Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“While driving on a city street the car just stops. I would have a full tank of gas and the gage reads empty. In addition all lights on the dash board go on. The car had to be flat bedded many times. I have no documentation because the car was once again flat bedded into service currently , and all paperwork is in the car.”
NHTSA complaint #11399510, filed 2021-03, 15,000 miles“Vehicle has several electrical problems. The board will go black screen while driving. I took it to the dealer 2 times for the same problem, and they told me that they will contact me with a software update. It never happened. I dont have time to take a car to the dealer every week. It is a new car. I leased it on sep. It would indicate malfunction engine light last time. The vehicle stopped in the middle of the road. I would start the engine and would not shift gear. I had to drive the vehicle mannually at 5 miles per hour to my house. The tow truck took my car 2 weeks ago to the dealer. …”
NHTSA complaint #11081378, filed 2018-03, 6,253 miles“I was informed by Hennessey Land Rover that there is a Y Alen pipe in the coolant system that will most likely fail around 50,000 to 60,000 miles. The Y piece is two pieces of pipe sandwiched together verses one solid piece. They are telling me that once the pipe fails all of the coolant will escape the engine block and will most likely seize the engine. They are not covering the cost to do the repair, around $4500.00, and I find this unacceptable because they build the coolant system with a piece they know is faulty.”
NHTSA complaint #11630092, filed 2024-12“While I am in intersections driving, the car completely shuts off and I have to start the car back up for it to actually drive. It completely turns off while you’re driving. I have had several electrical issues with the car that have also been repaired. I’ve brought the car into the dealer service center over seven times and they have not been able to reproduce the issue of shutting off. I have installed a dash cam to record when it happens randomly. I reported to Land Rover corporate and they have not done anything over 8 months with this issue. …”
