2018 Land Rover Range Rover Sport Electrical system Problems

The issues happen while driving. I took it back to my dealer several times and even the last time after service the car came back with an engine warning sign. …”

“Immediately after purchasing noted episodes of sudden loss of acceleration from a stop with vehicle warning lights. Repeated dealer visits failed to disclose source of issue.

Was only able to obtain speed of 48 MPH with fully depressed accelerator. Second issue is episodes of complete and total failure of the cruise control to include total loss of radar proximity warning system while on the interstate. …”

A brief “coolant level low” warning flashed on the dashboard for less than a minute, then promptly went away and never flashed or displayed again. Minutes later, the car started shaking, forcing us to pull over onto the side of the Massachusetts Turnpike. The engine then immediately began smoking.
