This Problem Across All Years
I can be driving and the car will just cut off. The real danger was when I was on the freeway and I almost couldn't pull over to the side and a semi truck was behind me. That happened about 3 years ago. Also when I start the car and put it in reverse the parking brake warning light come on, that also started happening a couple years ago. The above happened again yesterday and the day before, October 9, 2021.

DEALERSHIP HAS DONE ALL IT CAN TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER IS LAND ROVER. LAND ROVER CORPORATE HAS REFUSED TO ASSIST OWNER OR DEALERSHIP IN PROVIDING A TECHNICAL SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM. ONLY ADVICE IS OF US TO WAIT FOR A COMPUTER ERROR CODE TO DISPLAY ON THE DASH SO THE DEALER CAN DETERMINE WHICH PART TO REPLACE. SAFETY ISSUE.. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. (AIR SHOCK, SENSOR, AIR SHOCKS COMPRESSOR, VALUES). THIS PROBLEM HAS PERSISTED FOR OVER A YEAR AND WE HAVE NOT GOTTEN AN ERROR MESSAGE. WE REQUEST LAND ROVER REPLACE COMPUTER MODULE AND SENSORS TO AIR SHOCKS, OR REPLACE AIR SHOCKS. *TR

DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AND MY CAR CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP. THE REAR SUSPENSION DROPPED TO THE GROUND WITH NO WARNING OR NO APPARENT REASON. THEN I FELT MY LEFT TIRE GO FLAT. ONCE CHP AND THE TOW TRUCK GOT ME OFF THE FREEWAY. I NOTICED THAT THE ENTIRE REAR SUSPENSION WAS ON THE GROUND. THE SUSPENSION FAILURE CAUSED BOTH OF MY REAR TIRES TO BUCKLE INWARD CAUSING THE LEFT ONE TO BLOW AND THE RIGHT ON GAUGED OUT ON THE INSIDE. LAND ROVER DEALERSHIP DIAGNOSTIC REPORT SHOWED SUSPENSION FAILURE AND THEY JUST PUSHED A BUTTON TO RAISE IT BACK UP. THEY FIXED ABSOLUTELY NOTHING AND EXPECTED ME TO PAY FOR TWO NEW TIRES AND WANTED TO SEND ME BACK ON THE ROAD. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NO HELP EITHER. I STILL PAY THIS CAR NOTE AND TO DATE HAVE NEVER DRIVEN THIS DEATH TRAP AGAIN. IM A AFRAID IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN WITHOUT ANY CAUSE OR WARNING. *TR
