2013 Landrover Range Rover Evoque (3-Door) SUV 4WD

Exterior and interior began to smell of gasoline, upon investigation by accessing the low pressure fuel pump located under the rear seat, it was determined the fuel pump developed hairline cracks allowing fuel to leak onto the undercarriage of the vehicle.

The contact owns a 2013 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque. The contact stated while driving approximately 60 mph, the vehicle made an abnormally loud sound in the engine compartment. The contact stated that the service warning message was displayed. The vehicle was diagnosed with needing the exhaust replaced however, the vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was informed of the failure and informed the contact that the VIN was not under recall. The failure mileage was approximately 103,000.

Similar to those issues identified in Open Investigation EA 20-001, I was driving two boy scouts to camp when my vehicle's brakes no longer worked. The brake pedal was firm and vehicle would not slow down almost resulting in a catastrophic crash on Interstate 95. Was able to veer off the road into the shoulder and up a ramp with a hill to slow down to safety. Vehicle is currently at dealer for diagnostics and repair.

the windshield is getting microscratches in it and they seem to be on the inside of the glass they are getting worse and are impedeing me seeing.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 LAND ROVER RANGE ROVER. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 10 MPH, THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL DEALER LAND ROVER NORTH ATLANTA (1505 MANSELL RD, ALPHARETTA, GA 30009, (770) 587-2000) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED WITH NEEDING THE WIRING HARNESS FOR THE FRONT PASSENGER?S SIDE AIR BAGS TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE HAD BEEN REPAIRED. UPON INVESTIGATION, THE CONTACT ASSOCIATED THE FAILURE WITH NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 13V607000 (AIR BAGS) HOWEVER, THE DEALER STATED THE RECALL REPAIR WAS ALREADY COMPLETED. THE MANUFACTURER HAD BEEN INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 78,000. *BF CONSUMER STATED WIRING HARNESS WAS REPLACED.*JB

WAS DRIVING AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THERE WAS A LOUD WIND SOUND AND THEN ALL ENGINE POWER WAS LOST, IT ALSO WOULDN'T SHIFT BECAUSE OF THE LOSS OF ENGINE POWER. BUT I HAD TO AT LEAST MAKE IT HOME AND ON MY WAY HOME I WAS ON THE BYPASS AND I COULDN'T GET THE CAR TO GO ABOVE 65. IT WAS DEFINITELY STRUGGLING. I WENT TO SHOP AND GOT DIAGNOSED AND THEY CAME TO THE CONCLUSION THAT THE TURBO HAS GONE OUT AND THAT HAS BEEN A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE EVOQUE. SO NOW IT'S A HEFTY REPAIR DUE TO FAULTY MANUFACTURING OF THE TURBOCHARGER. I LOOKED IT UP AND IT SEEMS THAT MANY EVOQUE OWNERS HAVE HAD THE SAME ISSUE WITH THEIR TURBOS GOING OUT

VEHICLE IS LEAKING POWER STEERING FLUID WHICH CAN CAUSE OUT OF CONTROL ACCIDENTS LEADING TO LOSS OF LIFE. VEHICLE WAS PARKED ON MY DRIVEWAY AND I NOTICED SPOTS OF STAINS WHEN FURTHER INSPECT I NOTICE IT WAS POWER STEERING FLUID SWEATING COMING FROM THE POWER STEERING HOSE AT THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE. VEHICLE IS PARKED ON MY DRIVEWAY I HAVE ANOTHER VEHICLE THAT I'M USING IN THE MEANWHILE.

FRONT PASSENGER DOOR DOES NOT UNLOCK UNLESS OPENED FROM THE INSIDE; OR FRONT PASSENGER DOOR DOES NOT LOCK. BOTH ISSUES HAVE BEEN ONGOING AND HAS BEEN "FIXED" BY LAND ROVER 3 TIMES. THERE HAVE BEEN OTHER ELECTRICAL FAILURES INCLUDING THE AUTOMATIC LIFTGATE NOT WORKING IN THE PAST.

