problem #1

Range Rover Sport

  • 100 miles
The 2018 model has a significant throttle delay when accelerating the car from a stop, resulting in delay in movement after pressing the accelerator pedal. This can be very dangerous when turning onto busy roads and when accelerating at stop signs, as it takes 1-2 seconds before the car registers that the accelerator pedal has been depressed, and then jolts forward at a high speed to "catch up". two Land Rover dealers (West chester pa and wayne pa) have confirmed that numerous customers have complained about this issue but they have not been able to fix it and have been researching solutions for months. The service manager in West chester pa confirmed that one of their service technicians, when testing this issue, was almost hit by a moving car in front of the dealership because the car he was driving did not react soon enough after he depressed the acceleration pedal. The wayne pa service dept confirmed that there is 0.8 second throttle delay when testing another car (not mine). I formerly submitted a case to Land Rover Jaguar of North America but they have not yet resolved this issue. These cars should not be on the road with this issue!
