I own a 20,000 miles 2007 land rover discovery 3. Fails all the time, is a very bad truck. I was driving in the city and sudenly the brakes activates and I almost crash, they repair it and a week after the same fail ocurs and almost cause an accident again. Now the computer system is going crazy, two times I complain about this and two times it happened. The suspension was locked in lower possition and a lot of system stops working. Everytime they never change he truck, they just repair it and the problems repeats and repeats many times. This is a very bad quality brand, dont make a mistake buying it.

Almost crash 2 times. Then, truck stops working and I had to walk 8 miles under the sun to get celphone signal because I was driving in a remote place in the south of Peru.

Wife and I were driving home last night when out of nowhere we smelled something unusual coming from the car, I immediately pulled over and thought I saw smoke coming from the car. I told my wife to exit the car and when I approached the hood fire started dripping out under the car, I immediately called 911 to get the fire department but within 2 minutes the entire range rover was up in flames. The firemen told us that there must have been some defect because the car went up too fast and there was no kill swith on the fuel line.

My wife and I are very lucky to be alive. In the matter of seconds the smoke and fire made its way right into the front passenger cabin. My Ranger rover was a 2000 HSE which I still owe 16,500 on it. After researching online last night it appears numerous Range Rovers of the same make have had these same issues.

I took my 2000 Land Rover Discovery II to the dealership because my ABS, TC and Hill Descent lights were on and my brakes had locked up twice in a two month period nearly causing an accident. They informed me that the shuttle valve was faulty and would need repaired which could be done with a repair kit. They also advised me that it was ok to drive it, but I wouldn't have ABS.

This is contrary to the advice given in the owners manual. Upon researching, this is a huge problem with LR Disco II's. The manufacturer should have a recall and repair the faulty shuttle valves. It is hard telling how many accidents this may have caused.

The cost of the repair is over 1300 and multiply that times the overwhelming number of affected Land Rover owners, it is ridiculous.

While driving my 2006 Land Rover LR3 with 28k miles, the engine ignited on fire.During the past 10 months of ownership, purchasing it new from the dealership, the LR3 has had ignition problems, a radio replaced, uneven wear on all 4 factory installed Goodyear tires (which now must be replaced). What in the world is going on with what I thought was going to be a safe and wise- though expensive investment? While waiting a few days for the dealership to investigate, my own investigation has sadly turned up MANY MANY issues and problems across the country with the LR3.
