Consumer Description
Driving our car down the road. No engine lights or warnings and the engine powered down and the car came to a complete stop. Vehicle was a 2017 certified pre-owned which we have had for about three years. It has 61k miles and has always been serviced by the local land rover dealership. Vehicle was serviced by the landrover dealership two months prior to this incident and there was no recommended service for the engine. Towed the vehicle to the Land Rover dealership. They found the timing chain broke/came loose and now saying the engine is completely destroyed and we have to buy a new engine. Looking online there are multiple complaints and forums about timing chain issues and them causing complete engine failures. Seems like this is a factory defect that is not being addressed.
