2013 LAND ROVER RANGE ROVER Complaints

THE FUEL FLANGE AT THE TOP OF MY FUEL TANK CRACKED AND WAS LEAKING GAS FUMES. THE DEALER STATED THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM THAT THEY ARE SEEING. IF I PARKED NEXT TO A FLAME SOURCE (WATER HEATER, FURNACE, ETC) THIS COULD BE A POTENTIAL SAFETY PROBLEM ALONG WITH THE ENVIRONMENTAL PROBLEM OF THE FUMES ESCAPING INTO THE ATMOSPHERE.

FRONT PASSENGER DOOR DOES NOT UNLOCK UNLESS OPENED FROM THE INSIDE; OR FRONT PASSENGER DOOR DOES NOT LOCK. BOTH ISSUES HAVE BEEN ONGOING AND HAS BEEN "FIXED" BY LAND ROVER 3 TIMES. THERE HAVE BEEN OTHER ELECTRICAL FAILURES INCLUDING THE AUTOMATIC LIFTGATE NOT WORKING IN THE PAST.

THE FRONT WINDSHIELD IS LOOSE AND LEAKS EXTREME TOOK IT TO A WINDSHIELD PROFESSIONAL AND SAID IT WAS A MANUFACTURER DEFECT BECAUSE THEY HAD MANY CLIENT WITH SAME PROBLEM. TOOK IT TO DEALER AND ALSO SAID CLIENTS WITH SAME PROBLEM. SADLY WHEN I CONTACTED CORPORATE THEY SAID THEY COULDN'T HELP. STANDING. JUST BOUGHT CAR FROM INDIVIDUAL. FOTO SHOWS PLASTIC BAG I HAD TO PUT FOR PROTECTION. WET ALL DASHBOARD STEERING AND LEATHER SEAT. *TR

PASSENGER SIDE SRS WARNING LIGHT. PASSENGER SEAT MODULE AND OCCUPANT SEAT SENSOR MODULE FAULT/ FAILED. ISSUE OCCURRED AND WAS CONSISTENT BOTH WHEN CAR WAS IN MOTION AND WHEN STATIONARY.

WAS IN SUPERMARKET PARKING LOT, ABOUT TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND CAR ACCELARATED WITH FULL FORCE ON ITS OWN ONTO A FENCE IN FRONT OF PARKING SPACE.

WHILE DRIVING MY CAR ON A ROAD AND ATTEMPTING TO MERGE ONTO A HIGHWAY (I10) IT LOST THE ABILITY TO ACCELERATE. THE VEHICLE WOULD THEN NOT SHIFT ABOVE 3RD GEAR (AUTOMATIC). WHEN I PLACED IT MANUALLY INTO HIGHER GEARS IT TRIED TO AUTOMATICALLY DOWNSHIFT. I WAS UNABLE TO ACCELERATE TO MERGE ONTO THE HIGHWAY. I HAD TO PLACE ON MY FOUR WAYS AND MAKE AN EMERGENCY STOP TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT CAUSING A VERY UNSAFE DRIVING SITUATION. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THAT THE TURBO COMPONENT HAD FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. AFTER IT WAS REPLACED I ASKED WHAT HAD CAUSED THE FAILURE AND THEY SAID THAT NOTHING I DID CAUSED IT. IT IS APPARENTLY A COMMON ISSUE FOR THE TURBO COMPONENT TO FAIL IN THE 2012-2014 MODELS. I WAS NOT WARNED ABOUT THIS SAFETY ISSUE AND THEY SAID IT IS CAUSED BY A KNOWN MECHANICAL ISSUE. THEY ALSO SAID THE REPLACED THE TURBO COMPONENT WITH AN ALTERNATE PART NUMBER BECAUSE THE ONE ORIGINALLY IN MY VEHICLE FAILS SO OFTEN THEY NO LONGER USE IT. THIS OCCURS OFTEN ENOUGH THEY ALREADY HAD THE PART IN STOCK. I THINK THEY SHOULD BE FORCED TO RECALL THESE FAULTY TURBO PARTS. I HAVE THE SERVICE RECORD IF NEEDED.

WHILE DRIVING ON A CITY STREET MY ENTIRE STEERING WHEEL CAME LOOSE AND DETACHED FROM THE VEHICLE.

76K MILES AND TURBO CHARGER NEEDS REPLACED. $3,454.00. RIDICULOUS. NO TEPAIR SHOULD BE THIS MUCH. MANY ONLINE COMPLAINTS AT SIMILAR MILES. FOR A 4 CYLINDER ENGINE THIS IS HORRIBLE! NOTICED SLOW ACCELERATION WHEN ATTEMPTING TO GO UP HILLS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 LAND ROVER RANGE ROVER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BRAKE LIGHTS ILLUMINATED ON THE VEHICLE WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS NOT DEPRESSED. THE VEHICLE WAS INCLUDED IN AN UNKNOWN RECALL, BUT THE REMEDY WAS NOT AVAILABLE. JAGUAR DALLAS (11400 N CENTRAL EXPY, DALLAS, TX 75243, 214-691-42944) WAS CONTACTED AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE ONLY RECALL WAS FOR THE DOOR LATCH. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 69,000.

SOUNDS LIKE THEY ARE VERY AWARE OR LTB00795NAS1. A TECHNICAL BULLETIN INVOLVING THE "ACTIVE ON DEMAND COUPLING OIL PUMP" THAT JUST HAPPENS TO MESS UP ON SPECIFIC CARS FROM A SPECIFIC PLANT AT WITH NO FAULT TO THE DRIVER, YET THIS IS NOT A RECALL?? I CALLED LR USA AND THE REPRESENTATIVE SAID IT DID NOT MEET THE STANDARDS OF A RECALL, WHATEVER THAT MEANS.
