Build Quality New Range Rover Sport

I picked up my new RRS last Friday went to to wash the car yesterday when the boot was open I noticed a noticeable air gap between the boot seal and the back bumper, you can actually see the wiring in the bumper if you look at the far right and left extremes. I took the car into the dealer to complain when we looked at two other brand new sports in show room the had the same issue. The master technician took photos of the gap and will be lodging a quality fault back to range rover in the mean time he has ordered me a new seal. I think we may be seeing a recall soon !! Anyone have a similar problem ?

It's not often that the words 'build', 'quality' and 'Range' 'Rover' are used in the same sentence in a good way.........and this thread seems no exception!! Sad

This sort of QC problem is one of the reasons why I decided to buy an Audi A8 4.2TDI instead of a new RRS

2013 Range Rover Sport SDV6 HSE Orkney Grey

One of the reasons I bought a RRS Black Edition, I have a concern over new model launches and am quite happy for others to be the ones to iron out the early problems.

Not just Land Rover but most if not all manufacturers. 2023 P440e SE Dynamic on order -cancelled

2022 HSE Dynamic P400e

2017 Discovery 3.0 HSE Silicon Silver Nimbus interior and a few extra toys SOLD

2013 HSE Black, Orkney Grey, Ebony Seats and Ivory Interior SOLD

2006 HSE

Plus a few other cars inbetween!
