The windshield started leaking, with potential damage to the interior and electrical system. (No such damage has occurred yet as I immediately sent it to Land Rover Princeton NJ) and was diagnosed by them and confirmed that the leak was due to the windshield. However, in April 2019, the windshield of the vehicle was replaced and repaired due to a leak, as well as a recall noted here: [XXX] I’ve contacted the Land Rover corporate office in Mahwah, NJ to file a claim since it appears the recall repair was inadequate, given that the same problem is recurring. They have submitted and denied the claim, stating that since the recall was already performed by the previous owner, they are not liable to pay for the repairs. From my research with auto-glass companies, their expertise states that a windshield normally should last the lifetime of a vehicle and that any leaks indicates improper installation (such as incorrect sealing or inadequate bonding) or faulty materials. The recall was issued due to a known defect, and it is reasonable to expect that the repair addresses this issue comprehensively. Since the windshield is leaking again, it suggests that the initial repair may have been insufficient. I believe it is the manufacturer’s responsibility to ensure that such defects are properly resolved. When mentioning this to them, they stated “there’s no way you can prove it’s faulty and good luck getting a lawyer to prove that as well.” I have yet to receive an official invoice from the Princeton Land Rover service dept but was quoted $2071.00 plus tax. I am awaiting a formal letter/email from headquarters LANDROVER that states my claim was officially denied and the specific reasons it was denied (as they only told me over the phone) INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

During a rain, the windshield started leaking on the passenger side. The water obscured visibility on the entire passenger side, and it was like a waterfall in the car. This was a dangerous situation; the visibility is already poor in the rain without additional help from the leaking windshield. There was a recall on the windshield (N221NAS2), this was already performed, yet it's leaking 2 years later. Unfortunately, the manufacture refuses to honor that the recall failed, and I have to pay $2000 out of pocket for the repair. When I checked online, I realized this is a prevalent problem with a lot of owners. Obscured visibility during rain is a serious issue and can use fatal accidents (I read many stores of owners who had near-miss accidents due to this); that is why I decided to report this problem.

THE CAR HONKS SPORADICALLY WHILE PARKED OUTSIDE IN THE RAIN.

I HAVE OWNED THIS VEHICLE LESS THAN ONE YEAR, AND THE TIRES ON THIS VEHICLE ARE ALL CRACKING ON THE OUTSIDE WALLS OF THEM. I REALIZE THAT THESE TIRES MAY HAVE WEAR TO THEM; HOWEVER, THIS TO ME IS CONSIDERED A SAFETY ISSUE ESPECIALLY IF THEY'RE TO BE OF ANY TYPE OF QUALITY FROM THE MANUFACTURER. I AM CONCERNED REGARDING THE QUALITY OF TIRE, AND HOW THESE TIRES ARE NOW ALL CRACKING AROUND THE SIDEWALLS OF THEM. *TR

TAILGATE SENSOR MALFUNCTION CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO HONK WHEN THE SURFACE OF THE STREET IS WET AND REFLECTIVE. THIS CAN HAPPEN AT STOP-LIGHT, ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN STOPPED AND EVEN PARKING (STATIONARY). IT DOES NOT HONK WHEN MOVING BUT CAUSING HAZARD AS OTHER DRIVER THINK THERE IS SOMETHING TO BE CAREFUL ABOUT. DEALERSHIP/MANUFACTURER TRY TO RESOLVE IT BUT WAS NOT SUCCESSFUL WITH NO LONG TERM FIX ON THE HORIZON.
