System Shutdown

On driving a substantial distance, twice we have experienced a complete shutdown of the electronic system.  Firstly, various lights would appear on the dash indicating strange faults and the car would lose power and appear to be in an off-road setting and suspension would lower, the display reads "HBC Fault", chugging along as if it were in an off-road setting.  To clear the problem involved stopping the car, and having to wait around half an hour before it would clear itself and we could resume our journey. This fault has occurred on numerous occasions.

Oh my! Should of bought a Jeep!

2009 Land Rover Discovery

My Discovery is 12 months old, has been into the garage three times for the same fault which is that at times it just stops. Whether on the motorway, at a road junction wherever. The garage will not guarantee its safety and Land Rover say they will not refund the money or replace it as it is over 12 months old. The car is dangerous and I am now really worried about driving it and having an accident. I have had previous Discos without a problem and I did like the car but now I fear for my life and that of my family. I can just imagine coming to a complete stop on the motorway with a 40' vehicle raining down on me. Why can't car manufacturers stand up and be counted they obviously know of these faults but aren't prepared to do anything about them.
