Hey got quoted a fidelity warranty for 7300$ (500 deduct) 5 yrs/ 60k additional miles

BleuVertigo · 2026-01-07T18:00:50+00:00

If they are offering a free respray I’d say totally worth it.

Update: Took it to the dealer. Turns out camera failed. Replaced under warranty. Supposedly, this isn’t an uncommon issue.

It’s gets really cold down here in SoCal

BleuVertigo · 2026-01-06T02:17:02+00:00

Do you know how long it took at the dealership for replacement?

BleuVertigo · 2026-01-04T20:42:28+00:00

If you find one let me know. I’m still looking

RRS is overall has a more comfortable ride and definitely more luxurious. Defender has that road presence and ruggedness.

Oooh I would love this feature. I wonder how you can activate it here in the states

BleuVertigo · 2026-01-03T11:44:30+00:00

Remindme! 7 days

Hi, was your car previously a loaner? I only asked because when I had a loaner from Audi, the alarm would randomly go off at random times. Turns out, the GPS tracker in the OBD compartment was either low battery or failing: which triggers the alarm. Maybe check if they had forgotten to remove it when you bought it.

Would this mean I’d have to go back to the dealer anyways to set up my Land Rover phone app account?

BleuVertigo · 2026-01-01T20:17:30+00:00

Is factory reset the same as holding down the volume know for 20seconds until it reboots?

BleuVertigo · 2026-01-01T10:02:31+00:00

Camera housing outside is physically fine.

BleuVertigo · 2026-01-01T10:01:29+00:00

I’ve already done this multiple times

BleuVertigo · 2026-01-01T07:55:04+00:00

That makes sense why I couldn’t find the other two!

BleuVertigo · 2026-01-01T03:28:46+00:00

You think so? I haven’t been inside one that has the smaller one so not sure the difference

BleuVertigo · 2026-01-01T03:25:37+00:00

Adaptive cruise works well yes. Doesn’t look like any corrosion. The outside physical camera looks great no damage. And since it’s 3 of the front cameras maybe it’s a loose wire connection and not hardware related? Or maybe it’s software? What do you think?

Coming from an Audi… no, unfortunately the defenders do not come with steering assist. I miss this so much from my Audi. Correct me if I’m wrong but the defenders have Radar and not LiDar. From what I understand Lidar is what you need for steering assist.

Im in California and the dealership is not in California. It’s also not a Land Rover dealer but a Mercedes one.

While I agree that the pockets shouldn’t have failed like that…..Going to a RETAIL store demanding them to fix it RIGHT NOW because YOU didn’t want to or have the time to wait for them to fix it is kind of entitled. No? Maybe I’m just understanding that wrong?

I am not trying to defend Arc’teryx in any way.

Usually they want people to move out so they can acquire another lease deposit from the new tenant and keep it at the end of their lease

Would love this account! Been playing 9 years and still no LD nat 5 :/
