Two problems related to brake electric antilock have been reported for the 2003 Land Rover Discovery Ii. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
1. Applied the brakes. 2. Every time I apply brakes after vehicle has been started 3. Dealer claims there is nothing which can be done. . . Apparently all such models have this issue, which generates the question as to why Land Rover has not been made to do something about this, much like what would have been done had such an issue been incurred with a Chevrolet, Ford or Toyota? this issue has already been recorded as service bulletin NHTSA item no. 10016118? this demonstrates there are recognized problems with the abs modulator and system, resulting in the abs/ emergency brake / hill descent and traction control lamps illuminating on the dash, which may cause the abs system to incur failure when needed? the number of vehicle owners incurring this problem indicates there is a serious inherent defect within this vehicle, which I and many others cannot understand why such have not been recalled. . . There has apparently been another recall for an abs component in this vehicle (NHTSA recall campaign id no. 04v005000) and this preliminary recall should also be amended to include this issue with the abs system? this issue is well documented and widespread among this particular model and the NHTSA should finally require Land Rover to correct such.
2003 Discovery Ii and the three main lights illuminating, two times they have been on and stay on, sometimes now they turn on and off. Traction control, abs and hill descent control. This will be my third trip to the dealer for the same problem.
