What owners wrote
While driving at speed in excess of 60MPH the suspension, transmission, driveshafts failed multiple times. Require tow serviced each time due to complete powerfailures. Vehicle locked and forced me into emergency lane on the nj turnpike. Landrover replaced only the battery and alternator the first time and 3 months later the failure happened again , and they replaced the battery and alternator again.
I was driving down a main road on us 69 in tyler, texas friday evening. The vehicle has 51000 miles on it. I was traveling at 40MPH when the car slipped out of gear and said to shift to neutral. Car died on the spot, and had to have it towed. Apparently it was due to front differential breaking. I read on webs ites that 2004 and older range rovers have this problem. My vehicle was in the process of having front differential,cv axle, and transmission replaced due to this problem.
