@xdms Did you end up camping in your car? Curious what your experience was. Thinking about taking my MY LR this year and looking for some info/data. :)

I can attest to the quality issues. I took delivery on January 31st, vin 108,0XX and I've had a number of issues. Most notably, a missing penthouse perimeter seal that caused a high pitch sound while driving at any speed MY Loud Whine . And now, a vibration issue while driving that makes the...

Yeah, it was quite...surprising. I'm pretty irritated that they replaced a perfectly fine rear-drive unit. Especially since my car has begun to vibrate after this service appointment. I've already taken my car back to the Santa Monica SC. I went on a test drive with a manager there and he told...

Hello, I had a similar issue with the loud whining MY Loud Whine Long story short, my vehicle was missing the penthouse perimeter seal and it had to be added. However, the SC initially thought it was my rear drive unit and they replaced that first which didn't correct the issue. After that...

The first SC was Centinela in Los Angeles. The second was West LA.

Saga Update: I took my car to a second SC on Feb. 16 and explained the issue. A tech. drove the car and agreed the noise was unbearable. They said they would do some troubleshooting to determine what the cause was. I also asked if they could verify the penthouse perimeter seal was present and...

I pulled out the lower rear seat cushion and it does not appear that the Perimeter Penthouse Seal is present. I believe there should be a gray sponge material in the lower part of the cavity here.

Yeah, I'm super disappointed with the vehicle right now and the SC for being so dismissive. I'm planning to remove the rear seat cushions myself and try to see if I can find anything abnormal.

Decided to get a proper video of a drive. Phone is on a tripod in the middle rear seat.

Any update?

At this point in time, I would not buy again. I have a major issue with a loud whining sound coming from the rear of my vehicle and the SC has not been helpful. I would advise seeing if your delivery center would allow you to drive the car a bit before taking the vehicle. It's unlikely but worth...

Here are two recordings of the sound my car makes. Recorded on iPhone 12 Pro Max from the back seat. Original: Dropbox - Original.mp3 - Simplify your life High-Pass Filter @ 2700 Hz: Dropbox - High-Pass Filter 2700Hz cutoff.mp3 - Simplify your life

Thanks! I spoke to the service advisor and the technician that serviced my vehicle. I requested they provide me with the test results or a test report that states my car passed their tests and they made a claim that the data was proprietary but they'd see what they could provide me. I found...

EXACTLY !!!

I asked what component was making the noise and they could not tell me. I requested data or a test report which shows that my car passes their tests and is within their specification and they claim it's proprietary information and cannot be provided but they'd check what they can give to. I was...