THE FRONT WINDSHIELD IS LOOSE AND LEAKS EXTREME TOOK IT TO A WINDSHIELD PROFESSIONAL AND SAID IT WAS A MANUFACTURER DEFECT BECAUSE THEY HAD MANY CLIENT WITH SAME PROBLEM. TOOK IT TO DEALER AND ALSO SAID CLIENTS WITH SAME PROBLEM. SADLY WHEN I CONTACTED CORPORATE THEY SAID THEY COULDN'T HELP. STANDING. JUST BOUGHT CAR FROM INDIVIDUAL. FOTO SHOWS PLASTIC BAG I HAD TO PUT FOR PROTECTION. WET ALL DASHBOARD STEERING AND LEATHER SEAT. *TR

PASSENGER SIDE SRS WARNING LIGHT. PASSENGER SEAT MODULE AND OCCUPANT SEAT SENSOR MODULE FAULT/ FAILED. ISSUE OCCURRED AND WAS CONSISTENT BOTH WHEN CAR WAS IN MOTION AND WHEN STATIONARY.

WHILE DRIVING MY CAR ON A ROAD AND ATTEMPTING TO MERGE ONTO A HIGHWAY (I10) IT LOST THE ABILITY TO ACCELERATE. THE VEHICLE WOULD THEN NOT SHIFT ABOVE 3RD GEAR (AUTOMATIC). WHEN I PLACED IT MANUALLY INTO HIGHER GEARS IT TRIED TO AUTOMATICALLY DOWNSHIFT. I WAS UNABLE TO ACCELERATE TO MERGE ONTO THE HIGHWAY. I HAD TO PLACE ON MY FOUR WAYS AND MAKE AN EMERGENCY STOP TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT CAUSING A VERY UNSAFE DRIVING SITUATION. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THAT THE TURBO COMPONENT HAD FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. AFTER IT WAS REPLACED I ASKED WHAT HAD CAUSED THE FAILURE AND THEY SAID THAT NOTHING I DID CAUSED IT. IT IS APPARENTLY A COMMON ISSUE FOR THE TURBO COMPONENT TO FAIL IN THE 2012-2014 MODELS. I WAS NOT WARNED ABOUT THIS SAFETY ISSUE AND THEY SAID IT IS CAUSED BY A KNOWN MECHANICAL ISSUE. THEY ALSO SAID THE REPLACED THE TURBO COMPONENT WITH AN ALTERNATE PART NUMBER BECAUSE THE ONE ORIGINALLY IN MY VEHICLE FAILS SO OFTEN THEY NO LONGER USE IT. THIS OCCURS OFTEN ENOUGH THEY ALREADY HAD THE PART IN STOCK. I THINK THEY SHOULD BE FORCED TO RECALL THESE FAULTY TURBO PARTS. I HAVE THE SERVICE RECORD IF NEEDED.

WHILE DRIVING ON A CITY STREET MY ENTIRE STEERING WHEEL CAME LOOSE AND DETACHED FROM THE VEHICLE.

76K MILES AND TURBO CHARGER NEEDS REPLACED. $3,454.00. RIDICULOUS. NO TEPAIR SHOULD BE THIS MUCH. MANY ONLINE COMPLAINTS AT SIMILAR MILES. FOR A 4 CYLINDER ENGINE THIS IS HORRIBLE! NOTICED SLOW ACCELERATION WHEN ATTEMPTING TO GO UP HILLS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 LAND ROVER RANGE ROVER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BRAKE LIGHTS ILLUMINATED ON THE VEHICLE WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS NOT DEPRESSED. THE VEHICLE WAS INCLUDED IN AN UNKNOWN RECALL, BUT THE REMEDY WAS NOT AVAILABLE. JAGUAR DALLAS (11400 N CENTRAL EXPY, DALLAS, TX 75243, 214-691-42944) WAS CONTACTED AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE ONLY RECALL WAS FOR THE DOOR LATCH. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 69,000.

SOUNDS LIKE THEY ARE VERY AWARE OR LTB00795NAS1. A TECHNICAL BULLETIN INVOLVING THE "ACTIVE ON DEMAND COUPLING OIL PUMP" THAT JUST HAPPENS TO MESS UP ON SPECIFIC CARS FROM A SPECIFIC PLANT AT WITH NO FAULT TO THE DRIVER, YET THIS IS NOT A RECALL?? I CALLED LR USA AND THE REPRESENTATIVE SAID IT DID NOT MEET THE STANDARDS OF A RECALL, WHATEVER THAT MEANS.

