I would have thought that (with any other manufacturer) this fault would warrant a recall. I wonder how many unreported minor collisions it has caused.

Just to update after the rejection of my D350 that was rolling back in drive. I received my replacement that I ordered back in December 2024 on Friday and I am pleased to report that this one does not roll back and feels so much smoother to drive!

I am so happy and glad I rejected, despite the stress of it all, because the difference in the drive between the 2 cars is like night and day! I now understand why everyone was saying how amazing these defenders drive! Bow down MY25.5 Defender 90 D350 X Dynamic HSE - Maximus

That's great news, glad you managed to get the vehicle replaced. lt sounds like the new ones don't have the issue any more then.

l hope LR can eventually rectify the problem on existing vehicles.

Mine is in for it right now

Ironically the slightly older 74 plate d250 courtesy car is even worse than mine! Mike
