NHTSA Complaint #11161754 — 2014 LAND ROVER RANGE ROVER SPORT

UPON STARTING MY CAR, IT AUTOMATICALLY STARTS ACCELERATING IN PARKING. I HAVE TO WAIT FOR THE ENGINE TO STOP ACCELERATION WHICH TAKES AROUND 40 SECONDS. ONLY THEN I CAN PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE OR DRIVE MODE. THE ENGINE LIGHT STAYS ON. UPON TAKING TO DEALERSHIP THEY WERE INFORMED ABOUT THE ABOVE PROBLEM. THEY DID A DIAGNOSTIC AND STATED THAT PLUGS NEED TO BE CHANGED. I PAID THEM $650. NOW THE ENGINE LIGHT DID NOT STAY LIT UP AND THE ACCELERATION PROBLEM WAS GONE. AFTER 16 WEEKS THE PROBLEM CAME BACK AND THE CAR STARTED ACCELERATING UPON STARTUP, AND THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THIS TIME THEY SAID THEY CAR HAS A DIFFERENT PROBLEM. THIS TIME THEY STATED THE PROBLEM IS WITH OIL LEAKING. THE INVOICE WAS $3600. I TOOK THE CAR TO ANOTHER SHOP FOR SECOND OPINION AND WAS INFORMED THAT THERE IS A BIG HOLE IN THE HOSE. I CHECKED ONLINE IF THERE HAVE BEEN RECALLS DUE TO HOSE LEAK PROBLEM. THE INTERNET SHOWS RECALLS FOR 2014 RANGE ROVER SPORT MODELS FOR HOLES IN HOSES. BUT WHEN I ENTER MY VIN NUMBER, NO RECALLS SHOW UP. SELF ACCELERATION SHOULD BE TAKEN CARE OF BY LAND ROVER. PLEASE ASSIST ME IN THIS ISSUE, AS THE DEALERSHIP IS TRYING TO JUST ROB ME EVEN AFTER I GOT THE PROBLEM FIXED. THE TPMS LIGHT STAYS ON IN MY CAR.
