You would think so, but you’re thinking of Venezuela. Canada is in the iron grip of a military junta. All tort law is mediated through The Law of the Lumberjack. Litigants must sledge to the arctic circle, where they compete for the amusement of the Lord of Winter and Darkness who sits on his...

As a fairly advanced and mature western democracy are there State or Federal consumer protection laws in Canada? With that many defects surely there is action that can be taken and pressure which can be applied to your dealer to resolve the issue or get a refund? Maybe its your local member of...

Funny, I’m driving one right n Funny, I’m driving one right now I would gladly swap for mine. I have zero complaints about the one I’m driving. None of the crap that in this thread. If my gren was like this gren I’d have only one issue, oil reset. So you see they can actually make it fine. And...

...fixing them. I assume that they will by the way… at least any they can. Vehicle warranties exist to protect the consumer from manufacturing defects not features that you don’t like. If your radio stops working, they will fix it. If your engine leaks oil, they will reseal it. If you don’t like...

When I did my Jeep 392 a year ago with the RO I had these same issues but after parking it in the sun for a few day during the summer all of these micro bubbles went away as well as some of the bigger hazy spots. It looks great now with no visible defects.

Funnily enough my vin in the 4000s has very few issues or defects that basically have no effect on me for the most part. However, the design of the RHD footwell, seat position, oversized console, acute lack of tilt and reach and general cabin space is more of an issue than all other issues...

Mossy INEOS in Houston, Texas is keeping a couple on the shelf, they are out at the moment, I will be dropping a couple more of them off this week or you can order directly from me. 361-319-5434 phone or text Marty Israel Thanks!

It is comprised of 1/2 mounting plate, with 1/4 gussets. Our hitches are magnafluxed and x-rayed for defects prior to paint. Insured.

I love the Grenadier. It’s the defects, the number of them, saying “live with it”, and “it will never fit like new” is UNACCEPTABLE. Out of respect and integrity I’m not throwing the dealer under the bus - feel free to DM me if you have true concerns about where to purchase.

. The vehicle is stock and unmodified. Thank you - I’m aware of the Magnason - Moss Act and you need only meet one of those criteria. Not all of them.

...defect or issue; or The vehicle is in the repair shop and can’t be used for a total of more than 30 days (cumulative) for any combination of defects. It the case of my BMW the N55 engine experienced two vanos failures at about the 1 year mark. I told the service manager that I would like to...

What is the handbrake issue? My only cosmetic. issue on the vehicle is a break in the plastic on the handbrake. Makes me sad every time I get in it. But then I am happy again as soon as I grab the steering wheel. I am up to 17.5k miles now. 6500 in the last 3 weeks. Fantastic vehicle. Is...

...the loudest voices are the ones with defective vehicles, and pretty soon it looks like every vehicle that leaves the factory is riddled with defects. If you’re gonna do it, do it right. There’s what….about 50 threads on here about various problems of various severity? The vast majority of...

It does wire up to the factory 500amp hookup behind the ill Try to make sure to answer all your good questions:

Try speaking to the Boston dealer. Maybe they will have a bit more enthusiasm in giving you answers. If you’ve already lodged the warranty defects then the tickets will be in the system. Also as pointed out elsewhere it’s closer to you to boot.

Why is this depressing? This is an attempt to categorize all know fixable defects, and if you nip them before you go home with it, I'd think with some piece of mind, you'd be all the more happier. Maybe not you, but, I will be. I'm doing it "open source" because it's much easier that way.

...How does the system acknowledge that an inspection, physical wear, safety checks and brake tests are carried out correctly by a DIYer and defects are recorded correctly for warranty or future repairs? It will need extra data storage module to record information and more coding. Every...

Yep. Don't think it's particularly cool to post a thread fearmongering about safety and claiming it's backed up by an independent, objective, expert analysis and then making a bunch of excuses as to why it cannot be shared.

...I don’t think we will be seeing it anyway buddy. Who is to say what is going on, but it certainly gives the impression that the OP is/was looking to vent their spleen, and not a lot more. Some simple bullet points on the defects would be simple to disclose, but even that seems a bridge to far

I particularly liked this comment “Initial assumptions point to technical defects that should not occur in an off-road vehicle of this price range and with this standard.” Initial assumptions is another way of saying "Complete guess" Technical defects I guess is accurate because "technically"...

