My vehicle overheated due to a cracked rear engine coolant pipe. The vehicle is out of warranty and has been inoperable since August 2025 due to repair cost.

The car vibrates a lot. I bought this car 2 months ago and it's my first Land Rover. I loved the car. I want to use it to cross the United States and then take it to Europe. This year I want to do something different because I lost a son at the beginning of the year. I really need the car. I want to cross all of the United States by car. I need the car to be safe.

The fuel tank strap, also known as a fuel tank heat shield, protects the gas tank from debris during driving and off-road use. The original part number is WFN500021 which replaces WFI500053. Due to the metal chosen to make this shield, and the materials of other parts around it, it suffers from galvanic corrosion. As the tank shield starts to rust, that causes rust in other areas to start as well. The shield on my vehicle has probably about 30-40% of its original life left, and I do fear it falling out at some point and possibly the fuel tank going with it as the mounting points for the fuel tank may be corroded along with the tank strap.

SAFETY RECALL N623: Gasoline Fuel Tank Flange Assembly Cracking WHY is this recall not showing when I enter my VIN number here? Vehicle was towed back to house November 24th, 2021 after discovering it was leaking gas all over the Walmart parking lot. I have been smelling gas inside the vehicle and on the outside passenger side of the vehicle for almost 2 months! I saw no visible evidence to prompt concern until November 24th. When I called AAA to have the car towed they asked me to call 911 to clear the car from “risk of explosion” before it could be towed. I have been trying to call the Land Rover dealership to get my car in for this repair and they can’t get me in until the end of January!?! How is this acceptable!? I’ve been driving this car around like this for two months.. possibly longer.. with my TODDLER! And I’m being told by AAA, my mobile mechanic and this ‘Safety Recall Letter’ that the car is at risk of explosion!? I have the “Important Safety Recall” letter in my hands right now that outlines my exact issue and it literally says.. “there could be liquid fuel underneath the vehicle, which in the presence of an ignition source could lead to a fire.” This is unacceptable! I don’t have a vehicle now. I can’t work. Not working isn’t an option. Not having a reliable and safe vehicle I can count on isn’t an option. I can’t get my car in for the necessary repairs in a timely manner. I’m just stuck. There is no ideal time for this issue to arise but right before Christmas!? I can’t even think of the appropriate words to communicate the level of havoc and life f**kery this is causing. I’m literally here reporting this issue because of the letter I received and now I’m infuriated this recall isn’t even listed on y’all’s website. Who sends out an “Important Safety Recall” letter that casually mentions the car could catch on fire and then just doesn’t put the recall into full effect!? What’s my next step? Attorney. What’s y’all’s?

My 2011 Range Rover Sport HSE experienced a severe fuse box failure. Fuses F15, F18, and F20 melted, causing wiring damage and disabling multiple systems. This failure appears to be due to a design or manufacturing defect and poses a serious fire hazard, putting the vehicle and occupants at risk. Upon research, it appears that almost every Range Rover Sport (LR3/320) from 2010–2013 suffers from this issue, indicating a widespread, systemic problem rather than an isolated incident. Request: I formally request that Land Rover and/or NHTSA investigate this safety defect and consider issuing a recall for all affected vehicles immediately. I can provide photographic evidence of the damaged fuse box if needed.

WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY AT SPEED, THE VEHICLE SUFFERED A COMPLETE POWER FAILURE. THE HEADLIGHTS TURNED OFF, THE ENGINE SHUT DOWN, THE DASHBOARD WENT DARK, AND THE POWER STEERING FAILED CAUSING ME TO SWERVE PARTIALLY OUT OF MY LANE (I WAS ON A CURVE). THE POWER THEN CAME BACK ON AND THE VEHICLE RESUMED FUNCTIONING NORMALLY. *TR

WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE STRAIGHT ON A 2 LANE ROAD, SUDDENLY HAD TO SWERVE LEFT TO AVOID A CAR COMING OUT OF A PARKING LOT WITHOUT LOOKING - AND WITHOUT ANY WARNING THE POWER STEERING TOTALLY FAILED - AND I COULD NOT PULL THE HEAVY TRUCK BACK INTO THE LANE - AND ALMOST HAD A HEAD ON COLLISION!! MORE DISTURBING IS THE FACT THAT UPON INSPECTION, LAND ROVER AND THE LOCAL DEALER, LAND ROVER MAIN LINE IN PA, ADMITTED THIS HAPPENED TO ANOTHER CUSTOMER - BUT HAVE NO IDEA WHY THIS HAPPENED AND CAN NOT ASSURE THAT IT IS REPAIRED!!! THIS IS A DANGEROUS ISSUE! THERE MAY BE OTHER UNSUSPECTING DRIVERS ON THE ROAD IN 2011 RANGE ROVERS WHO MAY HAVE A HEAD ON COLLISION IF THIS HAPPENS TO THEM BECAUSE THE WHEEL IS VERY, VERY HEAVY TO TURN WITHOUT THE POWER ASSIST STEERING - AND - WHEN NOT EXPECTING THAT SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER ASSIST - THE RECIPE FOR DANGER IS HEIGHTENED! *TR
