  Land rover's range rover sport supercharged was designed with a hydraulic suspsension system that breaks down after or around just 1000 miles. after a customer has purchased a new sport from land rover, land rover IS stiffing all of it's customers with these cars and calling the knocking and clunking "normal". this IS totally and utterly offensive, I have already lemon lawed my first 2006 sport. out of good will and appreciation for the brand, I purchased a 2007 sport supercharged the very same day I turned in my 2006 in hopes that they had corrected the issue and/or my issue with my 2006 was just a fluke. I was wrong, land rover has given my attorney and I the cold shoulder, they have specifically told my local repair center not to repair my car!!! I am disgusted by this companies business and customer relations practices and am looking into filing a joint class action lawsuit against land rover. the parts of the car that are defective are called the dynamic response system. my 2007 sport had it's entire suspension system replaced at just 3 weeks after ownership at 1000 miles yet it still continues to give me trouble. I have not had the car for 13 months and land rover has made to effort to do right by one of their young and loyal customers. I am filing this complaint with the nhtsa because this car does not sound or feel safe to drive. I have already been in a highway speed accident when I was much younger and do not want to risk ever having to go through that again. I have emailed land rover clips of my car making the lound clunking noise, I have also demonstrated the clunking to a land rover representative. land rover has decided that a recall would cost them too much money and are stiffing their customers who shell out close to $100K for this car. *cn
