I was driving at a speed of about 25mph on a city street and began to brake gently as I was approaching a red light. The distance between my car and the car in front of me at the time I began braking was over 3-cars-length, but not more than 4. This was not an abrupt stop. As I applied the brake I could feel it began to shudder and the car was not slowing down. I pressed the brake more firmly and while it did respond more so than before, the car was by no means slowing down at a fast enough rate considering how long I had been applying the brake and the fact that I was only traveling at 25mph to begin with. I felt a pulsating that became increasingly pronounced and eventually the brake felt as though it was locked in place and unresponsive to my application of further pressure. The car was slowing down but it was not doing so at the normal rate. It would have likely required 2-3 times the normal distance to come to a complete stop. However, the brakes were too ineffective to have reasonably anticipated (by a long shot) and I rear ended the car in front of me that had come to nearly a complete stop at that point. At the time of impact my car had only slowed down by at the most 70%. Both my car and the car I rear ended were totaled. At no time prior to or upon impact did any warning light or indicator appear on the car. Nothing forewarned me that my brakes were at all compromised. The car was totaled and dmv records will show all of that info. This IS a serious problem that could be catastrophic if not investigated. Range rovers are extremely heavy vehicles which makes a breaking system failure even more dangerous than it already IS. Land rover has denied any defects or other manufacturer faults. I was injured with permanent neck pain likely as a result of the airbags failure to deploy. And the passengers in the impacted vehicle sustained notable injuries as well.

Takata recall. this car IS kept in san bernardino county, california, where there are large fluctuations of temperature and periods of high humidity in both summer and winter. the car IS ten years old. The deadline for receipt of new, non-defective airbag keeps getting pushed back. the latest IS "maybe this year" (per range rover representative kathleen vaccarro, 201 818 8080). when pressed, vaccarro concedes that what it boils down to IS that range rover has made the judgment that it IS ok for its customers to be driving a vehicle with a defective airbag for an indefinite period of time. when pressed, she concedes (as anyone has to concede) that no-one knows the point at which the inflator will have degraded and will explode. if I wanted to go skydiving and trust that the parachute usually opens, then that IS my decision. what range rover IS doing IS making that decision for me, against my will. what IS nhtsa doing about this? This appears to be about money. however, "money" IS not in your name. "safety" IS in your name. so where IS the safety?

Throttle will stay open (and seemingly open a bit more) for approximately 1/2 - 3/4 of a second after foot removed from accelerator pedal. particularly troublesome at very slow speeds, parallel parking, etc. When "coasting" or simple idling IS expected, but vehicle seems to continue as if accelerator IS lightly pressed. *tr
