2017 LAND ROVER RANGE ROVER SPORT Complaints

When ever playing music through loud or soft volumes I can hear a static sound coming from all speakers. The static like noise can be heard more your phone is connected through usb through apple/android car play on both usb connector ports. when using just bluetooth its not as noticeable but can sometimes still hear it. When using just the radio am/fm setting its not as present but you will get a little static noise. Note my RRS has the 825 watt meridian sound system so when adjusting the bass, treble or sub the static can still be present even at different volumes. Note the cables to the usb have been changed and are new when trying to see if its the phone cable or not but still the noise is present. I am just wondering if it may entail to a software update that is needed on the vehicle.

While I am in intersections driving, the car completely shuts off and I have to start the car back up for it to actually drive. It completely turns off while you’re driving. I have had several electrical issues with the car that have also been repaired. I’ve brought the car into the dealer service center over seven times and they have not been able to reproduce the issue of shutting off. I have installed a dash cam to record when it happens randomly. I reported to Land Rover corporate and they have not done anything over 8 months with this issue. I have two daughters and I’m concerned about getting into an accident with this car shutting off randomly. This has been occurring since I purchased the car in October 2020. Please help.

Fuel gauge indicated no fuel even though tank was just filled. Vehicle went into limp mode then would only start for a minute. Exact same symptoms as current recall for same model year but ours is outside of VIN range for that recall. Vehicle only has 35k miles and had fuel pump replaced which has seemed to fix the problem although fuel gauge won’t read full ever.

WHILE DRIVING ON A CITY STREET THE CAR JUST STOPS. I WOULD HAVE A FULL TANK OF GAS AND THE GAGE READS EMPTY. IN ADDITION ALL LIGHTS ON THE DASH BOARD GO ON. THE CAR HAD TO BE FLAT BEDDED MANY TIMES.
