  I expected more from a Land Rover - 2002 Land Rover Freelander
  By HutchNY - July 29 - 12:33 pm

  I drive a lot on the road, and live on a farm. It is a tough little car and Im not afraid to take it off-road from time to time. It does hold up to the rigors of off roading quite well, but there are too many little squeaks that i cant get rid of. Great stereo and the seats are comfortable. My biggest gripe is that i have to go to the dealer for oil changes. No one else carries the filters.

  Too Mnay Problems - 2002 Land Rover Freelander
  By martman99 - May 17 - 6:00 am

  This was Land Rovers supposed entry-level vehicle for their "premium" line of autos. Have yet to get that "premium" feel. Too many electrical and engine problems and now there appears to be a transmission issue with this car although we have kept up with the maintenance. Additionally, the dealership is NOT owned by Land Rover and they are less than helpful. Land Rover, NAs customer service dept has to be one of the worst I have had the opportunity to deal with in my 30 years of buying and maintaining cars. DO NOT buy a used Freelander - You WILL regret it!

  What a nightmare! - 2002 Land Rover Freelander
  By Ronda - April 30 - 3:46 pm

  Dont be fooled by the Land Rover name or how the truck drives. These things are a nightmare. I had a gasket replaced at 80000 miles and it seems that I was one of the lucky ones to have mine last that long. I have been told that eventually I will need a new motor. The truck drives great in the snow and will turn heads driving down the road. That is if you can keep it out of the shop long enough to enjoy it. Buyer beware!

  Multiple Problems - 2002 Land Rover Freelander
  By jmiddleton - November 4 - 2:00 am

  The day I bought the car the problems began. I have had problems with the gas gauge reading empty when it wasnt. One day the engine coolant container desided to break for no reason at all and smoke up my engine. I havent taken it off roading because I am afraid it is going to break down on me. The dealer told me that it is usual for the breaks to go out at about 15000 miles. I have had warning lights come one multiple times for no reason. And the list goes on.
