Open the full vehicle complaint log (all categories)REAR TAIL LAMP HOUSINGS FAILED NUMEROUS TIMES CAUSING THE BULBS NOT TO WORK. THIS CREATED A SITUATION WHERE ONLY ONE OR NONE OF THE LAMPS WERE WORKING. I REPLACED THEM AND LATER FOUND OUT THAT A RECALL OR INVESTIGATION WAS ISSUED BUT I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED. INTERIOR DOME LIGHT HAS FAILED TWICE. HEADLAMP FAILURE HAS OCCURRED IN LOW BEAM SIX TIMES AND IN HIGH BEAMS THREE TIMES. THE VEHICLE HAS STALLED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS WHEN THE HEATED SEATS, HEATED WINDSHIELD AND HEADLAMPS WERE ON SIMULTANEOUSLY. *TR
THE FREE LANDER SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT AND SERVICE ENGINE SOON LIGHT CAME ON AND THE VEHICLE LOST ALL ENGINE POWER. THE VEHICLE WAS RETURNED TO THE ASCOT IMPORT CARS WITH LESS THAN 12000 MILES. ASCOT (THE DEALERSHIP) CLEARED THE ERROR CODES AND RETURNED THE FEELANDER. THE NEXT DAY THE LIGHTS CAME ON AGAIN, AND THE CAR'S ENGINE LOST ALL POWER. ASCOT CLAIMED TO REPLACE THE WIRING HARNESS AND THE ECU; HOWEVER, THIS IS HARD TO VERIFY BECAUSE IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO GET ACCURATE SERVICE RECORDS FROM THEM. ON MARCH 25, THE LIGHTS CAME ON AGAIN, THE CAR'S ENGINE LOST POWER; HOWEVER, AFTER THE CAR WAS RESTARTED THE LIGHTS WENT OUT. ASCOT IMPORT CARS IS RELUCTANT TO GIVE US SERVICE RECORDS, AND WHEN THEY DO THEY ARE VERY VAGUE. ALTHOUGH EACH TIME THE PROBLEM OCCURS,IT IS THE SAME, THE DIAGNOSIS IS SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT. I BELIEVE THIS IS AN ATTEMPT TO AVOID A LEMON LAW CLAIM.*AK
WHILE DRIVING THE CAR, FIRST THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, FEW MINUTES LATER A SECOND LIGHT(THE CHECK ENGINE SOON LIGHT) CAME ON, THEN THE CAR STALLED COMPLETELY FROM A SPEED OF 40 KM/HR. THIS IS THE THIRD TIME IM SENDING THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER TO BE CHECKED FOR ENGINE LIGHTS, BUT ITS THE FIRST TIME THE CAR STOPS COMPLETELY. ALL IN ALL THIS IS THE 5TH TIME I HAD A SERIOUS DEFECT, REQUIRING THE CAR TO BE SENT TO THE DEALER.*AK
