Consumer Description
Available for inspection. While driving on the highway within traffic at approximately 70mph, the vehicle abruptly began to vibrate and a rumbling/knocking noise emanated from the engine compartment. The vehicle lost acceleration and I was forced to pull over. Yes safety of myself and others was at risk - Not only was I in traffic, but my family was in the vehicle. No warnings, indicators, or messages appeared. In 2016, Land Rover issued a Special Service Message, SSM 72578 - Crankshaft/Crankshaft Bearing Concerns - 3.0 TDV6 Diesel Engine. This message depicts the symptoms I experienced. The Land Rover service technicians stated the engine no longer turns and is seized.
