“On June 13, 2026 my 2023 Range Rover Velar (79,772 miles) suffered a sudden, complete engine failure at highway speed on HWY 70 in Durham, NC. No warning lights, oil pressure alerts, or dashboard notifications appeared before or during the failure. The vehicle had operated well since purchase with no prior issues of any kind. I was to cross the hwy onto the shoulder, this was a serious safety hazard for myself and other motorists. Land Rover is holding me liable for $32,000 in repairs, claiming a maintenance interval overage of ~36,000 miles caused the failure. …”
NHTSA complaint #11747769, filed 2026-07“First, this is a brand new purchase and vehicle had less than 6K miles before electrical issues with oxygen sensors (3), which all had to be immediately replaced.

At night this camera is rendered useless because your visibility is greatly impaired. It possesses a risk to not only the driver, but outside surroundings. My recommendation is to have these cameras replaced with better functionality and greater resolution for driving purposes. …”