I HAVE 50234 MILEAGE IN MY VEHICLE AND MY TURBO WENT OUT I TOOK IT THE DELLER SHOP AND THEY DON'T COVER OR GIVE ME ANY KIND OFF DISCOUNT IF I NEW FROM THE BEGINNING I WELL NOT GONNA BY THIS CAR. I THOUGHT THIS CAR IS SUPPORT TO BE RELIABLE CAR I WANT SOME ONE TO ANSWER THIS FOR ME OR I WELL TAKE FATHER ACTION ASAP..

UPON STARTING THE ENGINE IN THE GARAGE WITH THE HEAT SYSTEM ON THE EXHAUST FROM THE ENGINE ENTERS THE CABIN OF THE CAR WITH CARBON MONOXIDE FUMES. SMELL IS SICKENING, POISONOUS, AND DANGEROUS. THE CAUSE AS PER MY REPAIRMAN: THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD HAS A FAULTY DESIGN. THE PIECES ARE WELDED, THE WELDING FAILS, A CRACK ALLOWS CARBON MONOXIDE TO LEAK INTO THE CABIN OF THE VEHICLE. THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD AND TURBO CHARGER ARE ONE PIECE. REPAIR COSTS OVER $3000. THE CAR HAS 44,000 MILES ON IT. THE NEWLY INSTALLED EXHAUST MANIFOLD/TURBO CHARGER IS THE SAME DESIGN THAT FAILED, LAND ROVER HASN'T MADE ANY CHANGES. IT'S LIKELY THIS NEW PART WILL FAIL AS WELL.

I WAS DRIVING AND I GOT A MESSAGE SAYING ABS INACTIVE NO STABILITY CONTROL THIS HAPPEND 2 TIMES ALREADY IN THE PAST MONTH

DRIVING ON PHOENIX CITY STREET 51ST AVENUE GOING SOUTH AT 5:00 PM IN AFTERNOON. FAILURE OF A ENGINE/COOLING SYSTEM OUTLET PIPE LED TO EXPULSION OF ALL COOLANT, OVERHEATING OF THE ENGINE TO ITS SHUTDOWN WITHIN THREE MINUTES, THE ENGINE GOT SO HOT IT RUPTURED A FUEL LINE OVER THE ENGINE SPRAYING THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT WITH GASOLINE. UNAWARE OF THE FUEL LEAK I ATTEMPTED TO RE START THE VEHICLE TO MOVE IT INTO A NEARBY PARKING LOT. I EVENTUALLY RESTARTED IT AND I LIMPED IT INTO THE PARKING LOT WHERE IT CONTINUED TO LEAK FUEL. THE ENGINE WAS BLOWN FROM THE OVERHEATING AND REQUIRES A COMPLETE REBUILD OR REPLACEMENT AT $15K TO $35K IN COST. THE LANDROVER SERVICE DIRECTOR ROBERT LYLER, CONFIRMED THAT FAILURE OF THE OUTLET PIPE IS COMMON. IT OCCURS RANDOMLY AND WITHOUT NOTICE OR ANY SIGNS OF FATIGUE OR WEAR. IT'S FAILURE IS ALWAYS A MASSIVE RUPTURE, NEVER JUST A LEAK OR SMALL SPRAY. I RECEIVED ONLY A 5 SECOND WARNING THAT THE COOLANT WAS LOW. NO OTHER WARNING LIGHTS APPEARED AND THE TEMPERATURE GUAGE NEVER SHOWED THE HIGH TEMPERATURE OR OVERHEATING. MY FAMILY AND I ARE LUCKY THAT THE ENGINE DID NOT CATCH FIRE AND THE FIRE FOLLOW THE FUEL LINE TO THE GAS TANK ENDING IN AN EXPLOSION. THE VEHICLE IS NOW AT THE LANDROVER NORTH SCOTTSDALE DEALERSHIP. IT HAS NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE EXTENDED WARRANTY COMPANY REFUSED TO PAY SAYING THAT THE PART WAS A WEAR AND TEAR/MAINTENANCE ITEM AND I HAVE FILED A CLAIM WITH LAND ROVER CORPORATE BUT HAVE RECEIVED NO RESPONSE AS OF THIS CLAIM. PLEASE SEE ATTACHED DOCUMENT FOR A MORE DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INCIDENT.

VEHICLE HAS JUST OVER 50,000 MILES , WARRANTY EXPIRES AT 50,000. LOOKING ON THE INTERNET I FOUND THAT THE 2013-2015 MODELS OF THIS CAR HAS HAD HUNDREDS OF PROBLEMS WITH THE TURBO WHICH GOES OUT BEFORE AND AFTER 50,000 MILE ,MOST OF THE TIME LAND ROVER WILL NOT COVER ALWAYS BLAMING THE CONSUMER , I FOUND WELL OVER A MILLION HITS ON THE INTERNET CONCERNING THIS PROBLEM , BUT LAND ROVER REFUSES TO DO A RECALL, CAR ACTUALLY LOSES ALL POWER AND STOPS DEAD ANYWHERE WHEN IT BLOWS , IF YOU GO ON THE INTERNET YOU'LL SEE A CLUB THAT FORMED IN ENGLAND CONCERNING THIS , THERE ARE LITERALLY THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS ON THE FAULTY TURBO'S ON THE ENGINE ON THE 2013-2015 RANGE ROVER EVOQUES,. LAND ROVER N.A. CUSTOMER SERVICE ACTUALLY BLAMED ME FOR NOT DOING OIL CHANGES , WHICH I HAVE ALL RECEIPTS , SOCIAL MEDIA HAS HUNDREDS OF PAGES RELATING TO THE EVOQUES TURBO FAILURES, ALSO CONSUMER AFFAIRS HAS SEVERAL PAGES ON THE RANGE ROVER EVOQUES ENGINE AND TURBO PROBLEMS AND FAILURES , WHY HASNT THE U SGOVERMNENT FORCED A RECALL ON THIS SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE, LIKE I PREVIOUSLY STATED , THIS HAPPENS WHEN I VEHICLE WAS ON THE INTERSTATE , I READ WHERE ONE GIRL IN OHIO WAS IN THE MIDDLE LANE OF AN INTERSATE AND HER CAR STOPPED DEAD ,ALMOST GETTING REAR ENDED , PLEASE ADDRESS THIS ISSUE,

DASHBOARD IS HEAVING, SEPARATING AND EXPOSING THE AIRBAG ON PASSENGER SIDE. DEALER CANNOT REPAIR BUT SAID THAT IF THE SEPARATION BECOMES LARGER THE AIRBAG MAY NOT DEPLOY IN THE PROPER DIRECTION OR MAY DEPLOY UNNECESSARILY. DEALER RECOMMENDED ENTIRE DASHBOARD REPLACEMENT FOR $3600. THE SEPARATION IS OF COURSE GETTING BIGGER EVERY DAY AN POSES A SAFETY RISK. THE ATTACHED PICTURE WAS TAKEN SEVERAL WEEKS AGO AND THE SEPARATION IS NOW MUCH LARGER.

FAMILY OF FOUR DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEED OF 70MPH WHEN BRAKES GAVE OUT. DRIVING STRAIGHT ON FLAT HIGHWAY IN SUNNY DAY CONDITIONS. COULD NOT STOP THE CAR. AFTER BARELY MISSING CAUSING A MAJOR ACCIDENT, WAS ABLE TO MAKE IT TO THE SHOULDER. THE CAR IS ONLY FOUR YEARS OLD WITH 47K MILES. VACUM PUMP AT FAULT. A MODERN 4 YEAR OLD CAR SHOULDN'T PUT PEOPLES LIVES AT RISK FOR MASS BREAK SYSTEM FAILURE. WE ARE FORTUNATE TO HAVE AVOIDED THE ACCIDENT BUT PEOPLE COULD HAVE DIED. I CONTACTED RANGE ROVER CORPORATE BUT DID NOT SHOW ANY CONCERN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 RANGE ROVER EVOQUE. WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE, THE AIR BAG SENSOR REMAINED ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE AIR BAG MODULE WAS FAULTY AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED.

THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V395000 (AIR BAGS), ALTHOUGH THE FAILURES WERE IDENTICAL. THE VIN WAS INVALID. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 66,000. UPDATED 10/17/17*LJ *AS

PASSENGER AIRBAG SENSOR HAS DISABLED MY PASSENGER AIRBAG. NOTE: NOTICED OTHER LAND ROVER VEHICLES HAVE A RECALL FOR THIS SAME ISSUE. IF MY VEHICLE HAS THE SAME ISSUE, SHOULDN'T IT BE RECALLED AS WELL? NO ACCIDENT, THE LIGHT JUST CAME ON FOR NO REASON WHILE DRIVING WITH NO PASSENGER.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 RANGE ROVER EVOQUE. WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AND FAILED TO RESPOND. AS A RESULT, THE CONTACT CRASHED INTO THE REAR OF ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. THERE WERE NO INJURIES AND A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. TWO MONTHS PRIOR TO THE CRASH, THE BRAKES FAILED TO RESPOND. THE CONTACT PULLED OVER AND NOTICED FLUID COMING FROM THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE WHEEL. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKE FLUID HOSE WAS DAMAGED AND NEEDED REPLACEMENT. THE REPAIRS WERE COMPLETED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 52,600.

MY LAND ROVER EVOQUE WAS RUNNING IN MY DRIVEWAY IN THE PARK POSITION (WARMING UP). I STEPPED OUT OF THE VEHICLE TO GRAB SOMETHING FROM MY HOUSE AND WITHIN MINUTES I HEARD A BANG, THE CAR WENT INTO DRIVE AND SMASHED INTO MY FENCE, CONTINUED TO SMASH THROUGH THE FENCE AND LANDED INTO MY POOL. IT STOPPED THERE AND NEEDED TO BE TOWED OUT. THIS IS THE SECOND INSTANCE. THE FIRST INSTANCE HAPPENED IN MARCH 2015. MY CAR WAS IN PARK IN THE DRIVEWAY. I STARTED THE CAR, RAN BACK INTO MY HOUSE AND HEARD A LOUD BANG. THE CAR SLAMMED INTO MY FENCE BUT LUCKILY A CEMENT POST STOPPED IT. WHEN I APPROACHED THE CAR IT WAS IN THE PARK GEAR AND LUCKILY NO EXTERNAL DAMAGE WAS DONE. THIS SHIFT GEAR NEEDS TO BE LOOKED AT FOR A POTENTIAL RECALL.

THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE MIRRORS DO NOT UNFOLD IF YOU FOLLOW THESE STEPS. I HAVE TESTED THIS ON MY 2013 EVOQUE AND A RENTAL 2014 Y YOU WILL NEED TWO PEOPLE TO REPRODUCE THIS. 1) HAVE PASSENGER HOLD THE KEY AND UNLOCK THE VEHICLE FROM A DISTANCE 2) DRIVER GETS IN, AND TRIES STARTING VEHICLE WITH THE PASSENGER IN THE CAR BUT THE KEY MUST NOT BE DETECTED (I.E.: DRIVER PUSHES START BUTTON WHILE PASSENGER IS JUST GETTING IN THE CAR, SUBSEQUENT ATTEMPTS SHOULD RESULT IN "KEY NOT DETECTED" EVEN IF THE DRIVER NOW HOLDS THE KEY IN THEIR HAND.) 3) WHILE SITTING IN THE CAR, LOCK THE CAR USING THE KEYFOB. 4) CAR SHOULD NOW START WHEN YOU PUSH THE START BUTTON. TAKE NOTE AT HOW THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE MIRRORS WILL NOT UNFOLD EVEN WHEN THE CAR IS ABLE TO BE DRIVEN DOWN THE ROAD. THIS HAPPENED TO ME DURING THE NIGHT WITH MY BLACK VEHICLE AND I COULD NOT TELL THAT THE MIRRORS WERE NOT UNFOLDED AND IT APPEARS TO THE DRIVER THAT THEY ARE JUST FINE WHEN THEY TRULY ARE JUST PROVIDING A REFLECTION OF THE CAR, SO I WAS NOT ABLE TO SEE ANY TRAFFIC USING THOSE MIRRORS. THE SIMPLE FIX IS TO GET OUT OF THE CAR, LOCK IT, UNLOCK IT, GET IN AND START IT AND THE MIRRORS WILL COME OUT. I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO EASILY REPRODUCE THIS, SHOULD YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ON REPRODUCING IT PLEASE LET ME KNOW. -REGARDS, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 RANGE ROVER EVOQUE.

