So how does it work, do you have to point out the problem or do they automatically check for these things? It's funny, the snap broke on my cargo blind and I've tried to repair it a few times to no avail, I never considered having LR repair it but obviously it's a problem. |

The customer has to mention the problem to the service department. These things are only fixed when the customer complains about it, because they don't apply to all cars, not all customers will notice them, and not all customers will be bothered by them. BUT, if it is a genuine complaint, they can now fix it. |

My cargo snap went as quick as the first tank of fuel.. guess I'll let them fix it. I think I left it sitting on the TVR's sunroof. The lumbar didn't work when it rolled of the lot, they put a new seat in back then. Seat rattle ...hmmm I've notice more noise lately but I really do need to clean all the kids shit out of their to rule that out. Never had a ww weep problem. Thanks Alyssa for posting this update. |

A lot of people experience problems when filling their tank. The pump prematurely shuts off before the tank is full. It has to do with the fuel filler neck, and that is what is addressed on the service action. |

Alyssa, you rule. Mine does that. It's a minor inconvenience, and some pumps seem more sensitive to it than others. But, I'll have it checked out at the next service. Thanks again

Alyssa, Could you explain what is done to fix the fuel filling problem? I'm 40k miles out of warranty but often have trouble during the summer. |

Alyssa, are these items covered if you're out of warranty? |

Nevermind. Just reread your original post. ..."Hey, everyone still in warranty". Thanks for the great info though. |
