The original Alternator met its demise as I coasted into the driveway. Replaced it with a OEM Denso Alt and the car ran but a charging system fault persisted. Tried another Denso alt to the same result. Then tried a Genuine Land Rover Alt, which is made by Denso (only visible difference is a Land Rover sticker and that it costs another $600...) and it works as expected. NOTE: Alternator failure was likely due to all the MUD and DEBRIS that had made its way into the inner bits. Try to wash that crud out after a trip.

90060 mi rear latch wires for the mechanism broke. 
Car delivered without the Voice Recognition System. Software updated to re-activate this feature. The back-up camera showed "blue screen" once. They checked connections and said everything was fine. Has not happened since, but I only have 200 miles on my car so far.
