Depends how bad it is and VIN. Some models can be fixed by packing the latch with spacers, others might need a new headlining Sill protection - LED internal lights - LED reverse lights - boot liner - Dog Guard - Rock sliders

So an update on the saga...
So after the last time it went in and had the headlining replaced, the rear most blind still pinged open. So Marshalls asked LR technical team what to do.
Went in for a service this week and they told me they had a reply from LR and were going to add some spacers to the rear most blind and see how that worked out.
It seems to be OK, so far, I've driven 40 miles and it's not opened. This weekend I will drive to the game fair and across their parking areas so if its not fixed, that should trigger it.
All being well, I now get to see what the LR good will gesture is for having had randomly opening blinds for 6 out 9 months of ownership of a new car.

So a week later and it appears that the spacers on the rear blind, coupled with the new headlining have finally resolved it.
As I've stated before - the dealership have always been good and helpful and the LR customer team have been helpful as well - they've always called when promised and kept me updated. There's been little either of them could do to speed up headlining delivery - it's made to order. There's little they could do to stop the first one being damaged in transit.
As a gesture of goodwill though, as the car has been in and out 3 or 4 times and spent several weeks having the headlining stripped and replaced (they stripped it once and got the new one out only to discover it was damaged) along with the long lead times on the headlining, they are supplying and fitting a rear ladder Sill protection - LED internal lights - LED reverse lights - boot liner - Dog Guard - Rock sliders
