Your Land Rover Defender’s speedometer is failing flickering, showing the wrong speed, or completely dead. Sounds minor? Think again.
- Traffic fines? You could be unknowingly speeding.
- Failed RTA inspection? A broken speedometer won’t pass.
- Accidents? Misjudging speed is dangerous.
Fact: Many drivers don’t notice speedometer failures until they’re fined or fail an inspection.
Common causes? Faulty speed sensors, wiring issues, ECU failures, and Dubai’s heat make it worse. Don’t wait! Small issues grow into expensive repairs.
Imagine cruising down Sheikh Zayed Road, thinking you’re doing 100 km/h, but in reality, you’re speeding at 120 km/h. The speedometer says one thing, but reality says another. What happens next? A flash. A fine. Or worse a sudden brake from another driver who didn’t expect your speed.
The Real Risks of Ignoring Speedometer Issues
A malfunctioning Land Rover Defender speedometer is not just an inconvenience; it’s a major safety and legal hazard.
- Speeding fines & black points: Dubai’s speed cameras don’t care if your speedometer is lying.
- Risk of accidents: Driving too fast or too slow without realizing it puts you and others at risk.
- Failed RTA vehicle inspection: A broken speedometer can get your car flagged.
Fact: A faulty speedometer is one of the top reasons vehicles fail inspections in Dubai.
