bad apple - 2002 Land Rover Freelander
By HNV - August 29 - 10:00 amOur Freelander has been nothing but problems. First of all, you can not take it off road, even though that is what they are designed for. Secondly, if you do take it off road, be prepared to pay dearly for any repairs it needs. We have paid for almost $20,000 in repairs that Land Rover claims are caused by offroading, even though the car has not been offroading for almost a year. Our car was poorly made, and does not hold up to what Land Rover claims and advertises it is, and they do not stand by their vehicle. I am reluctant to drive it now, fearing the transmission (which has been completely replaced) will die and leave me stranded again.

Not Happy - 2003 Land Rover Freelander
By Julie - August 26 - 7:06 pmI have had my Freelander 16 months. So far the battery had to be replaced, a vaccum hose has been replaced, the heater core went and when fixing that the vaccum motor had to be replaced. I am now on my 3rd radio due to problems with the radio or GPS. And my new problem is the lighter has quit working. Of course this has all been covered by warranty but should all this be wrong with a new car and an inconvience to me as I had to keep taking the vehicle to the dealership until my husband bought the LR3 so now they bring me a loaner and pick mine up. I really like the design of the vehicle but service was not good until we became a 2 Landrover Household.

Rocky Mt Rover - 2004 Land Rover Freelander
By Rocky Mts - August 24 - 10:00 amI moved to Colorado from Louisiana this summer and decided to trade in my little sports car for a more snow-worthy vehicle. For me, a single guy with no kids, the Freelander SE3 was perfect: inexpensive but unique, fun to drive, agile on road and off, practical, and (best of all) providing an open air driving experience. I am very happy so far with the SE3.

Great handling but shoddy parts - 2002 Land Rover Freelander
By Michael - August 14 - 2:30 pmIn spite of problems with acceleration and poor component parts, the car drives very well and I completely trust it in bad weather. It is comfortable and the engine/drive train have been reliable.

Beware! Total Lemon - 2003 Land Rover Freelander
By chrisl - August 2 - 1:00 amThis care is a piece of crap. UNDEPENDABLE! Have had it 3 years and nothing but problems. Thank God I purchased an aftermarket warranty which more than paid for itself. The warranty has expired and I have to dump this car pronto and cut my losses. Anyone who owns this car and hasnt had problems should consider themselves lucky as it seems to be few and far in between.

Run, Dont Walk, Away from This Car!! - 2002 Land Rover Freelander
By DHall - July 31 - 12:33 amWe really like the look of this car and interior, but the reliability and service is the worst. This car has been nothing but problems since day 1. Service people not friendly and overcharge you on everything. Dealerships all very far away unless you live in a bigger city. Engine went out at 50,000 miles, right after lease bought out and warranty up conveniently. Brakes suddenly went out with no warning and ruined the rotors right away. Heater never worked right and sunroof broken. NEVER AGAIN will I step foot on a Land Rover lot or recommend them to someone else. I wouldnt want someone else to be stuck like us. Run away fast!!

hope you dont wreck - 2002 Land Rover Freelander
By kosjo - July 27 - 10:00 amInitail diappointment derived from poor quality interior (some elements did not even match), cheap leather, disturbing heating elements embedded in the windshield (which have become more distracting with time), and an annoying lurch between first and second gear. Catastrophe set in when I was struck by a hit and run driver. Since Feb 27 2002 (today is June 6th), Land Rover has been unable to supply parts to repair the vehicle! Moreover, the national customer service has ranged from disinterested to rude.

Superstylin - 2003 Land Rover Freelander
By tifso - July 23 - 10:00 amI have had "Froggie" for four months now and I absolutely LOVE this SUV. I love the Monaco blue color, the handling, the solid feel of everything, the fact that I am the only one in town with a blue SE3. The experience at the dealership was world class - I was taken care of 100% and now feel like part of an elite club. One day I hope to go in to buy a Range Rover, either way, Im sticking with this brand. But what the hell are they thinking with Ford taurus window switches on the 2004 Freelander SE?

What a deal - 2004 Land Rover Freelander
By patsrr - July 17 - 10:00 amThis unit rides & drives great, & the base se comes with a ton of standards. For the price of a comparable escape, crv, or rav4 you can have a land rover
