Nice little ride - 2002 Land Rover Freelander
By devynsdad - September 25 - 5:10 pmI had a 2002 Freelander for about a year and a half before we had a third child and traded up to a Discovery. In the time I had it I had one problem with the coolant hose popping, but I was just pulling into my driveway when it happened, so no biggy. We made three 1000+ mile roundtrips in the Freelander, and had no problems at all. In a sea of Escapes, Libertys Rav4s and CRVs the Freelander is a very sweet little alternative. Plus Land Rover dealerships treat everyone so much better than other makes its amazing.

Do Not Buy a Freelander - 2002 Land Rover Freelander
By schpank - September 4 - 2:53 pmWorst vehicle Ive ever had. Bloated dealer service, brakes need replacing every 10k miles ($400 if dealer does it), uncomfortable seats unless you are 51", no real S or U in an SUV. Ive owned Honda CRV, Audi A4, Nissan Maxima, Nissan Truck and Hyundai Excel - all were far better than this. This the worst vehicle mistake I hope to ever make. Buy something else!

A real off road vehicle - 2002 Land Rover Freelander
By ThorsDad - August 31 - 2:00 amLike most SUV buyers we purchased this vehicle as a daily driver. That was until Land Rover invited us to a free off-road school. In case you didnt already know, buying a Land Rover makes you a member of their club. After a full day of driving the off road vehicle park in Hollister, CA we came to the conclusion that the Freelander is not a car nor a truck but a real 4x4 off road vehicle. Without any prior off road experience our group drove our stock Freelanders over black diamond trails with minimal coaching from our instructors. Even veteran off-roaders stopped and got out there cameras as we traversed some extreme terrain. Best quote of the day: "WOW!"

LR Freelander S - 2002 Land Rover Freelander
By Gylfaginning - August 7 - 10:00 amA former owner of a 93 Jeep Cherokee Sport (one of the world-wide top ten, ever), I interpret the Liberty as an aesthetic offense (whatever the magazines say, "retro" was dead upon arrival). Moreoever, Chrysler dealers are Chrysler dealers; and the cheap extended warranty that they push does not compensate for the Rovers (true) warranty (with ABS [yes we know the Paul-Bunyan Off-R. excuse], etc.), build, handling, and style.

Defective Air Conditioner: Sprays water - 2002 Land Rover Freelander
By wish I didnt buy it - July 8 - 10:00 amIn 9 months our vehicle has been to dealer 4 times to repair AC. AC sprays water out dash vents into passenger compartment. Has damaged dash electrical components, including the radio. Service bulletins did not fix problem. Vehicle depreciated approximately 35% in only 9 months. We do not intend to purchase another Freelander. It seems like it is in the dealers garage more than it is in our own.

The Greatest Small SUV on the Planet - 2002 Land Rover Freelander
By Rovaman - June 12 - 11:50 amThe moment I steped into this SUV I could feel its quality. The test drive impressed me even more with the cars handling and steering beating all of its competetors. A MUST SEE.

nothing but troubles - 2002 Land Rover Freelander
By wildrover - May 11 - 9:06 amI have had NOTHING but problems with my Rover. It has overheated 4X. Been in the dealership for overheating 3X. They tell me the overheating is due to something different each time. so this time it is in a different shop, since it is now not under warranty. I searched for mechanics - no one wants to touch it. I finally found a place to fix it.. & they are charging me $900.00. They say it needs a new water pump and they have to take apart 1/2 the engine to get to it. I owe the dealership that I bought it from $1000.00 for its MANY other repairs. I am a single mom.. & my credit is awful, so I cant trade it in. I am working to pay for my work transportation. ERGH ! frustrating !

This car is a Lemon! - 2002 Land Rover Freelander
By AM - April 3 - 11:03 pmThis car is a lemon. Engine needed to be replaced at 29K, Transmission at 40K miles. And this car was well- taken care of. We were told by the service dept to get rid of the car at the end of the warranty because of all the problems the Freelander is known to have. Too bad we didnt get the same warning from the sales dept!
