NHTSA Complaint #11255784 — 2017 LAND ROVER RANGE ROVER EVOQUE

WITHIN THE LAST 5 MONTHS THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN THE DEALERSHIP MORE THAN IN MY POSSESSION. THE VEHICLE IS COVERED UNDER THE MANUFACTURERS WARRANTY BUT FOR SOME REASON OVER THE COURSE OF 5 MONTHS THEY (LAND ROVER) CANNOT FIX MY WIFE'S CAR. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON AND WHEN WE TAKE IT TO LAND ROVER THEY SAY THEY HAVE FIXED THE PROBLEM ONLY FOR THE VEHICLE TO BE BACK IN THE SHOP AGAIN FOR THE SAME ISSUE. ONCE AGAIN MY 2017 RANGE ROVER EVOQUE HAS THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMING ON. ON 9/12 WE RECEIVED A TEXT MESSAGE AFTER 3 WEEKS OF NO COMMUNICATION FROM LAND ROVER HUNTINGTON ADVISING THAT THEY ARE "STILL WORKING WITH TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE TO FURTHER DIAGNOSIS THE VEHICLE". TO ADD INSULT TO INJURY SINCE THAT TIME WE RECEIVE A REQUEST TO AUTHORIZE REPLACING THE "BRAKE PADS AND ROTORS"ON A CAR THAT RECENTLY WENT THROUGH INSPECTION AND HAS LESS THAN 30K MILES ON IT. THIS IS VERY INSULTING AS 1) WE STILL HAVE NOT BEEN CALLED AND SPOKEN TO ANYONE REGARDING WHAT'S ACTUALLY WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE. 2) THE CAR WAS NOT PUT IN FOR THIS SERVICE. WHY AREN'T THEY FOCUSING ON THE PROBLEM? ON FRIDAY WE RECEIVED YET ANOTHER TEXT FROM THEM (NO CALL) AND WERE TOLD THAT THE ENGINE NOW REQUIRES REPLACEMENT AND THAT IT WOULD BE ANOTHER FEW WEEKS BEFORE WE HAD OUR CAR RETURNED. AGAIN HOW IS THE ENGINE BAD ON A 2017 CAR THAT HAS SUCH LOW MILES? THIS ENTIRE PROCESS WITH THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE, NOT RECEIVING A CALL BUT TEXT MESSAGES TO DISCUSS WHATS ACTUALLY WRONG WITH THE CAR TO NOW BEING TOLD ITS THE ENGINE MAKES THIS CAR UNSAFE AND HAS DRASTICALLY DIMINISHED ITS RESALE VALUE. SADLY NO ONE FROM THEIR CORPORATE DIVISION IS ATTEMPTING TO HELP, ACCOMMODATE OR MAKE US WHOLE IN ANYWAY. THERE ARE OTHER BLOGS OUT THERE THAT THE SAME THINGS HAS OCCURRED. I'M DEEPLY DISAPPOINTED IN THEIR BRAND AND CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF THIS VEHICLE FOR MY WIFE.
