It has been tested in court unsuccessfully on more than one attempt.
Do we know why? Consumer law is not normally open to interpretation. Pretty clear.

It is clearly stated in the terms and conditions that the insurer will not pay on any issue that is deemed to be an inherent fault in the vehicle and sadly this has been shown to be the case in court. Its nothing to do with consumer law as the vehicle has run out of the manufacturers warranty period any extended warranty is supplied by a third party provider that uses JLR branding under licence. The same provider also supplies extended third party warranties that are brand linked to the majority of car manufacturers in the UK. JLR do offer some recourse via 'goodwill' however this is liked to your brand loyalty ( ie servicing) and frankly the likelihood you will buy another JLR product.

Ah sorry - I meant regarding JLR selling a product with a known fault to its customers and saying nothing
