NHTSA Complaint #10704618 — 2012 LAND ROVER RANGE ROVER EVOQUE

I TOOK MY CAR IN TO THE LAND ROVER SERVICE DEPT WHERE I PURCHASED MY VEHICLE BECAUSE I SMELLED EXHAUST THROUGH THE VENTS AND I WAS GETTING HEADACHES EVERY TIME I DROVE. ON MY FIRST VISIT THEY TOLD ME THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG. AFTER A MONTH OF CONTINUED EXHAUST ISSUES I TOOK IT TO A DIFFERENT LAND ROVER SERVICE DEPT AND THEY EVENTUALLY FOUND A HAIRLINE FRACTURE IN THE TURBO. THEY QUOTED ME $6,500 FOR THE REPAIR AND ADVISED ME THAT IT WAS NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY. THEY TOLD ME TO SIMPLY RUN MY AIR/HEATER ON MANUAL VERSUS AUTOMATIC AND DRIVE WITH A WINDOW CRACKED. I AM CURRENTLY TRYING TO FIND SOMEONE THAT WILL WORK ON MY EVOQUE THAT COULD POSSIBLY WELD THE FRACTURE RATHER THAN REPLACING THE ENTIRE SYSTEM BUT HAVING DIFFICULTY. *TR
