timing belt issue

Just out of warranty 2012 Range Rover Evoque costs $22,600 in repairs

90k - heater fan - $1600 bill
110k - rear end bearing and cracked turbo manifold causing exhaust fumes in cabin - $6000 bill
140k - Engine light came on, appointment booked with dealer immediately. Timing belt failed before reaching the appointment date! Repair estimate is $15,000!!!

Loved this vehicle, There were no issues until it was out of warranty. Land Rover isn't standing behind their product or offering any help. I expected much more from a premium company.

Has anything like this happened to anybody else?

Sorry to hear about your failures - you have been very unlucky

We have just taken delivery of a late 2014 Evoque and was hoping it was going to be as reliable as our Freelander 2 (LR2) as it shares many components Eg engine electrics and early ones had a similar transmission.. ours lasted 298,000km (185,000miles) before the wife convinced me to go to the dark side.

I don't hold out much hope with LR sympathy when out of warranty - even with full LR service history
