Alliance is not LR assured warranty. If the dealer told you it was anything like a an extended LR warranty then it was misleading.
Allianz back the LR one.
Alliance one is not worth the bytes it is written in.

CaverD3 you are right the LR Assured Extended Warranty is underwritten by Allianz, that is the one that is promoted on the LR Official Site and from all accounts the one to buy.

It seems as though I have the AMK as my chassis number is CA602...Quote:

Where have you read they are returning to hitachi?Quote:

My understanding was they switched due to the tsunami wiping out the hitachi factory?
It was in the post from you (the cut from the D3 forum in the UK). I read this as back to hitachi from the later vins....these vins are after my D4....if they go in numerical order.Quote:

the warranty states Ladrover extension of manufactuers warranty and the sales guy who sold it assured me at the time it was the same as original warranty, hence why I forked out nearly $3k for it.
Should have checked here to ask a few questions first. <_<
Anyway I will ask the dealer about it but won't hold my breath on it.
'Misleading and deceptive' comes to mind. :mad:
Speak to the ACCC and see if you can get your money back at least.
Apprantly many have contacted ACCC with no result, some have even taken the court action without suitable outcome.
Anyway I have asked the question nicely pointing out :
- there is a TSB on the hitachi compressors and as a known issue they should replace out of goodwill; or
- vehicle had only recently come out of orginal warranty by a few months, hence "Implied warranty" whould be implied; or
- The LR "Extension of Original Manufacturers Warranty" sold to me as a full extension should cover it.
I really do not care which one but I would suggest it should be covered under 1 of the options.
Let the universe send me my new AMK compressor :p
