problem #2

Discovery

  • Manual transmission
  • 60,000 miles
Tire failed, vehicle became unstable and rolled over gas tank integrity failed, gas splilled and ignited. My seven year old son was burned to death, my 2 year old, my wife and myself sent to hospital with third degree burns. Land Rover officials agreed to a recall to prevent the problem in the future. Recall was to take place by April 2003. It has not. I believe they are intentionally dragging their feet to save a few pennies and are putting other Land Rover owners at risk in the meantime.
