THE FRONT WINDSHIELD DRIPS WATER FROM THE TOP PASSENGER SIDE. THE WINDSHIELD HAS HAD NO CRACK OR DING OR OTHER DAMAGE

I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO FILL THE GAS TANK COMPLETELY, AND THE PUMP SHUTS OFF MULTIPLE TIMES DURING THE REFUEL PROCESS EVERY TIME I PUMP GAS. I HAVE TRIED DIFFERENT ANGLES, DIFFERENT GAS STATIONS, TRIED TO REFUEL SLOWLY BUT IT STOPS MULTIPLE TIMES.

DEFECTIVE GEAR SELECTOR. DRIVER PARKED THE CAR AND SWITCHED IT OFF. DRIVER EXITED THE VEHICLE WITH THE KEYS. THE CAR ROLLED BACKWARDS WITHOUT ANYONE IN THE CAR. THE CAR RAN OVER A STATIONARY MOTORCYCLE AND OVER AND INTO A LOW WALL CAUSING ABOUT $20,000 WORTH OF DAMAGE. ACCORDING TO THE MANUAL, THE CAR IS SUPPOSED TO HAVE AN AUTOMATIC BRAKE WHEN SWITCHED OFF AND EXITED. FROM THE MANUAL: "THE EPB APPLIES AUTOMATICALLY IF THE IGNITION IS SWITCHED OFF AND THE VEHICLE'S SPEED IS BELOW 2 MPH (3 KM/H)." THE ACCIDENT HAPPENED ON JUNE 14, 2018. MY INSURANCE - FARMER' INSURANCE - FILED A CLAIM/COMPLAINT WITH RANGE ROVER, BUT IT WAS DENIED BY RANGE ROVER. PLEASE HELP WITH THIS - IT IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. WE ARE LUCKY THAT THE CAR DID NOT DRIVE OVER A PERSON WALKING BEHIND THE CAR. I HAVE READ MANY OTHER REPORTS OF THIS SAME ISSUE WITH RANGE ROVER.

MY DRIVER SEAT HAS BEEN STUCK AND DOESN'T MOVE BACK AND FORTH FORM IT'S POSITION AND IT'S NOT SAFE TO DRIVE , ALSO THE LANE ASSISTANT DOES NOT WORK. ALSO MY CAR IS STUCK IN PARK AND DOESN'T MOVE FROM P

FRONT WINDSHIELD STARTING LEAKING WHERE THE TOP OF THE GLASS AND THE INTERIOR HEADLINER MEETS. CAR HAS 42000 MILES.

WATER DRIPS IN FROM WINDSHIELD. THIS CAUSES A DISTRACTION WHILE DRIVING. I'M ASSUMING THE SEAL IS BAD.

DURING A TORRENTIAL DOWNPOUR MY CAR BEGAN LEAKING WHILE PARKED ON THE STREET. THE LEAKING SUBSIDED ONCE THE RAIN STOPPED. THE HEADLINER AND MY HEATED SEATS BOTH GOT WET DUE TO THIS ISSUE. WHEN I CONTACTED THE DEALER IN REGARD TO THIS ISSUE I WAS INFORMED THAT THIS WAS A KNOWN ISSUE AND I WOULD NEED TO FILE A CLAIM THROUGH MY INSURANCE OR PAY OUT OF POCKET. TO MY KNOWLEDGE THE WINDSHIELD HAS NEVER BEEN REPLACED AND THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS ISSUE AS I PREVIOUSLY KEPT MY CAR IN A GARAGE.
