Last Thursday, 5/27/2021, I was driving on the interstate and all of sudden my vehicle became inoperable due to the same issue I have been having all along--mechanical failure of the suspension of the car/wheel. The bushings, bearings, alignment is out of whack. The wheel is out of alignment of the brake calipers. The wheel was literally rubbing against the brake caliper. I could have been killed due to faulty and mechanical failure of this vehicle. The car is broken and obviously Land Rover is clueless as to how to fix it for good. It's a lemon! The car was inoperable and had to be towed to the Buckhead dealership by LR Roadside. Furthermore, I am in the final stages of the application process of the Georgia Lemon Law to have this car replaced by Land Rover. No one should have to go through the problems I have had with this vehicle and with Land Rover. It is available for inspection upon request. It is currently at the Buckhead Land Rover dealership in Atlanta, GA. My safety was at risk because due to the wheel malfunction the wheel/tire could have locked up and caused my vehicle to flip and harm all others on the Interstate. Yes the dealer has confirmed this problem. They don't seem to know how to fix it. To my knowledge the vehicle has NOT been inspected by the manufacturer, the police or insurance representatives. Sadly, this is how scary this incident was--as there were NO warning lamps, messages or symptoms of the problem prior to failure. Land Rover is trying to underhandedly charge me almost $900.00 for their failure to repair my vehicle. I shouldn't have to pay a dime for this! This vehicle should be replaced.
