2004 LAND ROVER NEW RANGE ROVER — Complaint #647416

Open-data reference.

NHTSA Complaint about POWER TRAIN:MANUAL TRANSMISSION:FLOOR SHIFT ASSEMBLY filed November 26, 2007

NHTSA complaint #647416 (ODI reference 10209922) concerns a 2004 LAND ROVER NEW RANGE ROVER and was filed on November 26, 2007. The owner reports the failure occurred on November 25, 2007. The vehicle had 84,000 miles on the odometer at the time of the incident. The report was geocoded to California based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as power train:manual transmission:floor shift assembly, one of NHTSA's standardized taxonomy codes used to group defect patterns across make, model, and year.

The filer flagged the following severity indicators: crash: no, fire: no, injuries: 0, fatalities: 0. No crash, fire, or fatality was associated with this report, which places it in the early-warning stream rather than the priority-review stream. Because a VIN was supplied, this complaint is tied to a specific vehicle and not just a model-year cohort.

Individual complaints are consumer-submitted and unverified by NHTSA engineers — the agency's role at this stage is to collect, index, and make them searchable. What matters for federal action is the pattern: when many owners of the same LAND ROVER NEW RANGE ROVER cohort independently describe similar power train:manual transmission:floor shift assembly failures, defect investigators have grounds to open a PE and request manufacturer data. Related filings for the same vehicle and component appear below, and the detail page for the full 2004 LAND ROVER NEW RANGE ROVER shows the complete component-level complaint distribution alongside any active investigations or recalls.

Complaint Description

WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY @ ABOUT 65 MPH A LOUD SCREECHING NOISE JUST CAME OUT OF NO WHERE THEN THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE WHEN PUTTING YOUR FOOT ON THE GAS & WHEN I TRIED TO ACCELERATE IT WAS ACCOMPANIED BY MORE LOUD GRINDING NOISES! WE WERE ALMOST KILLED ON THE FREEWAY BECAUSE WE WERE IN THE FAST LANE & THE CAR LOCKED UP!!! I HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED HOME @ A COST OF $300. THERE WAS AN INVESTIGATION OPENED FOR HER PROBLEM ACTION # EA0712 FOR COMPONENT POWER TRAIN:DRIVELINE:DIFFERENTIAL UNIT, POWER TRAIN:AXLE ASSEMBLY:AXLE SHAFT, POWER TRAIN:DRIVELINE:DRIVESHAFT. PRIOR TO THIS I HAVE HAD NO PROBLEMS OR ANY SIGNS OF ANY PROBLEM WITH MY 2004 RANGE ROVER HSE. I CALLED RANGE ROVER TODAY (MONDAY 11/26/07) @ 1-800-637-6837 AND WAS RUDELY ADVISED BY THE REP. THAT SHE WASN'T A AUTO MECHANIC & THAT I WOULD HAVE TO DEAL WITH IT WITH MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP. I CAN'T IMAGINE THIS JUST BEING A NORMAL ROUTINE PROBLEM IN OWNING THIS CAR & WOULD LIKE A ANSWER. I LOVE MY ROVER BUT CAN'T AFFORD T
