Do all LR dealerships provide a loaner vehicle when doing warranty repairs?

[jwblue]

I can deal with not having my vehicle, but do all dealerships always provide a loaner?

This actually might be the deciding factor whether I buy an LR4.

Hey jwblue,

I think all Land Rover dealerships are different, but I would say all of them provide some sort of loaner vehicle during warranty repairs. I live close to several dealerships and the two that I deal with both provide loaner cars for both maintenance and warranty work. The difference is one dealer provides an Enterprise rental car during warranty work while the other provides a Land Rover loaner car. Both provide Land Rover loaners for maintenance work.

I would say almost all of the Land Rover dealerships provide a loaner of some sort. I just can't imagine them not? You can always call the dealership(s) of interest and make sure.

Just to clarify, I do mean gratis.

I don't even have to have a LR loaner. Just a vehicle to get me point a to to point b temporarily.

Hello jwblue,

Yes, the loaner cars (both the LR loaner and Enterprise rental cars) are given for FREE, no payment required. It is a free service of the dealership. I believe that almost every Land Rover dealership in the U.S. offers free loaner cars for warranty or service.

I hope that helps.

PS...

Where do you live? I live in Northern California and all of the Land Rover dealerships around me offer free loaner cars.

So far this year, I've had 5 1/2 weeks of free loaner. Very grateful for the loaner, but not so happy that I needed one.

I have to say regarding loaner cars that I have been rather embarrassed by my fellow local Land Rover owners. On multiple occasions I have witnessed people complaining loudly that their free loaner wasn't the same or better than the car they had in for service. It's outrageous to expect the dealership to provide a $100k loaner car to everyone who brings in their Range Rover for service. BTW, I've had two loaners in the last couple of months. Both were almost new. I had a new LR4 with about 500 miles on the clock for a month. I felt spoiled. I mean, it's a free loaner car. If it's clean, safe, and functional I'm satisfied.

Ah, then I would imagine all the area dealerships will have free loaner cars for both warranty work and maintenance. Keep us posted!

Yep, here in SE Michigan my dealer provides loaners. The only time I required a loaner was when they squeezed me in for an afternoon repair to my antenea. I was provided a Enterprise vehicle. I assumed they had no LR's available due to timing of my repair. Maybe it will always be Enterprise, I will check the next time i stop in.

I usually get an LR2 or an LR3.
