2015 Land Rover Range Rover Recalls & Complaints

Incident: April 8, 2026 · Filed: June 2, 2026

My 2015 Land Rover Range Rover underwent recall-related suspension repair work at Land Rover Orlando. Shortly after the repair, I began hearing an extremely loud noise from the front of the vehicle. The noise was severe enough that I informed the dealership I was afraid to drive the vehicle. I sent videos of the noise to the dealership. After reviewing the videos, dealership personnel advised that the issue was likely related to the air strut assembly or control arm bushings. The vehicle was later inspected by an independent mechanic. During that inspection, it was discovered that the front brake caliper bracket mounting bolts were not properly secured. On the driver's side, mounting bolts were reportedly missing. On the passenger side, mounting bolts were found extremely loose and could be removed by hand. The mechanic documented the condition with photographs and video evidence. The brake caliper bracket is a critical brake system component, and I believe this condition created a significant safety risk. Had the bracket separated or shifted while driving, it could have resulted in loss of braking performance, vehicle damage, loss of vehicle control, a crash, serious injury, or death. The abnormal noise began shortly after the recall repair. I reported the issue to the dealership at that time. The condition was later confirmed by an independent mechanic. The vehicle is currently undergoing repair. I am submitting this complaint because the condition involved a critical brake component and occurred following recall-related service work.

Known Recall Issue: The failure pattern aligns with known manufacturer defect categories involving: •Engine torque / internal engine failure conditions •Cooling system failure leading to overheating Shortly after I purchased my 2015 Range Rover, I started to have repeated and escalating safety-critical failures involving sudden loss of power, engine malfunction, and vehicle shutdown while driving at highway speeds. The vehicle has experienced multiple incidents of complete or partial power loss while in motion, resulting in near-collision events. Despite repeated repairs by authorized dealerships, the underlying defect has not been resolved. The failure pattern suggests a systemic mechanical defect involving engine performance and cooling system integrity rather than isolated maintenance issues. The primary safety concern is sudden loss of propulsion while driving at highway speeds, which has occurred on more than one occasion. These incidents present a significant risk of: •Rear-end collisions •Loss of vehicle control •Serious injury or fatality TECHNICAL FAILURE PATTERN Observed progression of failure: •Oil leakage / burning smell •Internal engine degradation symptoms •Cooling system failure and overheating •Electrical instability •Final engine shutdown / seizure events This suggests a systemic mechanical defect affecting engine integrity and thermal management systems. REQUEST FOR INVESTIGATION I respectfully request NHTSA to: 1.Investigate potential safety defects in this vehicle and model year 2.Evaluate whether similar failures are occurring in other vehicles 3.Assess adequacy of existing recall coverage 4.Review risk associated with sudden engine shutdown while driving 5.Determine whether recall expansion or additional safety action is warranted

The contact owns a 2015 Land Rover Range Rover. The contact stated that upon entering the driveway at a slow speed, the contact believed that the vehicle had hydroplaned. The vehicle was shifted into park(P) before reversing and then parked in the garage. Upon inspection of the vehicle, the contact noticed that the front passenger's side tire had turned inward while the other tires were facing forward. Due to the failure, the vehicle was towed to the dealer to be diagnosed. The contact was informed that the front passenger’s side had a cracked inner and outer tie rod. The contact was then notified of NHTSA Campaign Number: 24V840000 (Steering); however, the parts to do the recall repair were not available. The dealer replaced the tie rod spindle and joint ball and additionally paid to replace the two front tires, and the vehicle was balanced and aligned. The contact was then informed that there might be a reimbursement for the repairs once parts became available. The contact was informed that the vehicle was repaired and drivable, even though the part for the recall repair was unavailable. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and the repairs. The contact inquired about the safety of the vehicle despite the recall remedy not being available, but the manufacturer had not answered the question. The failure mileage was approximately 90,000.

Front Passenger door unlatched with no warning. Vehicle is available for inspection upon request. I made a quick stop off the highway and my passenger and I got back in the vehicle and pulled off and the door opened. She pulled the door closed and it wouldn't latch. At this point we were miles away from home. The door could've unlatched on the highway that we were just on and caused a major accident by getting caught by the wind and blowing open which could've shifted the vehicle into a ditch or into other vehicles. My passenger could've been leaning on the door and could've been injured or dead if she fell out and the seat belt didn't hold. After encountering this issue, I have been researching and noticed Safety Recall N335 was issued for Range Rover vehicles, however my year is listed but my vin# fell slightly out of range for this recall. This is a huge issue and can impact my life as well as the lives of others when door stop unlatching.

NHTSA Complaint Update : Final Submission Subject: AMENDMENT for 2015 Land Rover Range Rover Rollaway: Confirmed CAN Bus Communication Failure & Pattern Consistent with Recall 16V-368 I am submitting this update to my original complaint regarding a life-threatening rollaway incident on April 4, 2025, involving my 2015 Land Rover Range Rover (VIN: [XXX] .) New Critical Information: Diagnostic Confirmation: During evaluation by Jaguar Land Rover North America (JLRNA), the vehicle registered the fault code: “High Speed CAN Communication Bus Missing Message.” JLRNA’s engineer confirmed this indicates the rotary gear selector failed to communicate with the transmission, meaning the vehicle could display “Park” while remaining in gear. Prior Malfunction: Days before the rollaway, the gear selector became stuck in Reverse, requiring a battery disconnect to reset the system demonstrating a repeatable electronic instability in the shift-by-wire system. Severe Injury: The rollaway resulted in the vehicle striking and rolling over me, causing crush trauma and rhabdomyolysis with CPK levels of 10,000 U/L a near- fatal medical emergency. Safety Concern: This failure mode false Park indication due to electronic shifter communication loss is functionally identical to the defect addressed in NHTSA Recall 16V-368 (FCA, 2016), which cited rollaways, injuries and death due to rotary shifters that “do not provide clear indication of actual gear position.” Jaguar Land Rover uses a similar monostable rotary shifter design with no mechanical feedback. Given the severity of this incident and the confirmed communication fault, I urge NHTSA to investigate whether this represents a broader safety defect affecting JLR vehicles. The vehicle remains in JLRNA’s custody. I have formally requested preservation of all electronic data and components. Thank you for your attention to this urgent matter.
