Freelander 4WD 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 72,500 miles
My daughter owns a 2003 Land Rover Freelander hse. It didn't start one morning and she noticed fluid on the ground. The fluid was gasoline. I had her crank the engine for a second while I had the hood open and there was gasoline squirting out of the fuel line just to the right of the engine block. I had a mechanic look at it and he was able to put the line back together and it clicked twice but since this is a serious safety issue, I was wondering if there have been other instances of the fuel line coming apart. Clearly if this happened while the engine was hot and she was driving, this could have been disastrous.
