2022 LAND ROVER RANGE ROVER Complaints

I was driving when an "Electrical Fault Detected" warning came on. The car's instructions were to pull over as soon as possible, as the car's electrical system was draining the battery and the car could shut down within a few miles. We had the car towed to a repair shop where they ran tests on the car and replaced the battery. This did not fix the issue, and they came back a day later to find the brand new battery had drained. I then had it towed to another repair shop who replaced the alternator but that didn't solve the problem so they had it towed to the dealer. The dealer discovered that the DC converter in the car is bad, but said they have 5 cars in the shop with the exact same problem and the part is backordered without an ETA. I frequently drive late at night or early in the morning between a small town and a city for work. It's 100 miles each way, most of which is either in mountains with poor cell service or an interstate with a speed limit of 80 MpH. During this time of year, the temperatures in this area are often well below freezing. Had this issue happened on one of these drives, I could have very well been stranded with only a few minutes of warning with a high risk of hypothermia or even death. Had it happened on the interstate, the car would have lost complete power, including the steering, endangering not only my life, but my family and anyone else driving nearby. Land Rover has acknowledged in their notifications to dealer service departments that this is a known issue, but they have not issued a recall. I strongly believe this is a HUGE safety risk and that Land Rover should be held accountable for correcting this issue in all affected cars. They are endangering the lives of their customers and anyone who is on the road near Land Rover vehicles. NOTE: The doc provided in this submission is for an alternator change out that was done because of this electrical issue. The DC converter, which is where the true issue is, will be thousands as well.

The contact owns a 2022 Land Rover Range Rover. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V454000 (Air Bags); however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. The local dealer was contacted. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue. The contact had not experienced a failure.

As I was driving my vehicle to my residence, the car lost all power. The engine remained ‘on’, and the engine revved if I pushed the gas pedal, but there was zero acceleration. Fortunately I was able to maneuver/coast to a side street and stop my vehicle safely. I also felt fortunate that no car was following closely behind me which could have created a potential rear-end collision threat. I had very little warning that anything was wrong with the car. Approximately 20 minutes prior to the vehicle losing all power, I was driving to a store and parking in its parking lot. The vehicle warned me to not turn it off and the instrument panel showed a warning of ‘Electrical Fault Detected’. Because the car gave me the message to not turn it off, I decided to drive home. I had no idea the car would suddenly lose all power. I still do not know what ‘Elctrical Fault Detected’ means. When I tried to investigate this fault, I was surprised to see that Land Rover Range Rover Sport models from 2023 and 2024 were recalled for this problem. My vehicle is a 2022, and I did not receive a recall notice.

My vehicle is subject to an active AIRBAG SAFETY RECALL. The recall has been open for 112 days. The authorized Land Rover dealer has confirmed that the manufacturer does not have repair parts available and no repair completion date has been provided. Although the vehicle is technically drivable, it is unsafe due to the airbag defect. The airbag system may fail to deploy properly in a crash, increasing the risk of serious injury or death. The manufacturer has failed to remedy this safety defect within a reasonable time. I am concerned for my safety and the safety of others.

The contact owns a 2022 Land Rover Range Rover Sport. The contact stated that there was a coolant leak coming from the bottom plate while driving. There was coolant on the ground and in the garage. The low coolant warning light was illuminated. Additional coolant was added but leaked from the vehicle. The contact associated the failure with NHTSA Campaign Number: 23V221000 (Engine and Engine Cooling). The local dealer was contacted, but the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was contacted and referred the contact to the NHTSA Hotline for assistance. The failure mileage was approximately 76,000.

