Warranty issue.

Can anyone help me out,,the my14 AB I sold about a month ago has now got a snapped crankshaft,,ive spoke to someone in warranty & they said the car is covered by approved warranty till next july.The dealer where the car is is trying to say it is wear & tear,,The warranty company said they are sending me paper work out to sign for warranty transfer but I have had nothing yet.Does anyone have a number for LR direct so we can get this sorted as Hunters Chester are saying 18k plus vat for new engine & the chap who bought it aint happy.How car a crankshaft be wear & tear,,so every time we service a car do we take sump off to inspect crank,,,im just glad I let LR do the last service instead of myself.

Can't help with the warranty issue but noticed my local Indy has a 2014 3.0l in for a new engine this week, are LR engines made of cheese ? I've owned lots of different brands over the years and never heard of so many catastrophic failures in cars that are relatively young. Nanocom Evo

Even dealers are saying their is a problem with the crank snapping so how can they say its not covered under warranty..Plus anyone reading these comments are NOT going to buy one if its not covered.Im just glad ive gone forpetrol this time.

Even the cheapest Censored vehicle should be good for that mileage - if it's wear and tear then it's substandard components Evil or Very Mad Wanted a Series 2 LR since childhood but previously owned MY16 Disco Sport HSE TD4 Auto, MY13 RR Sport Black Edition TDV6 Auto, MY10 RR Sport HSE TDV6 Auto, 2007 Freelander 1 Freestyle TD4 Soft Top, 2009 Freelander 2 GS TD4 Auto, 2007 Freelander 2 GS TD4, 2004 Disco 2 Metropolis Auto, 2002 Disco 2 GS, 2000 Freelander 1 SE TD4 SW

Its got nothing to do with the old warranty, as previously said, as it was sold by LR approved car it would have come with a full 2 year warranty package in its own right and he would be covered by that. It’s nothing to do with you, just the dealership and LR to sort out, you sold it /Part X and your part stops there. They should just honour warranty either new, or the old one which they don’t need you to sign over, absolute rubbish! it’s up to the new customer/dealer, that’s what I have always done. Confused as to why you are being involved, for as explained. John

I'm just trying to help the guy out who bought it from me Johnski,,even LR warranty told me on tues that the warranty belongs to the car & it doesn't run out till next july,,LR just wanted to confirm I sold the vehicle private.Like you say it should just get fixed,it is a ongoing problem with cranks snapping so even without a LR warranty at 34k they shouldn't be having problems like this,,i get Peugeots in my place for mot with 200k plus mileage that don't have priblems like LR do,,thats if the sport will last that sort of mileage which I doubt.

Jolly decent of you Andy to try and assist the new owner.
One of the main reasons I use Hatfields at Pickering, is the appalling service received from Hunters in Chester and the LR dealership at Llandudno Junction. It will be easier once our move from Wales to Scarborough is completed.
As you say, I don't understand the problem as technically the car now has two LR warranties, when they log on the car for service etc it shows if it's on warranty, what type, finish date etc. Whistle John

What concerns me is that the crankshaft snapped on a my14. I thought they'd fixed that on the 2012 Merc C220 estate Sport AMG

LR warranty even admitted their is a problem with the cranks snapping on the early L494’s,,,so if their is a problem why aren’t they fixing the car,,like Johnski says,,they know it still has warranty so this car should have been fixed without any Fone calls asking if I sold it to dealer or private,,customer gave good money for the car because it still had LR warranty till July next year.
