2011 Land Rover LR2 Problems

WHEN DRIVING FEELS LIKE THE CAR GET IN TO NEUTRAL SUDDENLY THE REVOLUTIONS GET ALL THE WAY UP AND THE CAR DOES NOT ADVACE, DOES NOT RUN NORMAL UNTIL I DO MANUALLY CHANGE GEARS. MY SETTINGS ARE TO JUST DO MANUALLY WHEN THE CAR IS IN " S". THE CHECK ENGINE TURN ON. THIS STARTED LAST WEEK 03/05/2025 WHEN INSPECTED THE FAILURE SHOWS AS ERROR AS TURBO P0299

RECENTLY BEGAN HEARING A NOISE FROM THE REAR WHEN DRIVING. THOUGHT IT MIGHT BE FROM THE REAR ALIGNMENT CAUSING THE TIRE TREAD TO MAKE THIS SOUND. DRIVING FASTER THE NOISE WOULD GET LOUDER. TOOK TO MY MECHANIC FOR ALIGNMENT AND THEY SAID IT WAS THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL GOING OUT. THE BEARINGS WERE MAKING THE LOUD NOISE. THE VEHICLE ONLY HAS 70,400 MILES AND IS DRIVEN 10 MILES A DAY AND NEVER OFF ROAD. LOOKED FOR ANY RECALL NOTICE I MAY HAVE MISSED AND THEN DISCOVERED THIS SAME SITUATION FROM SEVERAL OTHERS. I ENTERED MY VIN TO CHECK FOR ANY RECALLS AND THERE ARE NONE! SURELY THIS VEHICLE WAS BUILT TO BETTER SPECS. FOR THIS TO FAIL SO EARLY IN THE LIFE (MILEAGE) OF THE VEHICLE IS UNACCEPTABLE AND NEEDS TO BE REPAIRED BY THE MANUFACTURER AT N/C. I'M CERTAIN THERE ARE MANY MORE THAN THOSE OF US WHO HAVE FILED HERE; HOWEVER, THERE ARE ENOUGH ON THIS SITE TO TAKE THE ISSUE SERIOUS AND ADDRESS THE MATTER WITH THE MANUFACTURER. THIS NEEDS TO BE RECOGNIZED FOR WHAT IS - A MANUFACTURING DEFECT AND NEEDS TO BE FIXED BY LAND ROVER!

I HAD JUST DRIVEN 3 HOURS TO CHICAGO FROM GALESBURG, I WAS PREPARED TO ENTER 90/94 AT STONEY ISLAND , BUT I DECIDED TO STOP OFF BECAUSE MY CELL PHONE WAS NOT CHARGING MY CIGARETTE LIGHTER WAS NOT WORKING. I KNOW ENOUGH ABOUT CARS TO CHANGE A LITTLE FUSE. I POPPED MY HOOD TO CHECK OUT THE FUSES, TO REPLACE IT. I PULLED THE FUSE FOR THE LIGHTER IT WAS NOT BLOWN, I PUT IT BACK. I DECIDED TIME IS GETTING LATE, FORGET IT, I WILL BUY AND EXTERNAL CHARGER IN INDIANA. WHEN I REPLACED THE FUSE COVER AND CLOSED THE HOOD. THE CAR WOULD NOT START, THE BCS WARNING CAME UP, AND THE HAZARDS BEGAN FLASHING, AND CRASH WARNING LIGHT CAME UP. I COULD NOT PUSH BRAKES, TURN STEERING WHEEL, TURN OFF LIGHTS, REMOVE KEY, PUT IN NEUTRAL, LOCK CAR OR START THE CAR. I HAD TO GET TOWED TO THE LR DEALERSHIP IN CHICAGO WHERE MY VEHICLE REMAINS. I AM SUBMITTING THIS BECAUSE LR SAID THAT THIS IS A RARE OCCURRENCE AND THEY HAVE DONE VERY LITTLE OF PROVIDING ANSWERS. I WAS PREPARED TO DRIVE3 THRU THE ALLEGHENY'S, WHAT IF THIS WOULD HAVE HAPPENED AS I WAS TRAVELING BACK TO DC? WHO ELSE COULD HAVE BEEN HARMED BY MY SYSTEM SEIZING UP? I LITERALLY WOULD HAVE LOST CONTROL OF MY VEHICLE. ESPECIALLY WITH 36K MILES AND STILL UNDER WARRANTY. *TR

I PURCHASED A 2011 LR2 AND THE BLUETOOTH SYSTEM IS USELESS AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. IT IS HARD TO HEAR CALLERS AT SPEEDS OF 45MPH+ AND CALLERS OFTEN COMPLAIN THAT THE SOUND IS DISTORTED, OR THAT IT SOUNDS LIKE THE WINDOWS ARE DOWN. I HAVE TAKEN IT IN TO BE LOOKED AT BY THE DEALER, BUT NO FIX WAS MADE. I ALSO CONTACTED CORPORATE LAND ROVER AND THEY WERE NO HELP. *TR

THE CONTACT CALLED LAND ROVER PEABODY (247 NEWBURY ST, PEABODY, MA 01960, (978) 535-9200) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED.
