Transfer Case Problems of Land Rover Discovery

A new Discovery hse 2017 was leaking automatic transmission after being used for approx. 980 miles. The leak seems to come from the rear transmission / transfer case area. Based on observation, the oil weeps through the aluminium casing and drops in the garage floor. This was immediately reported to the jlr dealership on June 14, 2018 and its being there since then for a transmission replacement based on a service bulletin. The SUV was only used for 2 weeks and the first drop of oil was found on the driveway floor over the course of the 2nd week, everyday after driving from work.

Own a 2003 Land Rover Discovery. Was driving when vechicle started to vibrate and drive rough - immediately after that, a noise was heard coming from underneath the vechicle. The car immediately stopped while the engine was still running and would not move. The vehicle was towed to a mechanic. They found that the front drive shaft "double spicer had broke at the transfer case mounting point and would need a new drive shaft. The vehicle was repaired. A case was filed with Land Rover - however, I am also documenting this as a saftey concern so that others could be aware of this danger behavior of the vehicle stopping immediately without warning in the middle of the highway. This could have been very fatal if vehicle would have been driven during a high traffic period. This incident was also very frighting for myself and the kids that were in the car with me and I am praying that Land Rover take this safety issue very serious and issue a recall for all of their Land Rover models (not just the range rover) before someone get seriously hurt from this abnormal failure.
