2014 LAND ROVER RANGE ROVER Complaints

Front wheel knuckle failure. I received an email last year on a recall for specific VINs for this failure and my VIN does not apply within the specific years of 2014-2016. I have a 2014 L405 Land Rover and am very concerned of this failure. I would like this complaint filed and Land Rover to replace these knuckles before someone dies or is seriously injured.

I was having suspension problems when I purchased the vehicle. Took into land Rover proformed a suspension evaluation they made recommendations on what should be fixed I proformed the repairs but when I accelerated a hard knocking on the left side of the vehicle still happened I found a video on YouTube about the staring knuckles failing on my 2014 and decided to check to see if mine had the problem I cleaned both staring knuckles and found the beginning of fracture cracks on both. I called land Rover they said there were no recalls for my vehicle and I called corporate they said I need to bring it in for an inspection and there were no recalls for my vehicle. I will bring it in for inspection. But wanted to make NHTsa aware it's happening to my vehicle as well.

Land Rover has been made aware through several complaints that there is a widespread issue with their vehicles that requires recall. Thousands of customers have reported issues in their vehicles with cylinder 4 cracked pistons resulting in engine failure. Land Rover refuses to address the issue in their vehicles causing this malfunction and costly vehicle repair. Land Rover needs to issue a recall to address and rectify this issue in their vehicles as this issue results in the vehicle losing speed and coming to a complete halt with no warning from the vehicle. The vehicle does not display any warnings even if dangerously low on oil - no warning sign will display. This could result in death of multiple people and cause crashes. It is highly dangerous and needs to be addressed by Land Rover with urgency.

It is becoming very apparent that the front, Left and Right Steering Knuckle on these cars are failing due to cracks forming and in some instances the wheel breaking free from the car. This is a death trap for the cars affected and Range Rover needs to step up in the U.S., like they did in the UK and recall these and have them replaced. Thank you

I have researched my 2014 Range Rover Evoque and have come upon 2 recalls. First one is recal no. 16V614000. This is where the vehicle unexpectedly shifts to neutral as I am driving. I had a few instances with this as I was driving and car shifting to neutral and gearbox gets stuck...resulting in getting stuck in the middle of the road. The second recall is recall no. 14V155000 regarding the suspension. The damaged bolts may fail, allowing the link arm to separate from the vehicle, resulting in a loss of control and increasing the risk of a crash. I have already contacted Land Rover customer service and they told me my VIN number is not covered under the recall even though it is clearly affected by the recalls. The car is not safe to drive. I am hoping you could add my vehicle to the recall list to get this repaired as soon as possible.

Component/System Failure: The issue pertains to a timing chain failure malfunction, which has led to the disablement of the vehicle while driving. Yes, the affected component is available for inspection upon request. Based on additional information received this timing chain failure issue was raised and settled in a Class action lawsuit that Jaguar agreed to pay for Lessees of these models that all had a timing chain failure issue but the issues were not resolved with this vehicle. Safety Concerns: The failure occurred while driving on Highway [XXX], and the potential consequences could have been catastrophic. The vehicle's abrupt disablement in the middle of rush hour traffic in Washington D.C. posed an imminent risk of a near-fatal accident. A highway patrol officer had to intervene to redirect traffic and prevent other vehicles from crashing into the lane. This incident not only endangered the driver but also jeopardized the safety of countless other drivers on the road. It's crucial to highlight that such a failure could have been avoided with proper maintenance and early detection of the timing chain issue. The malfunction of the timing chain indeed poses risks, not only to your safety but potentially to others on the road as well. When crucial components fail unexpectedly, it can lead to hazardous situations such as sudden loss of power or control, increasing the likelihood of accidents.

You can lock the doors inside the vehicle or with the remote but the doors do not lock.

The headlight and tail light assemblies get water and moisture inside the lenses whenever it rains. This has cause one of my headlights to short out. As a result, the DRL/Turn signal on the left side headlight has stopped working. As for the rear tail light, whenever there is water inside, the tail light will flicker on/off while driving. There is always condensation inside all of the lights long after the rain has stopped and water has dried. Also in addition to the lights, the rear view camera system does not function properly when it rains or after a car wash. It will intermittently display a distorted image and sometimes no image at all, just a screen of green lines.
