Brian,
You said it, "ANOTHER lemon vehicle".
Every make and model has, at some time or other, had a few vehicles that could be described as lemons.
Even the so called fabulous/perfect Toyota's, (just ask the owners) have had a goodly number of recalls and a number of vehicles that were absolute duds that spent more time in workshops than on the road.
We all know that Nissan have a problem with the ZD30 motor, that Ford had problems with some
Explorers, Toyota had front diff problems with some IFS Landcruisers and Landrover had problems with electronics on some units.
Once these issues are sorted there are no more problems. even with the much ridiculed Landrovers.
As an aside, when aftermarket mods are fitted (tyres and wheels in particular) these will place extra loads on all transmission components with increased possibility of failure.
Just because one vehicle has it's problems there is no need to tar them all with the same brush.
Just my thoughts.
Disco.
