NHTSA complaint #11278289, filed 2019-11, 45 miles“Vehicle went from park to reverse by itself. Drivers door was wide open when my wife started vehicle and by it self it engaged in reverse and ran the door into a wall. The vehicle almost ran over my wife while she was attempting to exit the vehicle. Luckily she was able to jump back in and push the brake to stop the car. My son was behind the car loading items. Luckily he had moved seconds before.”
NHTSA complaint #11354879, filed 2020-09“Repeated issues of low cooling warning leading to engine overheating - severely resulting in tow in. Prior Land Rover dealer repair (prior to my purchase under certified warranty) was inadequate, causing coolant crossovers in front and rear to be cracked. Engine overheated steamed close to home, and vehicle towed in to LR dealer in area. Took two months to repair and at time, they thought engine was blown, but assured me repairs complete. Within 6 months, same warning light, took to LR Dallas dealer and said no issue. …”
NHTSA complaint #11618643, filed 2024-10“One or more rigid pipes in the coolant system failed when driving down the interstate. This resulted in almost immediate overheating and the computer curtailed engine power, apparently to prevent permanent engine damage. This was very dangerous, as I was in heavy 80+ mph traffic and lost power before I could pull off onto the shoulder. This is apparently a common problem, as the rigid pipes separate at the manufacturing seam. I was still under warranty, and Land Rover had us towed to the closest dealer which was 75 miles away. …”
NHTSA complaint #11454831, filed 2022-03“Driving and suddenly got engine overheating low coolant stop engine immediately warning message on instrument cluster. Pulled over and found coolant pouring out of front of engine. There was no warning or signs of prior coolant leakage before this incident. Happened suddenly without warning. Dealer found coolant pipe assembly part number LR100352 split at seam.”
