Seems Land Rover are to recall some vehicles. It would appear that some less than perfect vehicles has gotten through the stringent factory quality control checks and then these faulty vehicles even made it through the Dealer Pre Delivery Inspection checks. Seems there has been a few vehicles that have the odd leak into the footwell when it rains. Rumour has it that doors on some vehicles may not be closing correctly. The odd vehicle is sporting a chassis that has not been properly prepared against corrosion. There have even been reports of "rattles" been heard inside the odd vehicle when been driven. Naturally Land Rover cannot tolerate these anomalies so they will be issuing recalls to fix these isolated problems. Land Rover have stated that the number of vehicles involved "is miniscule" so they don't expect dealers to be busy rectifying these faults. They think they have isolated the bad batch and will be contacting the owners of these vehicles to arrange for the faults to be remedied. Once again they state that the numbers involved are small but if you feel your vehicle has left the factory in less than perfect condition you are welcome to contact Land Rover directly.
Seems the small number of vehicles involved fall in to the sequence LR 0000001 onwards.

That will nearly be as big as the VW recall.......
Particularly as 70% of LR's that were ever made are still on the road.....:p

I spoke to Bruce Lynton Land Rover and they assured me that they have never had one complaint from any customer regarding noise or water intrusion on any Defender they have sold, but they cannot vouch for any of the other dealers. If they get notification from Land Rover they will contact me asap.:cool:
