Engine And Engine Cooling Problems of Land Rover Evoque

Engine misfires causing car to lose power and go into 'restricted mode'. This is very dangerous. It happened at high speed, making it very unsafe to pull over to the side of the highway - almost causing a multiple vehicle accident. Taken to dealer 3 times and they have not resolved the issue. Informed landrover USA about my concerns and they have not been helpful - saying take the vehicle back to the dealer and pay an additional $380 for diagnostics after already paying them $200 as the car is no longer under warranty. Vehicle has $59,250 miles. Other Evoque owners also experience similar problems.

My Evoque only 3 years 63,000 miles and the turbo is brocken the dealer Land Rover san juan puerto rico sorry no warranty for what my Evoque only 3 years.

I stopped at a red light, when light turned green, I pressed the accelerator, however the car would only roll not accelerate, engine had no response whatsoever, in some cases the rev actually dropped instead of going up, which was bizzare. After pressing the accelerator for about 5 seconds the car will suddenly accelerate to 3000 rpm and over and take off, then when I stop again, same thing happens. It kept on recurring everytime I stop. Uphill was even more difficult to get the car going. However, I did get it fixed by updating the engine software at the dealer. There should be an announced recall for this problem, it is scary.

I was driving vehicle at about 65-70 mph on freeway for about one hour. Exited freeway, stopped at traffic light. When leaving light, accelerated normal & instantly noticed there was very poor acceleration. The engine service light displayed & vehicle would not go over 35mph. I then pulled into parking lot, turned car off for 2 minutes, restarted & no change in problem. Took car to dealership where I purchased & vehicle was fixed at no charge.

While driving in rainy weather for approximately one hour, I went to accelerate to pass a car and there was a loss of power, amber waning light came on, engine light came on and I could not go faster than 35 mph. This could have caused a serious accident but I was able to slow down enough to get back in the slow lane. Car had to be towed to dealer the next day. The loner Evoque they gave me did the same thing in rainy weather on September 16, 2012.
