Aloha LR2 Owners
Unhappy owner of an LR2 purchased new in Aug 08. I'm seeking info on problems with the driver's seat rocking fore/aft in the track when the vehicle accelerates and brakes. I truly like the vehicle, but hate the idea of paying the money for a brand new rig that has as many problems as this. In addition to the seat, the HVAC fan and various parts have been replaced 5 times...in the shop currently for over 2 weeks and counting! Also had the Adaptive front headlight system replaced. Breaks are loud and creak at every stop. A LR trait I've heard.
I'm a car guy and am very familiar with the historical LR reliability issues. But I did a lot of research and drove eveything in the segment before taking a chance on Rover. To their credit, LR of Honolulu has been a great dealer and is always there with a smile when I bring in my LR2...that's followed by, "now what?" Also had fun in the last LR Wheels event on Oahu. But all the fun is outweighed by these nagging problems. I want to like this thing, but it's testing my patience every time I sit in the driver's seat. Sorry to rain on all the happy LR owners out here. Just having a very bad first experience with the brand.
