    Are there any known problems with the 2021 LDV D90

    LDV LDV Advice LDV D90 LDV D90 Advice LDV D90 2021

    So far I've had to replace the alternator, battery and now the front differential on my 2021 LDV D90. All have been under warranty, but it's a bit alarming when the car is less than three years old, and I've only had it for 11 months myself. My partner has a T60 which is only six months younger and hasn't missed a beat. Are these known issues for this model? Are there any other known issues I should be keeping an eye out for? The car hasn't even been off-road yet.

    It's less common than it once was, but still not unknown for a particular car to be more problematic than the ones that came off the production line either side of it. Presumably, you've just been unlucky and got lumped with the car that had dud components from the start. Hopefully, though, replacing those parts will be a permanent fix.

    LDV vehicles are definitely built to a price, and overall quality, materials and fit and finish are not as good as some better-known brands. But, like any of the Chinese manufacturers, LDV's quality is on the up and the later the build-date, the better. Perhaps that's why your partner's newer LDV has been more reliable.

    The best advice is to keep a very close eye on the vehicle and make a note of anything that seems amiss. Then, take these potential faults up with the dealership you use as a way of alerting them to any pre-existing conditions. That way, even once the five-year,/130,000km warranty has expired, those faults will still be fixed under the LDV warranty terms and conditions as they occurred while the warranty was still current.