ENGINE MISFIRES CAUSING CAR TO LOSE POWER AND GO INTO 'RESTRICTED MODE'. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS. IT HAPPENED AT HIGH SPEED, MAKING IT VERY UNSAFE TO PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY - ALMOST CAUSING A MULTIPLE VEHICLE ACCIDENT. TAKEN TO DEALER 3 TIMES AND THEY HAVE NOT RESOLVED THE ISSUE. INFORMED LANDROVER USA ABOUT MY CONCERNS AND THEY HAVE NOT BEEN HELPFUL - SAYING TAKE THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALER AND PAY AN ADDITIONAL $380 FOR DIAGNOSTICS AFTER ALREADY PAYING THEM $200 AS THE CAR IS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY. VEHICLE HAS $59,250 MILES. OTHER EVOQUE OWNERS ALSO EXPERIENCE SIMILAR PROBLEMS.

LAND ROVER PART # KNB 500023, LISTED AS KNB 500080 IN THE RANGE ROVER KIT ACCESSORY BOOKLET IS FOR A TOW HITCH, THAT HAS A HIGH FAILURE RATE. FILED CASE WITH LAND ROVER AND THEY REFUSE TO CORRECT PART UNDER THEIR LAND ROVER PROTECTION PLAN IN FORCE. THE UNIQUE PART MALE END IS INSERTED INTO A FEMALE INTEGRATED PART OF THE CHASSI AND TOGETHER FORMS A 2" X 2" CLASS III CAPABLE OF TOWNING 77016 # WITH A TONGUE WEIGHT OF 550# AS IMPRINTED OR FORGED ON THE LAND ROVER PART. THERE ARE CASES ON RECORD IN OTHER COUNTRIES THAT THERE IS A HIGH DEGREE OF FAILURE RATE WHEN THE VEHICLE IS TOWING TRAILERS ACCORDING TO THE MANUFACTURE SPECIFICATION. SO REPORT THAT THE LOCKING SYSTEM , DOES NOT LATCH FULL AND REPORTS OF THESE 5# PART WILL FALL OFF WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. I HAVE HAD TWO FAILURE ON TOWING AND CONSIDER THIS A HIGHWAY SAFETY ISSUE SUBJECT TO IMMEDIATE RECALL.

VEHICLE WAS REVERSED OUT OF GARAGE AND VEHICLE WAS STOPPED WHEN EXITING THE VEHICLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 LAND ROVER EVOQUE. WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH, THE VEHICLE HESITATED TO STOP ACCELERATING. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 94,000.

VEHICLE BATTERY WAS BEING DRAWN DEAD INEXPLICABLY. FOUR SERVICE VISITS TO DEALER REVEALED NOTHING OTHER THAN A SILLY STORY FROM IT THAT THE CAR WAS NOT BEING DRIVEN LONG ENOUGH FOR THE BATTERY TO RECHARGE. A DIAGNOSTIC I OBTAINED FOUND A CONSTANT 12 VOLT DRAW ON THE BATTERY MORE REASONABLY EXPLAINING WHY THE 3 BATTERIES WERE DRAINED DEAD... DEALER HAD ME USING A "TRICKLE CHARGE" PLUGGING INTO AN OUTDOOR ELECTRIC OUTLET EACH NIGHT WHICH ONLY DELAYED THE INEVITABLE DEAD BATTERY. I ATTEMPTED TO LEMON LAW UNSUCCESSFULLY UNDER NYS LAW... READ ONLINE ABOUT THE "DEAD BATTERY CLUB" AMONG OWNER AND THUS CAME HERE...

