Help needed with land rover uk

Hello everyone

Thank you in advance for everyone's help! Really appreciate your time!
I bought a 2016 4.4 sdv8 AB from a north London main dealer last August 2019 and it came with a 2 year warranty.
The car developed an issue with the drivers massage function and a message saying I needed an oil service asap january 20202 and the car was booked in with harwoods lr Edenbridge where they looked after my sport for the last 6 years.
They did the oil service free of charge and are booking in the car for a warranty repair on the seat. Now the surprise I have been given a £5000 pound estimate for repair to the car which harwoods say isn't covered by the lr warranty, to do with the suspension. I am not sure what is needed, as the car was in on the 16.3.20 and due to lockdown its taken till today to get the information that the car needs all this work. Now I can't beliece that a lr approved car which was bought in Aug 19 can need 5000 pounds worth of repairs at my cost within 7 months and about 7000 miles only! Please advise if I have any recourse here and any advice would be much appreciated, I have attached the estimate from harwoods, I dont quite understand what the car needs, suspension work i believe. I still can't believe it .....

Can you get a statement from CarPlan why its not covered?

Then try approaching the selling dealer and explain the situation, if you're not getting anywhere with them, then approach LR CS.

£5k does sound excessive in the first 6-7 months of ownership.