I guess if you're getting it serviced independently you need to have the mechanic do only what is required of the service and if there are warranty issues to be addressed have them provided a report you can take back to the agent/dealer to have addressed. Unless an independent can somehow work...

...update. Whether that stuff is charged to customer or not I don't know. One would think not for recall or warranty claims of manufacture defects. Software currently falls under a defect with false errors etc. Hmmmm..... Accept the first service maybe. I mean a positive way to look at it too. 5...

If it were the dealer, that'd be one thing. But IA is the ones telling them it's normal and others on this forum have had the same response from IA.

...rights and local laws and simply accept the issues they have. The reality is that as consumers, we have ALOT of protection for manufacturing defects and dealers and the manufacturer has a strong legal obligation to repair or replace. I have seen numerous people on this forum debate and...

I guess, but it would be nice to think that they could have recovered him and found the part.

Ineos? Why? Is bad luck by own driving covered by insurance or only defects Ineos is responsible for? AWo

Those random clicks must have been the lane departure warning (LDW).

If it makes it to a dealer for warranty repair you can guarantee that Ineos knows about it, because they are paying to fix it

...Took mine in Tuesday. They hope to have it back to me Saturday. Worrying that it will take 4 days to fix. I think we should have a thread somewhere (maybe it exists) where we all list all the defects and issues we are having to compile a detailed list to highlight to Ineos, should they even...

I agree, there is definitely something off about the compression/rebound. I have been playing around with tire pressures and I am noticing that the suspension feels a bit more compliant at higher pressures. For example, I am finding 45psi better than 30-36psi. I am waiting for Dobinson or...

It’s even weirder, that to me I can sense ver small things- like sealant standing proud, but a small pothole, not so much. It’s like the more the suspension has to move, it does better than if the tire is mainly transmitting a very small feature… Next month I’ll be able to do side by sides...

...Sometimes it feels like the shock rebound on road is overdone almost making it feel like it is over reacting to the on-road road surface defects. I was wondering if anyone has installed tunable shocks and has dialed back the rebound and if that has helped. Not complaining, just musing. DaBull

...but not bumpy or ‘bouncy’. It does seem that the IG, especially in the back seat, is a bit louder than it ‘should’ be. That part of the highway does have a bit of an undulation to it. I’m surprised at how the IG transmits fairly small defects in the road surface, but smooth out larger bumps.

I honestly think there is no defects with the seals. It’s just that the boys and girls on the assembly line haven’t stuck it down properly and it’s poorly designed. Rather than use adhesive tape, they could have used other push in fixings. Easy job to fix, use alcohol wipes to clean the area...

The most recent government recall bulletin in Italy has 1156 pages and also involves vehicles such as the Porsche 918 or 911 GT3 and not only for simple windshield wiper defects but, for example, for suspension arms. Getting scandalized by some call from the Grenadier seems out of place to me...

Generally I assume most Warranty items will not be taken care of. They always seem to have an out. Toyota, Ram, Nissan seems like all they warranted were recalls or SOME obvious, known defects. And as for those extended warranties? Not a chance.

It does not help your argument to use phrases like "commiefornia" as it makes you look like a biased lunatic. Speed limiters are not uncommon around the world and they seem to reduce the overall death rate. Remember this is an international forum and some of us have first hand knowledge of real...

The Gren windshield is Toughened, not Laminated, just like the other windows on all the doors. The only Laminated ones are the cargo area side windows. The etchings in the corners of the windows for the Manufacturer Pilkington, that is their brand names for those two different types of glass.

I noticed similar - ADAS incorrectly displaying 25mph speed limit. I had the sound turned off but could still see the ADAS limit displayed. I wondered how bad it would have chirped if I had the sound on?! Donnygrey - I’m in Frenchtown, where are you?

After a few days of driving the ADAS is showing its defects. Driving on Rt. 22 (in NJ) with speed limits at 55mph the system repeatedly reverted to 25mph after reading and recording 55mph. Began to wonder if it was reading the 22 (for the highway). This also occurred on side streets -...

Mine have been tinted from June, no signs of bubbles or other defects to date.

My Ineos week started this time on 13th December 23, I’m in the same position as you I think, rejecting my car and either a new one or full refund. chased Tom Johnson up 7 days ago, still nothing other than “he understands my frustration”! We early adopters / vips (Ineos words not mine) with...

I am trying to understand the process of rejecting . I have stated I want a brand new replacement with all costs eg tracker, dash cam , private plate transfer to be covered. I am told they will make a decision on the defects on my car next week....... This may be an Ineos week though..........

...check the effect that has on your right to reject was the advice I was given. This week will determine whether we have ours back or not. At this stage I would be happy if they mended it but if we could get out I think I would. I have become a little disenfranchised by the clear defects in...

Yeah, there are some problems. Just like any automobile manufacturer, especially a very new one. But, for every complaint I hear, I see many happy owners that are enjoying every minute of ownership. We should all know by now that the internet is mainly a place for complainers and wankers...

100%. Ineos should remember who is taking the risk at full price.

...If you read through the comments from those overseas, the US is facing similar problems to our overseas brethren. Communication issues, “defects”/manufacturing issues, delays, etc. are still present. Either Ineos doesn’t care or the people running the company aren’t good at their jobs. Yes I...

...station? - good luck with that! The car still sounds the warning bongs randomly - even when the ignition is off and the car is locked! It is inconceivable that Ineos do not know that their product has serious defects. In summary, Ineos were clearly not ready to go to marker - but they still...

In theory, IA/dealers/agents are working on points 2 and 3.

...its pretty bad. 3) Customer service response times from HQ is not good get a action response number means nothing no one ever replies Defects That will be adressed during first service. 1) Rear Camera needs calibrating to allow hitching to be easier. 2) Doors seals pooling water when...

...I have posted honest facts on the positives and the negatives of my early vehicle. My expectation was always that there would be niggles and defects picked up in everyday , normal people driving. The disappointment and increasing frustration is when IA do not appear to recognise just how deep...

you mention G Wagens, I did consider a G Professional, but after a drive it was a firm no from me. Too slow, too noisy.

...for you and as its generally still untested long term, then, you would have to be aware that long-term risk will arise, resale could be poor, defects may arise, parts or company reliability could faulter etc. I figure in Oz, at anything up at $140K, it opens up the 'near new' GRSport/2018...

Well it didn't take long, I knew someone was going to comment, I am happy to suffer the consequences of my decisions and I wont be claiming warranty for paint defects. Thanks for the heads up but I wont be ever taking it off to look.

Picked mine up yesterday, 130 mile home and everything perfect. Latest software upgrade already done. heard a lot about the steering but it took me ten minutes to acclimatise and all fine

Believe me, I am not trying to disparage the vehicle or the company and I do plan on ordering one. I placed a reservation shortly after reservations opened in the US. I drove the vehicle and liked it so much I cancelled my LR Defender order. There is absolutely nothing else available now or in...

...steering pumps, dodgy pins in transfer box selectors, leaking A/C hoses or condensate drains etc. are a few examples of real manufacturing defects. But we have a poll here and so far of 140 responses, 120 have been minor or no problems at all. Pretty remarkable for a first generation vehicle...

Under the assumption that vehicle quality is improving over time (and some of the threads have multiple months of defect data listed) What kind of defects or issues have we seen from people who have had SEPTEMBER DELIVERIES?

Sorry - I forgot to say that my car (1715) was completed same timing as yours but I dont have any of the other defects/issues you indicated.

...some owners complain that the vehicles have been in the workshop for 4 weeks. It used to be said that with the Defender, which had a 3-year guarantee, most defects would be corrected after 3 years. So maybe Ineos calculated that way and after 5 years of repairs the vehicles will then be running.

Ach herjeh anlasten hört sich immer so merkwürdig an. Ich habe nur beschrieben wie sich das Fahrzeug im Alltag und auf Reisen verhält. Einige Dinge sind einfach nicht wirklich verständlich und man fragt sich was die Entwickler sich dabei gedacht haben. Die Sitzlehnenverstellung z.B. hätte jedem...

...the central speedometer (which I do not find disturbing) were known. And the imprecise steering is forgotten after 50 km. I hope you get the defects either fixed or a reasonable price for the car. It's not worth to get a stomach ulcer because of such a luxury like an off-road vehicle! p.s...

I think the OP is looking for a consolidated list of 'common faults/defects' which there are a few. It is hard to gauge what concerns most people have as they are sporadically listed in several threads. Ill be reviewing the forums for common faults again about 1 week before my GREN is ready for...

We have the "lemon" law.

There is (at least in Germany) a legal way to react: Address a notice of defects to the seller and give him the opportunity to "rectify" within a reasonable deadline. Preferably by registered mail. If this does not happen within that time, you can return the product for a refund. A...

A really well worded email Jean. We are all waiting to hear the reply.

I would guess the majority of owners would identify with at least several of the issues you highlight. For me, like you, it is more the feedback from Ineos that causes me stress. The vehicle is on the whole, brilliant.

...your customers, early supporters, and INEOS is almost non-existent. By not responding, even partially, to the few persistent and irritating defects, this overall satisfaction is clearly tainted. Indeed, since June 13: - I am awaiting the final invoice for my vehicle; - I am also waiting for...

From those pics, I bet it would be hard to see those defects (missing paint around hinges) on a dark colour Grenadier.

Unfortunately, I totally agree that's how my agent Chandlers of Belton (UK) briefed me.

...messages, whereupon he said that you shouldn't underestimate that. Because if you continue to drive a vehicle even though such serious defects (power steering, airbags, transmission ...) are reported, you might risk your warranty: red defects ultimately mean that you are not allowed to...

...might be encountered. Like alvan said though: "I wonder why those who would like to resell their car are pleased to make them public the defects with the evident result of lowering the price." Many times I think the complainers are Land Rover car owners who are just envious of what Sir Jim...

That is a very valid point. You truly need to read those messages with a grain of salt...

...from others...). Having said that, and without depriving anyone of any right, I wonder what the continual complaint of serious or presumed defects by those who declare they want to resell the Grenadier leads to. Apart from the fact that in my long history as a motorist I have always heard of...

The puddle light on the passenger side of my car does not work (the driver’s side seems fine)

Noticed last night that my puddle lamps weren’t working. Lucky it wasn’t raining. 😀 As I get over the euphoria of having my vehicle at home, time I started to list any defects for the dealer to address when updating software.

Is a valid point to be frustrated with IA when they don't provide any information whatsoever about or own personal orders... my dealer cannot get a single bit of factual information for me and has apologised. IA does not respond to my emails requesting a very basic update. At this point in time...

...forum. It is perfectly legitimate to have negative opinions but, honestly, it seems to me unfair and useless towards those who still await, or already possess, a Grenadier with passion. Useful and legitimate reports of defects, absolutely useless questionable statistics and intentions of this...

I'm still in line, but not naive enough to buy a product that's largely been focusing efforts on marketing and hiding defects. I'm also not buying a vehicle until I can test drive it. Anyone else can buy however they want.

It seems to me a case of suppliers ramping up production on their specific products. The 2B and PTO vehicles were few in number enough, that when the suppliers have to start pumping parts out in bulk, the likelihood for defective batches increases. Pretty hard for ineos to combat this before hand.

...and they said none, but hoped to do 2 next week. They also said that more and more were being delivered now as they seem to have sorted the defects I did ask why they couldn’t get it right first time in the factory which they said Ineos are a new company! Knowing I wasn’t going to change...

100% d'accord. If the vehicle tuns out to be on the level of production quality like any other Grenadier, everything is fine. For the rest I think that everything can be fixed. No drama. Just somewhat annoying and disappointing as well.

@emax, personally, I would not overestimate the matter. Certainly, it is unattractive when these defects are visible on a new vehicle. But: I am sure that enough vehicles of other brands arrive at the dealers that are not 100% perfect either. It's just that these things are fixed before the...

Once again i ask Have you placed an order or are you just stirring the pot ?

...isn't good - not on anything abutting new rims on a new vehicle. Are we confident the delay is 'software' and not a myriad of other 'minor' defects that are going to be attended to BEFORE the cars are released en masse to the European market??? I mentioned this in an earlier post, that the...

Back on point: Isnt Toyota's strategy to put their head in the sand, ignore the obvious issues and defects, then implement new car things way too late in the game, call it something else 'cool' and still charge premium? This and ignoring DPF issues - pretty good at that!

...part/assembly, does it fit, is it properly in place, is it damaged...etc etc . The Quality Assurance people need to be trained to spot the defects.... I'm sure that the world press after 8 Feb will point out that "...this was an early production model" etc. In fact, comments from...
