Service left me broken down 150m from dealer

My email to Land Rover South Africa - Never Responded<br> <br> In March I had my first poor experience when booking my car in for service at Bedfordview Land Rover. Within 30min from dropping my Land Rover off for a service I then had a forceful sales person call me to offer me a brand new defender. I found this highly irritating. I then got a quotation for an astronomical price to service my defender being told it's a large increment you won't need to service for another year or at 50,000km.<br> <br> Today, a noise from my gear box alerted me and on my way back to the service center in bedfordview I stalled in the middle of the road when the transmission failed to link into gear. Yet another astronomical quote has come in to replace what I can only decipher as a mechanical part, not a service part.<br> <br> I am emailing you because, this is a low low mileage vehicle with a full service industry. I have done everything by the book and the transmission has failed. It is clearly a defect based on my online research known as \the knock of death"within Land Rover forums. If this is not common the. Surely it requires investigation.<br> <br> Result: repair was actually only a fraction of the quote """
