TIRE FAILED, VEHICLE BECAME UNSTABLE AND ROLLED OVER GAS TANK INTEGRITY FAILED, GAS SPLILLED AND IGNITED. MY SEVEN YEAR OLD SON WAS BURNED TO DEATH, MY 2 YEAR OLD, MY WIFE AND MYSELF SENT TO HOSPITAL WITH THIRD DEGREE BURNS. LAND ROVER OFFICIALS AGREED TO A RECALL TO PREVENT THE PROBLEM IN THE FUTURE. RECALL WAS TO TAKE PLACE BY APRIL 2003. IT HAS NOT. I BELIEVE THEY ARE INTENTIONALLY DRAGGING THEIR FEET TO SAVE A FEW PENNIES AND ARE PUTTING OTHER LAND ROVER OWNERS AT RISK IN THE MEANTIME.*AK
