Consumer Description

HEAD GASKET FAILURE 55,000 MILES BLOWN ENGINE. IN REPAIR OVER 23 X'S LANDROVER ACKNOWLEDGED ENGINE WAS LOOSING ANTI FREEZE, BUT COULDN'T FIND WHERE. CAUSED MY SON TO THROW UP EVERYTIME HE WAS DRIVEN IN THE CAR. CAUSED SEVERE HEADACHES IN ALL WHO DROVE FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME. THIS IS A VERY EXPENSIVE REPAIR NEEDS A NEW ENGINE.
