Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“My automobile's battery dies (I have bought 2 new batteries) or runs out of charge when it gets too cold or when I do not drive it for 3 days or more. Sometimes, as I am driving it on a highway, it just cuts off, and I have to wait for at least 10 minutes and start it again. Sometimes it starts, sometimes it doesn't. Then I have to wait longer.”

NHTSA complaint #11281794, filed 2019-11, 85,389 miles

“With 25,000 miles the keys were not working, we went to the dealer that told us that the inside battery gets recharge while we drive, both keys were not getting any charge, the battery can not be replaced, you will have to buy a new key and get it programmed by the dealer at a cost of $500.00 each in miami, there is no way to open the key or to get a cheaper key.”

NHTSA complaint #10846327, filed 2016-03, 25,000 miles

“Rear started making grinding noise when accelerating and turning to the left or right. I took it to the dealership, they said that they did not hear the noise and I may need to wait until it gets worse, numerous online complaints of a faulty design for the differential - Land Rover told me that they have replaced 2 differentials in last couple of months and if that is what is wrong with my vehicle it could potentially lock up while I'm driving and could cause an accident. Will you please look into why Land Rover has not done a recall ? Thank you very much, laurie .....updated 10/19/15”

NHTSA complaint #10745465, filed 2015-07, 79,000 miles

“Humming noise when driving due to faulty differential. Only has 40,099 miles....also starts some days and other days may take up to 3 times before it will start without dying. Took to several shops that said they can't figure out problem and they called landrover only to be told, this is a common problem and no one solution has been found to fix it. This has been going on for 3 years and no one can fix.”
