1 Complaints sent to the Center for Auto Safety for 2006 LAND ROVER LR3

skip to NHTSA complaints

I am writing in the hope that you can help me (and probably many others) resolve an outrageous situation with vehicle manufacturer, Land Rover (and the dealer, Paul Miller Land Rover of Parsippany). The root of the conflict is a known and admitted, but still unpublicized, wheel alignment defect with the popular Land Rover LR3 vehicle model. Two weeks ago, I got a flat tire (2nd this year). When changing the flat, I noticed that the inward portion of each tire tread was worn bald through to the steel belt on one of the tires. Being at severe risk of blow-out, I had the car towed to the dealer (this was covered by my warranty). The dealer informed me that to replace the 3 tires (the 4th had been replaced several months ago and was still ok), would cost $1,180 and there would be a further $300 charge to fix the alignment. I questioned why I would have to incur the full cost of repair when clearly this damage was not the result of “normal wear and tear” it seemed to be an issue with the vehicle alignment and further, Land Rover was not living up to its advertising – constructing vehicles capable of handling the roughest of mountain terrain (and here I am with tire and alignment issues after less than 2 years in the suburbs). At this time, and to my surprise, the head Service Manager (Jim Simmons) for the dealer (Land Rover Parispanny NJ) alerted me to the fact that my make/model/year Land Rover LR3 vehicle is indeed known to have an alignment “defect”(verifiable by vehicle VIN number). This defect, however, was not subject to recall as the problem “typically manifested itself prior to 20,000 miles” in which case the dealer (or Land Rover Inc) quietly resolved the issue (including tire wear) at no cost to the owner. This was subsequently confirmed to me by “Matt”at Land Rover North America (corporate office). In the end, however, I was told “we’re not going to help you with this problem; your vehicle has 28,000 miles”. Here are the concerns/complaints that I have with this situation and with the treatment I am receiving from both Land Rover North America and the dealer, Land Rover Parispanny: First, I’m shocked and dismayed at Land Rover (dealer and corporate) for not warning or alerting me (or any of their customers) to a known defect with the alignment of the vehicle, especially one like this, which has put myself, my pregnant wife and our two young children in a very unsafe driving condition (along with many others; fellow LR3 owners and those driving next to us). In fact, when I questioned Mr. Simmons about this, saying this alignment issue may have impacted my decision to lease this particular vehicle, he said they didn’t know about this defect at that time – and then refused to tell me when the problem became known. Outrageous! Second, even if one agrees with Land Rover’s (or the dealer’s) policy that it is only responsible for correcting the admitted defect (and replacing the tires) at 20,000 miles or less there are several mitigating circumstances in my case. a) I leased the car when it already had approximately 9,000 miles thus, I have possessed/driven the car for less than 20,000 miles. b) The vehicle was serviced immediately prior to my lease (9,000 miles) the dealer has not proven to me (nor even tried to) that the alignment was not “tweaked”at this time thus delaying the manifestation of the alignment issue. c) My vehicle came with information about Michelin tires. Yet my vehicle actually rides on Goodyears. The dealer has not assured me to my satisfaction that my tires are indeed original to the vehicle If not, then this problem may have indeed manifested itself at less than 20,000 miles – per my unevenly worn Goodyear tires. d) As a leased vehicle, I am to return it in approximately 5 months in effect, they are asking me to repair the defect and buy new tires at my expense, but the dealer will become, shortly, the main beneficiary of these repairs. e) My car was serviced between 8,000-9,000 miles and then again, when I brought it in (for a tire related issue no less) at 21,000 miles. Neither time was the problem detected (potential negligence), nor was I alerted to be on the lookout for this issue (absolute irresponsibility). Please note that one would have to be on the lookout – as the wear is only evident on the inward side of the tread and thus it is not readily apparent nor obvious. To recap; My LR3 is in need of $1,500 in repairs (plus tax) as a result of a known defect with the vehicle that both the dealer and Land Rover admit to, but had never warned me about. As a result, myself and my family were placed in a very unsafe driving condition. I am irate. The situation is made more ridiculous, when one considers the nature of the defect in concert with Land Rover’s marketing campaign. No wonder they haven’t alerted customers. Further, neither the dealer nor Land Rover North America has been forthcoming with information. I have not gone into detail, but personnel I’ve dealt with refused to allow me to speak to a superior or elevate the issue and believe me when I say there has also been a lot of bureaucracy involved. What’s more, neither Land Rover Parsippany nor Land Rover Corporate has been cooperative in meeting part-way on the repairs (I am reasonable after all) even once made aware of the aforementioned extenuating circumstances. I’m at my wits end. I’m furious. The problem is likely impacting many others (whether they aware of it or not). I should not have to incur the cost for the alignment repair nor new tires. I don’t know where else to turn. Please help.
