Recently began hearing a noise from the rear when driving. Thought it might be from the rear alignment causing the tire tread to make this sound. Driving faster the noise would get louder. Took to my mechanic for alignment and they said it was the rear differential going out. The bearings were making the loud noise. The vehicle only has 70,400 miles and is driven 10 miles a day and never off road. Looked for any recall notice I may have missed and then discovered this same situation from several others. I entered my VIN to check for any recalls and there are none! surely this vehicle was built to better specs. For this to fail so early in the life (mileage) of the vehicle is unacceptable and needs to be repaired by the manufacturer at N/C. I'm certain there are many more than those of us who have filed here; however, there are enough on this site to take the issue serious and address the matter with the manufacturer. This needs to be recognized for what is - a manufacturing defect and needs to be fixed by Land Rover!

Noticed a loud noise from rear of vehicle while driving. The greater the speed the louder the noise. Dealer inspection confirmed rear differential failing and needs replacement. Vehicle has 38,000 miles and still has the original factory tires. Rear differential failing before original tires are wore out! potential total failure of rear differential during operation a real safety concern.
