SUMMARY:
PURCHASED A 2005 LR3 IN 2009
SUSPENSION FELL IN 2010 EVERY SINCE I'VE HAD ISSUES WITH THE HCD INACTIVE SWITCH. HCD INACTIVE WAS COMING ON PRIOR TO
SUSPENSION FALLING AND CONTINUES TO AS OF 11/11. ABS LIGHT AND AIRBAG LIGHT ALSO TURNS ON ANYTIME THROUGHOUT THE DAY AND SHUTS OFF. BEFORE THE
SUSPENSION FELL I CONSTANTLY PAID DEALER TO DIAGNOSE AND THEY DID NOT FIND ANY PROBLEM WITH THE
SUSPENSION..SHORTLY AFTER WHILE I WAS DRIVING THE
SUSPENSION FELL. AS OF 11/11 MY ABS, HCD INACTIVE LIGHTS KEEP TURNING ON, THE DASHBOARD INCLUDING RADIO LIGHTS BLINK ON/OFF. PAST TWO WEEKS WHILE DRIVING THE CAR SLOWS DOWN AND THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKS IN PLACE. MECHANIC CANNOT FIND ELECTRICAL ISSUES. MECHANIC DID FIND MY REAR INNER TIRES ARE BALD AND DANGEROUS. AFTER REVIEWING VARIOUS RR COMPLAINTS IT IS BEYOND MY UNDERSTANDING WHY RR ARE ABLE TO CONTINUE TO SELL $60,000 TRUCKS WITHOUT ANY FORM OF LEGAL ACTION. THE COMPANY AND PUBLIC ARE AWARE OF THE FAULTY ISSUES, THE ISSUES ARE DANGEROUS AND ALL COMMON IE:
SUSPENSIONS FALLING, BALD INNER TIRES, GAS LEAKS. THE QUESTION RAISED ARE THESE SITES, CONSUMER COMPLAINTS ETC FOR CUSTOMERS TO VENT OR FOR ACTION TO TAKE PLACE?? 2 YEARS AND I'M ON MY SECOND SET OF TIRES!! PEOPLE ARE BUSTED FOR SELLING FAKE PRODUCTS SUCH AS PURSES, CLOTHES, BUT RR IS LOOKED OVER FOR KNOWINGLY MANUFAC., DANGEROUS VEHICLES. *TR

Vehicle Identification No. (VIN): SALME11404A...
SUMMARY:
SUSPENSION: SOUND COMING FROM THE FRONT END
SUSPENSION WHEN MAKING TURNS AT LOW SPEEDS. IT¿S HAPPENS MOSTLY WHEN SLOWING DOWN TO PULL INTO A PARKING LOT OR WHEN YOU HIT A BUMP OR GO OVER RAILROAD TRACKS. HAD LOWER CONTROL ARM, LOWER STRUT AND LOWER BALL JOINT TO TRY FIX PROBLEM BUT NOT THE CASE STILL HAVING ISSUE.
SUSPENSION: FRONT/REAR IMBALANCE THE EAS WILL INTERMITTENTLY RAISE THE FRONT OF THE CAR AND NOT THE REAR. COULD BE PARKED-I GET IN AND START AND IT WILL POP UP-LEAVING THE REAR DOWN SO THE CAR APPEARS TO "SQUAT". HAD HEIGHT SENSORS REPLACED. THE FRONT END HAS OVER 2-3 INCHES GREATER CLEARANCE THAN THE REAR WHEN THIS OCCURS.
SUSPENSION: RATTLE UNDER VEHICLE WHEN YOU ACCELERATE BODY: PASSENGER DOOR CAN¿T BE OPENED FROM INSIDE OR OUT, DOOR LOCK SEEMS TO FREEZE/JAM. BODY: DOOR SEALS LEAKING WATER GETTING IN BETWEEN THE INNER AND OUTER SEALS ON THE REAR DOORS. LIGHTING: CONDENSATION IN TAIL LIGHTS. *TR
