“I was driving and the vehicle car stalled it said gear box defect and switched from reverse to drive to neutral but would not move. I think this is dangerous since my car was already in drive and suddenly stalling could've caused an accident. Luckily there was no car behind me or it would have rear ended me.”

“I own a 2018 Discovery Sport. For the past month once every week the vehicle when put in park mode. Will turn completely off, will shut off automatically sometimes with the shift gear button closing back up. I just experienced this 3 days ago. I was stopped at a red light, I noticed my car screen turn off and the shift gear button control go back. So the vehicle turned off completely on me while I'm in the middle of the street driving. it's first time it happened without being in the park mode. …”

“1) Low Coolant warning started flashing. I had the coolant checked on two days by different people and it was full both times. Both times I was told its a sensor issue, the dealership service center should look into it and all components and replace as necessary. 2) Occasionally when putting the car in park it automatically shuts off and locks in gear. 3) Occasionally when yielding the car is sluggish or there is no power at all when taking off again. All three issues put my safety, those with me and on the road with me at risk. The earliest appointment with the dealer is 24 days out. …”