I received notice of safety recall N945 for the 2021–2025 Range Rover Evoque concerning a defect in the passenger airbag that could tear during deployment due to improper folding during assembly. This condition poses a serious safety risk because a torn airbag could fail to protect the occupant or release hot gases that could cause burns. Since the recall was issued several months ago, I have repeatedly contacted my authorized Land Rover dealership to schedule the repair. The dealership stated that they are unable to perform the recall because their internal system was “hacked” and they cannot access recall information or confirm when parts will be available. The manufacturer’s website still lists the recall as “incomplete – remedy not yet available.” It has now been over three months since I was notified of the recall, yet no remedy or scheduling information has been provided. This delay prevents me from having a critical safety repair completed and leaves my vehicle in an unsafe condition for any front passenger. I am filing this complaint because the manufacturer and dealership have not provided a remedy within a reasonable time frame, and I believe this represents a failure to complete a federally mandated safety recall in a timely manner

[XXX] [XXX] > [XXX] [XXX] >? I’m reaching out regarding an issue with Range?Rover?Las?Vegas. Our body shop represents a client whose vehicle requires an aluminum roof-panel replacement. The dealership has refused to sell the part, stating that because it is made of aluminum it may only be sold to JLR-certified facilities. Under Nevada law, registered repair facilities must have access to the necessary parts to perform vehicle repairs. For example, Nevada Revised Statutes 487.6883 states: “Whenever the repair work performed on a motor vehicle requires the replacement of any parts or accessories, the body shop or garage operator shall, at the request of the person authorizing the repairs … deliver to the person all parts and accessories replaced as a result of the work done.” Refusing to sell essential parts on the basis of certification restrictions appears inconsistent with the principles of consumer protection embodied in the statute.

Stopped at red light -- while waiting there came a very loud bang in back. I got out to inspect the rear and found the back window was fully crazed with two sizeable holes. I could find nothing that might explain the damage -- no projectiles in our outside the car -- no damage to the car other than a decimated rear window. By the time i got home the window was 80% broken in with the trunk area filled with shards. Another search (including with police) found nothing to explain the issue. Seems to be a manufacturing failure perhaps triggered by atmospheric events (temp or pressure changes)?

Oil leak and coolant leak took it to dealership while under warranty and they claimed no issues even though I saw the stains on my garage floor and had gear shift issues and black out info camera as well. Car under 70k miles and not end of warranty date but is the end of warranty mileage. Didn’t feel safe on the freeway, had power loss when it was time to restart the car and had smoke under the hood which may result in a fire in the engine compartment that could spread throughout the vehicle. This issue has led to power loss and difficulty controlling the vehicle, increasing the risk of accidents.

VIN# [XXX] I reported complaints during all of my routine oil changes that I had a coolant leak and it smelled like something was burning under my hood. I also told them that I had coolant on my garage floor and that my gears were stalling on my vehicle. I reported these issues when my car had under 10,000 miles and again at the 20,000 mile range. They stated they saw no issues or related recalls. I believe I was intentionally lied to because my car was under warranty at the time and they didn’t want to address the issues. I asked for them to check again prior to the expiration of the factory warranty they said they found nothing. I now have 69k miles and the issues that I’m experiencing surely didn’t happen over night/ Recently when my oil change light came on another light came on as well. I asked the dealership to look into it but they refused unless I paid $265. I went to another repair shop and the identified several issues (codes) PCM issues that would explain the issues that I reported over the years and none of the recalls were looked into. I purchased my car new during Covid and did not have a lot of face to face contact so I thought I purchased the extended warranty and now realize that I did not. I have reported these issues well before the end of the warranty period and believe that my car should be inspected immediately because I now fear for my safety and the safety of my family. I now have the following codes showing on my vehicle: Engine P00B0-49 June 7, 2025 11:16 AM P3498-86 P2170-11 P21A0-84 P21A1-84 P219F-84 U0080-87 P26CB-72 Turbocharger/Supercharger Boost Control B Module Performance Internal Electronic Failure Cylinder 1 Deactivation Performance Signal Invalid Exhaust Pressure Regulator Vent Solenoid Control - Circuit Low Circuit Short To Ground Cylinder 5 Air-Fuel Ratio Imbalance Signal Below Allowable Range Cylinder 6 Air-Fuel Ratio Imbalance Signal Below Allowable Range Cylinder 4 Air-Fuel Ratio Imbalance Signal Below Allowab INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATIO
