Example complaints
Fuel system: “Vehicle was leaking fuel. I could always smell gas but could see nothing dripping. Was driving down the freeway when the vehicle just died. The gas monitor said I had 50 miles to go before needing fuel. I got it towed in and was told the fuel pump was leaking. This was dangerous because I had no warning and was in heavy traffic of 70mph when it just died on a bridge. They tow cost me almost $300 to get it to shop. …”
NHTSA complaint #11220260, filed 2019-06, 135,000 milesEngine: “Recall caused full engine failure which caused 75mph to abrupt stop on Highway. Violently shaking and leaked gas inside vehicle. I was confused because I had no collision and liberty mutual denied my claims, but I was hurt from a recall - dealer frequently recorded as fixed during a scam that caused me to lose my full savings and be stuck with a unfixed covered car. …”
NHTSA complaint #11758742, filed 2026-08Brakes: “I have had repeated failures driving multiple LR4 and a range rover sport (I own both). If while driving the vehicle you lightly rest your foot on the brake pedal (for instance in driving in close quarters) the car will illuminate multiple wanring indicators including engine failure, brake failure, gearbox failure, parking brake failure, ABS failure, traction control failure, stability control unavailable and cruise control unavailable. Generally when these condition occur these system will default to reduced functionality modes. …”
NHTSA complaint #10393133, filed 2011-03, 1,250 milesTransmission and drivetrain: “While driving on the freeway, the transmission dropped out of gear and engine revved past 7k RPM and the car decelerated. Transmission fault was displayed and service engine light came on. Had to coast the car across four busy lanes of traffic with non responsive gas petal to the shoulder. After the car was shut down and restarted, all error/fault massages went away and the car drove fine. This could have resulted in a serious incident.”
