Example complaints

“There's a water-proofing defect with the Discovery Land Rover (at least 2017-2019). I previously purchased new a 2017 Discovery new, and water entered from the roof and windshield and the dealer replaced it with a 2019. Same issue is occurring - with rain water entering from windshield and roof and flooding interior of car. Appears to be a defect in manufacturing that causes safety issues as water is literally dripping on the driver and front interior while I drive the car.”

NHTSA complaint #11322771, filed 2020-04, 5,000 miles

“The contact owns a 2019 Land Rover Discovery. The contact stated that the vehicle was taken to the dealer for routine maintenance. During an inspection, the technicians discovered that the fuel tank cover protectors were rusted. The contact was concerned that the driveshaft could strike the exposed fuel tank, causing a fuel leak. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The dealer confirmed the failure; however, the vehicle was not repaired due to warranty issues. The failure mileage was 80,000.”

NHTSA complaint #11772720, filed 2026-10, 80,000 miles

“On two separate occasions, the rear door latch failed on this vehicle, resulting in the door opening unexpectedly while in motion. First incident, Left Rear Door, occurred Sept 17, 2020. The second incident, Right Rear door, happened May 15, 2021. Had anyone been sitting in the rear seats at that time, they would have been at risk of falling out of the vehicle. Both incidents were confirmed and repaired by the dealer. (see attached invoices) In both cases, the door stayed closed just enough such that the open door warning on the dash did not illuminate.”