TL* THE CONTACT WAS A BODY SHOP OWNER AND WAS DOING FRONT END REPAIRS ON A 2013 LAND ROVER RANGE ROVER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS TRAVELING 5 MPH IN A DRIVEWAY AT THE TIME OF THE INCIDENT. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE HAD SEVERE DAMAGE FOR A VERY MINOR ACCIDENT. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER DID NOT HAVE THE PART FOR THE CONTACT TO ORDER. THE MINOR INCIDENT CAUSED THE FRONT END DRIVER SIDE SHOCK TOWER TO BREAK AWAY FROM THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE WAY THE FRONT END WAS MADE, THE DAMAGE SHOULD HAVE BEEN A MINIMUM OF $2,500 INSTEAD OF $50,000. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THEY DID NOT HAVE A REPAIR FOR MOST OF THE DAMAGE THE VEHICLE SUFFERED FROM THE INCIDENT. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

I WAS STOPPED AT A STOP LIGHT WITH MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE PEDAL. SUDDENLY THE ENGINE RPM WENT TO WIDE OPEN THROTTLE. I MASHED ON THE BRAKE AS HARD AS I COULD BUT THE VEHICLE KEPT GOING FORWARD. MY SON WAS IN THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME AND EVEN THOUGH HIS WINDOWS WERE CLOSED AS IT IS COLD HE HEARD THE ENGINE SCREAMING AND SAW THE VEHICLE MOVING FORWARD. HE MOVED FORWARD SO I DID NOT HIT HIM. I WAS ABLE TO PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK AND THEN THE ENGINE WENT BACK TO IDLE. *TR

WE WERE HEADED DOWN A FAIRLY STEEP GRADE THAT WAS COVERED IN PACKED SNOW CONDITIONS, THERE IS A BUTTON IN THE CAR THAT CONTROLS VARIOUS TERRAIN CONDITIONS AND ONE OF THEM HAS A SNOWFLAKE ON IT, MY WIFE SUGGESTED WE PUT IT IN THAT POSITION AND I THOUGHT THAT WOULD BE GOOD SINCE IT WAS SNOWING. THERE IS ALSO A HILL DECENT BUTTON THAT CONTROLS SPEED GOING DOWN HILL THAT WE HAD BEEN USING EARLIER ON DRY CONDITIONS THAT WAS ENGAGED. AS WE HEADED DOWN THE SLICK GRADE AT A CRAWLING RATE OF SPEED THE CARS BRAKES LOCKED DOWN TO THE BEST OF MY KNOWLEDGE THE WHEELS WERE TOTALLY SLIDING THE ANTI-LOCK SYSTEM WAS MAKING NOISE BUT WE WERE JUST SLIDING. I HAD NO LUCK TURNING THE WHEEL OR ASSISTING THE BRAKES TO GET THE CAR TO STOP SLIDING, WE WERE IN NO DOUBT HEADED OFF THE ROAD AND DOWN A MOUNTAIN WHEN I DECIDED TO STEP ON THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL AND THIS UNLOCKED THE BRAKES SO I COULD TURN, AS SOON AS I LET OFF THE GAS IT WOULD LOCK BACK DOWN AND START SLIDING. THERE WAS A ROAD JUST AHEAD OF US TO THE RIGHT THAT HEADED UP THE MOUNTAIN SO I STEPPED ON THE GAS AND TOOK IT UP THE ROAD TO GET THE CAR TO STOP WHILE WE WERE STILL ALIVE. WE THEN LOOKED IN THE OWNERS MANUAL AND IT DID NOT MENTION IF YOU PUT THE CAR IN SNOW FLAKE MODE IT WOULD LOCK DOWN THE WHEELS ON STEEP GRADES. SO AFTER MY WIFE SAID WE ARE SELLING THIS PIECE OF C--- I PUT THE CAR BACK IN REGULAR DRIVING MODE AND WE HEADED BACK DOWN THE SLOPE JUST USING A LOW GEAR AND MANUAL BRAKING AND THIS WOULD WORK IF YOU DID NOT PUSH ON THE BRAKE TO HARD, THEN IT WOULD START SLIDING AGAIN. SO WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALER WHEN WE HAD A CHANCE AND THEY SAID IT WAS FINE! I STILL DO NOT SEE ANY WARNINGS ABOUT NOT PUTTING THE CAR IN CERTAIN POSITIONS FOR VARIOUS DRIVING CONDITIONS ON ANY BUTTONS IN THE CAR OR IN THE OWNERS MANUAL. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 LAND ROVER EVOQUE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE HESITATED TO ACCELERATE FROM A STOP. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 14,694.

