Brand New Landrover Defender broke down After Only 167 Miles by cluewebhost(m): 4:47pm On Oct 27, 2020 |
It seems they don't make vehicles for durability anymore. https://www.autoevolution.com/news/new-land-rover-defender-breaks-down-after-only-167-miles-150591.html One day after taking delivery, The Fast Lane took the four-cylinder turbocharged SUV to the Webster Pass in Colorado for a bit of off-road fun. “The vehicle did really well” with the bone-stock tires, then the guys went to Keystone in Summit County to have dinner after they had their fun. Fed, hydrated, and ready for the drive home, The Fast Lane couldn’t believe to see the check engine light not going away after starting the car. With the help of an OBD II reader and a mobile phone, Tommy and Roman Mica found a disparity in the air-to-fuel ratio for cylinders number two and three. After taking the Defender to the dealership on Friday, everything was fine on Tuesday when Andre was supposed to bring it back. “He noticed that none of those really funky and cool cameras that we fell in love with so much were working.” At the dealership once again, the service technician found out that the camera module wasn’t functioning as intended. Even with the help of a Land Rover engineer, they just couldn’t fix the damn thing. As such, The Fast Lane is waiting for the module to be replaced. On the phone with the dealer, Roman got another piece of bad news. “When can I pick up the vehicle?” he asked, to which the service rep replied that he can’t because “the check engine light is back on." The engineer decided that it needs new injector coils, wires, and injectors https://www.autoevolution.com/news/new-land-rover-defender-breaks-down-after-only-167-miles-150591.html |

I know one thing for sure, driving aggressively on a newly bought car especially one that is turbocharged or supercharged can cause some malfunctions around the engine. But the other faults listed is definitely a factory fault. |

New vehicles are not allergic to having faults..... Anything manufactured, can and would develop a fault......... |
