A complete computer failure is VERY RARE but suspension faults are VERY COMMON. Just ask anyone who has owned an LR3. Most are cleared by a simple restart, but then some are not. My concern was not with a computer failure, but with a suspension failure or a perceived failure by the CPU that then shuts down the air system and you are now stuck riding the bump stops over terrain that is not accommodating.
Another vulnerability in the LR3 is to Mud/Water in the electrical components. One owner I know went through a mud pit and immediately got a dash full of warning and failure lights. He limped home, but when it dried out a week later all was fine. Sure, he probably shouldn't have driven through the pit, but then if you are on a trail and it rains and mud is the only way out, you might be in a bad situation.
The LR3 has a place in the off road community for sure, but one must be careful in choosing a vehicle for expedition use and the LR3 would be low on my list.