I GOT OUT OF THE EVOQUE WITH IT RUNNING AND THE DOOR OPEN. WHEN I CAME WALKING BACK THE CAR WAS GOING UP THE ROAD BY ITSELF IN REVERSE. IT HIT A MAILBOX THAT STOPPED IT. IT COULD HAVE HIT KIDS THAT ARE USUALLY IN THE AREA. LR/RR LOOKED AT IT FOR TWO WEEKS THEN TOLD ME I MUST HAVE LEFT IT IN REVERSE AND GOT OUT OF THE SUV SOMEHOW BEFORE IT MOVED. THEY WERE NOT GOING TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. WHEN I GOT IN THE SUV AFTER IT HIT THE MAILBOX IT WAS STILL IN PARK. LONG STORY SHORT IS LR/RR IS DOING NOTHING FOR US. NOW THE BODY SHOP IS TELLING US THE REPAIR PARTS THAT I HAVE TO PAY FOR WILL TAKE UP TO ONE YEAR TO GET IN. WE HAVE BEEN OVER 60 DAYS AND STILL THEY HAVE NO ETA FOR THE PARTS. WHAT A JOKE FOR A COMPANY OF THIS SIZE. MY WIFE WILL NEVER AGREE TO DRIVE THIS SUV AGAIN WITH THIS ISSUE. NEVER BUY A RR/LR. *TR

THE NEW GENERATION 2013 RANGE ROVER, RELEASED IN DECEMBER 2012, DOES NOT HAVE ADEQUATE WINDSHIELD WASHER SPRAY NOZZLES. THEY ARE UNABLE TO APPLY WASHER FLUID TO CLEAR AN OBSTRUCTED WINDSHIELD AT ANY TRAVELING SPEED. THIS CREATES A DANGEROUS DRIVING CONDITION DURING ANY WINTER DRIVING WHICH WILL LEAD TO ACCIDENTS. LAND ROVER CORPORATE OFFICES ARE UNWILLING / UNABLE TO ADDRESS THIS DESIGN FLAW IN ANY MANNER. THEY WOULD ONLY "REFER THIS DESIGN COMPLAINT" TO THEIR CORPORATE DESIGN ENGINEERING IN SOLIHULL, ENGLAND.

THE WASHER FLUID SPRAY NOZZLES DOES NOT PROVIDE SUITABLE SPRAY ONTO THE WINDSHIELD OTHER THAN IN PARK. INADEQUATE DESIGN, FLOW, SPRAY PATTERN IS CAUSING A SAFETY VISIBILITY ISSUE. I HAVE ATTEMPTED TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE WITH LANDROVER USA CUSTOMER SERVICE HOWEVER THEY WILL NOT FIX THE CONCERN. THEY HAVE LABELED THE ISSUE AS A "DESIGN CONCERN" NOT A SAFETY ISSUE AND "NOTIFIED" ENGINEERING IN ENGLAND FOR THEIR "POSSIBLE" REVIEW. TO CLEAR THE WINDSHIELD IN WINTER DRIVING, I MUST PULL OVER EVERY 10 - 15 MILES TO SPRAY WINDOW. THIS IS A BRAND NEW VEHICLE DESIGN FOR LAND ROVER AND AN OBVIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. I WOULD LIKE TO FILE A FORMAL SAFETY COMPLAINT WITH NHTSA.. THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION. I CAN FORWARD VIDEO AND PICTURES OF THE ISSUE IF DESIRED.
