Consumer Description

IN JULY 2004 I PURCHASED A 2003 LAND ROVER FREELANDER HSE WITH 25K MILES. IN THE FOUR AND A HALF YEARS OF OWNING THE VEHICLE WE HAVE HAD NUMEROUS PROBLEMS. THE SUNROOF FAILED TWICE AND REPAIRED UNDER WARRANTY AND HAS SINCE BROKE AGAIN. THREE OF THE FOUR WINDOW REGULATORS HAVE FAILED (2 FIXED UNDER WARRANTY). I HAVE JUST REPLACED THE FUEL PUMP @ 95K MILES. HAD TO REPAIR MYSELF BECAUSE THE NEAREST DEALER IS 120 MILES AWAY AND NOBODY ELSE WOULD WORK ON IT. NOW IT SEEMS THE HEAD GASKET OR WHO KNOWS WHAT ELSE HAS FAILED. WE HAVE TO PUT A GALLON OF WATER IN PER WEEK. LAND ROVER HAS DISCONTINUED THE SALE OF THE FREELANDER IN THE US. THIS DOES NOT SURPRISE ME BECAUSE OF ALL THE COMPLAINTS DUE TO THE OVERALL POOR QUALITY OF A "LUXURY SUV". *TR
