problem #2

Nov 022020

Discovery Sport

  • 35,000 miles
This vehicle loses power while operating at any speed. While going 70mph out of nowhere it goes down to 40 within seconds with zero warning and 3 accidents have almost happened. It was "fixed" once by a local Land Rover dealer but has happened 3 times since. The "D" for the drive gear flashes red when this happens, it appears the vehicle is going into lymp mode and is absolutely unsafe to drive.
