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.

This part was just replaced three months ago and car had been driven 2000 miles before part failed in same manner. Part was original Land Rover part supplied by dealer.

2018 Land Rover Range Rover HSE V6, AWD. Two issues: 1.) When shifting into reverse, the rear camera does not come up on the main screen and you have to shift back into park, wait a few seconds and then shift back into reverse. Sometimes it may take 2-3 times to do this for the rear camera to come up on the screen. I am running the latest software/firmware version that Range Rover has automatically sent out (checked by clicking on "update software" and it says you have the latest). 2.) When the rear camera does come up, there is a noticeable, choppy lag of the frame rate on the screen. This means that while you are moving, the lag on the screen is delayed and is not real time while you are reversing. This is extremely dangerous as approaching cars or potential humans could come into your reverse path and you won't notice it until it's too late due to the lag/delay of the camera.

THE CENTER DISPLAY SCREEN TURNS BLACK AND STAYS THAT WAY FOR LONG PERIODS OF TIME. THE CLIMATE CONTROL TURNS ITSELF OFF AND ON. THE BACKUP DISPLAY VIDEO STAYS ON EVEN AFTER MOVING INTO DRIVE AND REACHING THE REQUIRED SPEEDS. IVE HAD NO RESPONSE FROM LAND ROVER CUSTOMER SERVICE SINCE DECEMBER 2020

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.

I WAS DRIVING IN THE LEFT LANE OF HIGHWAY AND EVERYTHING IN CAR SHUT DOWN. NO ACCELERATION, NO BRAKES, STEERING, NO ELECTRICAL PANEL, NO FLASHERS, NO BLINKERS. NOTHING. MORE PARTS THAN IISTED ABOVE WERE AFFECTED, BUT IT ONLY ALLOWED ME TO SELECT THREE

OUR NEW RANGE ROVER IS CREATING A SQUEALING NOISE FROM THE INTERIOR ELECTRONICS/AC UNIT. IT'S SIMILAR TO LETTING THE AIR OUT OF AN INFLATED BALLOON BY THE SPOUT. THE PITCH GOES HIGHER, LOWER, AND ALL OVER LIKE YOU ARE MOVING YOUR HANDS WHEN TRYING TO MAKE THE BALLOON SQUEAL. OUR VEHICLE IS NOW 3 MONTHS OLD, AND HAS SPENT 2.5 MONTHS IN SERVICE. AFTER RECENTLY GETTING OUR CAR BACK, THE SOUND CAME BACK RIGHT AWAY. THE SERVICE DEPT. IS CLUELESS, AND ALREADY HAD PUT OVER 200 MILES ON OUR CAR "TESTING IT IN REAL WORLD CONDITIONS." EVERY DEALERSHIP SALES & SERVICE MANAGERS, INCLUDING GENERAL MANAGER OF DEALER HERE IS HARDLY HELPING AND CLUELESS. THIS IS FROM RANGE ROVER NEWPORT BEACH, CA. NOW THIS SOUND IS WORSE, AND MAKES YOU WANT TO SMASH YOUR HEAD THROUGH THE WINDOW; IT'S BASICALLY SOUND TORTURE. OUR WINDSHIELD WIPERS HAVE ALSO NEVER WORKED, WHICH IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. HOWEVER: 1) WHEN THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS ARE SET TO ON, 2) AND THE VEHICLE IS IN REVERSE, 3) THEN THE REAR WINDOW WIPERS COME ON FOR SOME REASON.

AFTER ONLY FIVE DAYS OF OWNERSHIP, MAJOR COMPONENTS OF THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM FAILED, PARTICULARLY THE DISPLAYS ON ALL OF THE DRIVER INFORMATION SYSTEMS, INCLUDING ASSISTIVE SERVICES SUCH AS LANE DETECTION. THE SERVICE CENTER FIRST STATED THAT THE PROBLEM EAS SERIOUS AND RELATED TO FAULTY WIRING FROM THE FACTORY. THEY NOW CONTEND THAT THERE IS FAULTY SOFTWARE CAUSING THE SYSTEM TO FAIL.
