Equipment problem #1

Unfortunately I really have no idea what caused the problem . But while driving on the highway ( in traffic ) going approx 40 mph . My vehicle had a low coolant light come on. Within 5 min of the light coming on the vehicle made a loud fast ticking like noise so I pulled off the road 1 half mile from my exit . Before I could even stop the vehicle fully . The cars hood had smoke and flames coming out . The flames got to at least 10 feet in the air … within 15 min the front of the vehicle was burned to the ground . Police and fire arrived just under 15 min and were able to put the fire out . I have videos of the vehicle as I ran for safety . I had no none problems with this vehicle prior to this incident. The fire and police stated they have never seen a car like this go up in flames so fast as this one .

Equipment problem #2

Passenger door would not open from inside or outside.

Equipment problem #3

To whom it may concern, my vehicle which is at 15,000 miles and about 18 months old, has been facing continuous failures on its electric and electronic components that affected the air suspension shutting down, emergency break locking up, sudden shut down of the middle main console, a shut down of safety features around mirrors and similar vehicle safety warning systems. The issues happen while driving. I took it back to my dealer several times and even the last time after service the car came back with an engine warning sign. I made multiple attempts with Land Rover to correct and stated that my family and I feel very unsafe and insecure not knowing what can break down next. When we asked if it is safe the company responded that we should make that determination without an engineering or technical background. The company also said they will take 30 business days to review our case however upon several reminders that we are not feeling safe, Land Rover opts to ignore or state that they do not have resources ie people to review these cases. I would like to enter into record that we did make many attempts to relay our concerns and if there are to be any accidents it is the fault of the company for continuously ignoring the seriousness of the case and total lack of care for passenger safety. I am writing on this venue hoping that you might be able to convince the company to pay attention to the matter.

Equipment problem #4

Lower screen module is going out.

Equipment problem #5

The bottom screen module in my vehicle is constantly going out. I'm not able to operate any of my control features in the vehicle. I've contacted the manufacturer and I have yet to receive any assistance in preventing this issue or fixing this issue. The screen controls the heating, air and other safety options such as the drive mode, defroster and etc.
