Discovery II

  • 26,916 miles
(1)initial new power steering rack/box leaked and replaced with refurbished steering box on 12/15/2008, auto mileage at 26,916. The new steering box which came with the new vehicle should not have failed so soon as well as at such a low mileage. (2)the refurbished steering box failed, leaked and replaced again on 4/5/2010 at mileage 34,142. (3) replaced refurbished steering box failed, leaked and replaced again on 6/25/2010, mileage 35,576. (4) after a week of steering box leakage, finally took the vehicle for service on 10/29/2010, mileage 37,605. Replaced with a new (not refurbished) steering box this time on 11/15/2010. I have replaced the steering box 4 times total to date with low vehicle total mileage of 37,900. For service, I drive 100 miles each way and wait for the repair to be done. That takes all day. I am waiting for the new steering box to fail again any time soon.
