Consumer Description

3TIMES NOW FIRST BATTERY LIGHT GOES ON THEN ALL LIGHTS ON PANELS STARTS LIGHTING UP FOR NO REASON ANDCAR STARTS SLOWING DOWN AND THEN DIES WHILE DRIVING. IT HAPPENED ON A HIGHWAY AND ON BUSY RUSH HOUR. ALL SYSTEM SHUTS DOWN. IF WINDOWS ARE OPEN THERE IS NO WAY TO SECURE. IN ONE INSTANCE THE KEY WAS IN THE IGNITION AND WAS NOT ABLE TO RETRIEVE IT THIS IS NOT BEING RECOGNIZED ADDRESSED BY LAND ROVER. CANNOT KEEP ON IGNORING THIS ISSUE. UNFORTUNATELY NOT EVERYONE REPORTS TO THE MANUFACTURER, SOMEONE HAS TO DO SOMETHING THIS PROBLEMS ARE DRAINING THE WALLETS OF CONSUMERS BECAUSE EACH TIME CARS HAVE TO BE TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP TO UNLOCK SYSTEM RELOAD SOFTWARE ONLY TO START A DIAGNOSE. ENDING UP WITH THOUSANDS IN REPAIRS . POLICE HAD TO STOP TO PUT FLARES LAST TIME THE CAR BROKE BECAUSE IT WAS DANGEROUS TO WAIT IN THE DARK FOR TOWING
