I was driving at ~10-15 mph around lake mead in nv. As i pulled to a stop sign smoke began to come from under the hood of the car. At first i thought the car was overheating and tried to navigate it to the side of the road. All the cars systems went out before i got it off the road (30 seconds from the first smoke) and the smoke was billowing out from under the hood. I jumped out and tried to open the hood, still thinking it was overheating, but i was unable to find the catch. I decided to move away from the car just in case. I walked about 10 paces away from the car and turned to see fire dripping down from the front. I decided to call 911. The front of the car was engulfed in flames before i could dial. By the time the 911 operator picked up the car was engulfed up to the middle of the body and the tires began exploding (this could be heard by the 911 operator). By the time i got off the phone the car was completely engulfed (this was less than 3 min from seeing the first smoke). The car burned completely, leaving no trace of anything but the metal frame.what is most disturbing is that the body/interior burned as if they had been doused with an incendiary. They went up so fast and shouldn't be flammable at all. Just to emphasize this, i was hauling a sm trailer that had a canvas cover and the tarp was only scorched at the front; not burning at all. I found many other fires of this range rover just like mine reported on the internet.i am fairly certain that these fires are caused by a very flammable hood liner and that these cars are extremely dangerous. When i bought my range rover used i had noticed that the hood liner was burned where it was closest to the top of the engine and it seemed to be caused by the engine heat, but i hadn't ruled out human action. I was considering tearing the liner out when my car burned up (i had not owned the car long).
Coolant was found leaking onto the floor of the front passenger seat.in addition, one of the coolant hoses developed a leak, causing the vehicle to begin overheating.the dealer replaced the hose, but also reported the heater core o-rings needed to be swapped.the o-rings caused the original problem of coolant leaking to the vehicle's interior.after a short online investigation, this appears to be a problem for quite a few range rover owners.

The contact owns a 2000 land rover range rover.whenever the contact depressed the accelerator pedal, she would hear a loud noise.there are no warning indicators illuminated when the failure occurs.the dealer stated that the intake manifold developed a large hole and, because it was a hole instead of a split, the failure would not be included in the recall.she called the manufacturer, but has not received a response.the intake manifold has not been repaired.the nhtsa campaign id number was unknown.the failure and current mileages were 111,000.
While driving 55 mph on i-80, my 2000 range rover engine cut out, after pulling to the side of the road, a small flame was visible under the rear engine. An entire fire extinguisher was emptied under the car, yet the vehicle burned up 100%. A total loss of all contents of the vehicle. My son was lucky to escape from the vehicle. The range rover had 128,000 and was regularly serviced by the dealer. The car is available for viewing at jacks towing yard in sacramento, california.

Broken eas system (land rover).
Broken eas system (land rover).
1.whenever i drive over speed bumps or pot holes, it feels like the body of the vehicle vibrates.2. While the vehicle is in motion, i hear a lot of rattling noise.
After approximately one month of operation, i noticed that the driver's side rear view mirror vibrated constantly making it very difficult to view traffic to the left side of the driver.the sensation is similar to focusing on an object while being tossed to and fro.i have made many requests to the dealer to have the situation repaired to no avail.i am now in the process of filing a complaint through the states lemon law statute.several customers have complained about the mirror and none have received any assistance.i have received conflicting responses from technical and engineering professionals associated with land rover.these responses include mechanical defects, just my personal problem, and engineering design defect.
