Battery Problems of Land Rover Freelander

Land rover Freelander hse 2002: at 70,000 miles, transmission halts, seizing, rapid rpm jumps; less than one month later, the transmission completely died. Inoperable car towed and transmission rebuilt at private shop. Five miles from shop after pickup, car seized and died. Now, an additional repair of the "transfer case," which we were told caused the transmission failure. Now, service engine soon light on; battery keeps dying. Rapid depreciation, frequent repairs of brakes, brake pads, headlights, etc. Complained to manufacturer 2/23/2007. Car inoperable as of this date. Don't know what to do -- owe more than it's worth, cannot get full nada/kbb trade in value. . . Frustrated and disappointed. And out of money.

Electrical drain on system continued to weaken the battery, causing overall electrical shutdown. The car has been to the dealer three times. The first time, in December, the truck was at the dealer for one week. The last time was March 16, 2005 and it took the dealer 13 days to find, track and resolve the problem. I am picking up the vehicle tomorrow, March 30 to see if the problem has been resolved.

On 4 separate occasions vehicle stalled while driving. Only on the first occasion the engine check light came on. Dealership replaced the battery, and a part in the engine. However, problem still exists.

The vehicle's check engine light illuminated. The mirrors did not reach some angles, the gas cap could not get open, and the vehicle suddenly died out without warning. The consumer was informed that the battery was a problem.
