Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Since past few months I am experiencing frequent stalling in my car. When car is at the traffic light and sometimes during turning at the corner, it just stops responding to peddle and I have to restart the engine and select gear again to move it. During the recent snowstorms, it once staled and started sliding backwards as engine stalled and transmission stopped working on traction. I had to quickly restart the engine and regain the control to get away with this situation. I think this situation is very dangerous on the road and could lead to fatal accident some day. …”
NHTSA complaint #11407929, filed 2021-04, 18,000 miles“A fire started under the hood roughly 15 minutes after we drove it and parked it. Smoke could be seen 1st, then the fire. Not sure what starter the fire. The vehicle was parked 3 ft from my house, which could’ve caught my house on fire, luckily it wasn’t parked in my garage. The incident has not been yet reproduced or confirmed by an independent service center, manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others. There not any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure”
NHTSA complaint #11724423, filed 2026-03“On 4/26/2026 My vehicle experienced hybrid system failure, electrical failure, charging system failure, loss of drive power, electrical shutdown, and loss of exterior lighting at a busy intersection, while at a red light. My vehicle had to be towed and was confirmed by the Range Rover dealership as a DC-DC converter failure. My 73 yr old mother and I had to get out and direct traffic for over two hours, to keep my vehicle from getting hit or us being seriously injured, until a wrecker arrived. I had previously took my vehicle to two dealerships, when I had a light to come on. …”
NHTSA complaint #11741193, filed 2026-06“My 2019-2020 Evoque is stalling when coming to a stop? This seems to happen at completely random intervals regardless of whether the auto start/stop is on or off. When the car stalls Select Gear to Manuever is displayed for about one second on the dash and the D flashes with a beeping tone. This has happened to over 20 times in less than 1000 miles! The ignition must be turned off and the car restarted in order to move again. I have seen Land Rover Forums describing a very similar issue. I have taken the vehicle in twice for repairs with no improvement.”
