General Comments

My first fault occurred 7 months into ownership when the battery appeared to be flat after a 2 hour drive to the Lakes. Landrover Rescue were excellent. No apparent reason for the fault.
Second fault 11 months into ownership when the fuel sender proved faulty and I ran out of petrol. Dealt with the immediate problem myself and sender unit replaced at annual service.
Third fault in 13th month of ownership when Inertia Switch fault caused the vehicle to stop dead at a traffic light. Fortunately not in fast moving traffic.
Landrover Rescue excellent again in diagnosing fault, arranging Landrover Assist replacement vehicle and taking me home. Unfortunately a problem getting the dealer where the car was taken to acknowledge the fault and organise replacement but work undertaken once Landrover Rescue confirmed the fault at site of rescue.
Unfortunately a reluctance to at Landrover Customer Services to acknowledge my concerns at driving a vehicle supposedly roadworthy.
