2015 Land Rover Range Rover

THE PLATE THAT HOLDS UP THE GAS TANK IS RUSTING AWAY, CAUSING THE GAS TANK TO NOT BE FULLY SUPPORTED THIS COULD LEAD TO THE WHOLE GAS TANK BEING INSECURE

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

i have tried to get the recall 25V-514 repaired at two separate LR dealerships. One in MA and one in FL No parts available and no information on when they will be available.. Call LR customer service only to be told they dont have any information on parts availability. Recieved original notification 12/18/24 Second notification 9/5/25 MANY people affected by this safety issue and NO-ONE KNOWS WHEN THIS WILL BE RESOLVED We need NHTSA help to light a fire under JLR

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.

See attached document for complaint. text from attached document: I am writing to express my profound concern and disappointment regarding Safety Recall N759, which affects my 2015 Range Rover. I received the initial recall notification in late 2024, detailing a serious safety risk: the potential for the front suspension upper knuckle joint to crack, leading to a loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash. It has now been nine months since the initial alert, and there has been no follow-up communication regarding a solution or the availability of replacement parts. Multiple calls to your Customer Service department, and to my local dealership (Land Rover Chantilly on 4120 Auto ·Park Cir, Chantilly, VA 20151) have confirmed that no solution has been developed.

Incident Description: On April 4, 2025, after placing the vehicle in "Park," it suddenly and rapidly began reversing without driver input. The open door struck me, knocking me to the ground and the vehicle rolled over my legs, groin and arm before stopping after colliding with a dirt pile. This resulted in severe injuries and hospitalization. The vehicle’s gear selector is the rotary dial type. Post incident diagnostic reports showed communication faults between the shifter assembly and transmission control. Jaguar Land Rover North America (JLRNA) currently has the vehicle under extended diagnostic evaluation but has not provided a confirmed root cause. The malfunction may relate to electronic gear-shift or transmission control failures. I am reporting this incident for federal safety review, as this defect presents a potential risk of uncommanded vehicle movement and serious bodily harm. Additional Information: The vehicle remains in JLRNA custody. Original diagnostic codes were recorded by their engineer. I have experienced significant injury and loss of use. I request NHTSA’s review and tracking of this defect for other potential affected vehicles.

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.
