Consumer Description

REAR STARTED MAKING GRINDING NOISE WHEN ACCELERATING AND TURNING TO THE LEFT OR RIGHT. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP, THEY SAID THAT THEY DID NOT HEAR THE NOISE AND I MAY NEED TO WAIT UNTIL IT GETS WORSE, NUMEROUS ONLINE COMPLAINTS OF A FAULTY DESIGN FOR THE DIFFERENTIAL - LAND ROVER TOLD ME THAT THEY HAVE REPLACED 2 DIFFERENTIALS IN LAST COUPLE OF MONTHS AND IF THAT IS WHAT IS WRONG WITH MY VEHICLE IT COULD POTENTIALLY LOCK UP WHILE I'M DRIVING AND COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. WILL YOU PLEASE LOOK INTO WHY LAND ROVER HAS NOT DONE A RECALL ? THANK YOU VERY MUCH, LAURIE .....UPDATED 10/19/15 *BF *CN
