Consumer Description

THERE IS A VERY SERIOUS ISSUE IN LANDROVER DISCOVERY 2017 THAT ABRUPTLY SHUTS DOWN THE ENGINE FOR NO APPARENT REASON. ON NOV 20TH, 2020 MY WIFE WAS TRAVELLING TO PITTSBURGH PA ON ROUTE 76 PA TURNPIKE. NEAR BRADFORDFORD, PA THE ENGINE SUDDENLY SHUT ITSELF DOWN WITHOUT ANY PRE-WARNING. THE CAR STALLED WITH NO ABILITY OR AMPLE TIME FOR HER TO STEER TO THE SHOULDER. UNTIL HIGHWAY PATROL ARRIVED, SHE WAS COMPLETELY LEFT IN A HELPLESS AND LIFE THREATENING SITUATION. ANY BIG TRUCK COULD'VE EASILY REAR ENDED HER AND KILLED HER. HIGHWAY PATROL AND TURNPIKE AUTHORITY SERVICE PERSONNEL ARRIVED ONSITE, INSPECTED THE CAR BUT DID NOT FIND ANY APPARENT ISSUE. WITHOUT ANYTHING DONE ON THE CAR, AFTER 15 MINS OR SO THE ENGINE STARTED NORMALLY AS IF NOTHING HAPPENED.
