OF WEEKS TO FIX THE PROBLEM WHICH I WAS TOLD BY THEIR SERVICE MANAGER AT THE TIME WAS A MANUFACTURING PROBLEM WITH ALL LAND ROVER FREELANDERS OF 2002 AND 2003. I BROWSED THE INTERNET FOR MORE INFORMATION, AND SURE ENOUGH, MY CAR WASN'T THE ONLY ONE WITH THIS KIND OF PROBLEM. THANKFULLY, WHEN I HAD ORIGINALLY PURCHASED THE CAR, I HAD ALSO PURCHASES THEIR EXTENDED WARRANTY. BUT THE WARRANTY RUNS OUT IN 2010, AND I'M SURE I'LL CONTINUE TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM. I WANT TO SELL MY CAR, BUT I CAN'T JUSTIFY SELLING A CAR THAT I KNOW HAS SO MANY PROBLEMS. *TR
