2019 Land Rover Range Rover Sport Problems

It was a car ahead of me in traffic with an unusual amount of dark smoke coming out of the tailpipe.

The contact owns a 2019 Land Rover Range Rover Sport. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the check engine and low coolant warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was pulled over to the shoulder of the road. Upon further inspection, the contact became aware of a coolant leak under the vehicle. The coolant reservoir was refilled, and there was white smoke coming from under the hood. A local independent mechanic arrived on scene and scanned the vehicle with an OBD2 scanner, but a diagnostic fault code was not provided. The vehicle was towed to the residence. The local dealer was contacted; however, the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. Upon further investigation, the contact associated the failure with NHTSA Campaign: 23V221000 (Engine and Engine Cooling); however, the VIN was not included. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 90,000.

The car experienced a complete electrical failure. Exactly like the recall D126 warns about. This engineering fix is taking too long. They should simply replace the DC/DC converter. I was stuck in the middle of the intersection and had to have my car towed, battery replaced. They are slow playing this problem to avoid having to pay for repairs.

The contact owns a 2019 Land Rover Range Rover Sport. The contact stated that while driving approximately 25 MPH, there was a message of a "Module Failure" displayed, and the master warning light was illuminated before the vehicle stalled. The vehicle failed to restart and was towed to the residence and then to a dealer, where it was diagnosed and determined that the DC converter needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired, but the check engine warning light illuminated approximately 20 minutes after restarting the vehicle. The vehicle was taken back to the same dealer, where it was diagnosed and determined that the battery control module needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact believed that the failure was associated with damages from the original failure. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and a complaint was filed. The failure mileage was approximately 88,000.

I had my oil changed and mechanic noted both my fuel tank belly pans were heavily corroded, which was odd for a garaged car with lower miles. They recommended reaching out to my dealership since this is a pressing issue that likely should include a recall or warranty. When I researched the issue, it's a known Range Rover Sport design issue, a 2019 should not have this much corrosion and it sounds like condensation pools. Also, the mechanic noted that this likely has been happening for a while. The RI Range Rover dealership inspected my car in August 2025, and didn't flag any issues.

RANGE ROVER HST WAS DRIVING IN FREEWAY WITH HIGH WINDS, AND THE LIFT GATE SPOILER JUST GOT DETACHED AND CAME OFF. WE BELIEVE THAT THE QUALITY OF THE PART USED WAS SUBPAR, AND IT SHOULD STAND THE HIGH WINDS, OTHERWISE, THERE MUST BE A WARNING THAT TELLS US THAT WE CAN'T DRIVE THE VEHICLE UNDER SUCH CIRCUMSTANCES.

Vehicle: 2019 Land Rover Range Rover Sport HSE While driving approximately 65-70 mph, a red battery/charging warning appeared instructing me to pull over immediately. Within approximately 3-5 minutes, the vehicle rapidly lost electrical power and became completely disabled while driving. EVERYTHING in my car started shutting down; no air, no lights, no steering. Steering and vehicle functions became inoperable and the vehicle required towing. The repair facility diagnosed a charging-system malfunction. Diagnostic notes stated the alternator was only producing approximately 11.2 volts and was not charging the battery. The repair facility also documented that the alternator was saturated in engine oil due to leaking valve covers and oil filter housing components. Repairs included replacement of the alternator, valve covers, oil filter housing, gaskets, coolant-related components, and associated labor under Land Rover repair procedures. I am submitting this complaint because the sudden loss of electrical power while driving at highway speed created a serious safety concern. The only thing that saved me for an accident is the high speed I was traveling coasted my car to the exit as an 18-wheeler truck was on the side and behind me.

I purchased a 2019 Range Rover Sport on July 24, 2026. The steering wheel had been off-center since purchase, so on August 31, 2026, I took the vehicle to an independent repair facility for an alignment. During inspection, the shop discovered that the rear subframe/crossmember was fractured at the left-rear suspension mounting area. The repair facility inspected underneath the vehicle and reported that they did not find corresponding impact damage or other evidence underneath that would indicate the fracture resulted from an accident, road impact, or other external hit. Based on their inspection, the technicians stated that they suspect the rear subframe failure may be related to a casting/manufacturing issue with the Land Rover aluminum subframe. This is a serious safety concern because the fracture is located at a rear suspension mounting point and has resulted in significant rear-wheel alignment abnormalities. I am reporting this to NHTSA so the failure can be documented and evaluated for similar incidents involving Range Rover Sport rear subframes.
