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 !

Dont buy it - 2004 Land Rover Freelander
By J. Hartman - May 4 - 10:00 amI should have listened to the dealer. If you want a realible SUV, buy a Toyota. Not a glowing review from the dealer of the car. Constant breakdowns. It needs new tires and brakes on semi annual basis. Impossible to sell. Word travels fast. Bad car in every way. Extremely expensive and unreliable.

Buyers Beware - 2003 Land Rover Freelander
By Jocita - April 28 - 10:00 amFiled Lemon Law on my vehicle! Ashamed that I had to give the vehicle up after a year. Had to take car over 13 times for brake squeak and got fed up. Electrical problems: Wipers ,back window, & radio shorted out. Back seat had annoying squeak when rode over bumps. Dealer could not fix problems. When shifting automatic, it was easy get gear shifter to get stuck between D & 4 on the gear shifter.

Great compact SUV! - 2004 Land Rover Freelander
By zipdedoda4 - April 21 - 2:00 amGreat fully-loaded SUV if youre not willing to cough up the $40,000 for the X3. Ive had it for about 8 months and still havent had any problems. Love it!

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!

Lovin It! - 2003 Land Rover Freelander
By shebby69 - April 2 - 2:00 amWell, after I totalled my Toyota Echo I wanted something that could safely handle changing weather conditions. I test drove everything from Mazda Tributes to Ford Escapes to Isuzu Rodeos to Toyota Rav4s and this was by far my favorite! I dont really understand why many people say the car is not fast, or doesnt shift well. If you manually shift in the "sport" mode the Rover is actually very fast! I love it and cant wait to test it out in warm weather!!!

What was I thinking? - 2003 Land Rover Freelander
By Ana - March 30 - 7:36 pmThought Landrover and Range Rover were reliable vehicles until purchasing my Freelander.What a mistake! After the 5th month of driving it I was left stranded. The thing just completely shut down! Come to find out it was the fuel system. The thing sat at the mechanics for two months, until the part came in from the Dealer in Albuquerque. The fuel pump cost $595! The recall for the fuel system came in August so off to the Dealership we went! & they said the timing belts need replacing (cost: $1800 - it has three). The oil changes we do ourselves for $65 everytime! Or $100 if you can find a decent place thatll do it. DO NOT PURCHASE THIS VEHICLE! Unless you like to throw away your money!

Think twice - 2003 Land Rover Freelander
By Randy - March 26 - 8:10 pmI purchased this car in 2003 because I wanted a sporty, fun and upscale SUV. Since then, I have had numerous problems with this vehicle. These problems include the engine not shutting off while no key in the ignition, severe alignment issues that could not be fixed by Land Rover and an A/C system that shoots ice out of the vents on hot days. I am very diappointed in this vehicle.

Very disappointing - 2003 Land Rover Freelander
By My headache is gone! - March 23 - 7:30 pmLR had a poorly build entry level SUV. Hard to attract current owners to move up to high end models. It eats up brake quickly. Cost almost $600 to change brake pads and rotars every 10K miles. V6 engine is weak and doesnt have any pick up power. Coolant leak even after the dealership fixed twice. Extremely high maintenance cost for a SUV/car that costs only mid $20K. When we purchased the Freelander, dealer was rude since it was the cheapest model out of all the LR models. The value depreciates quickly. After having it for 4 years, I finally sold it.
