Four problems related to software have been reported for the 2014 Land Rover Range Rover. The most recently reported issues are listed below.

1 Software problem

Failure Date: 12/12/2019

My door locks are failing and Land Rover / Range Rover is telling me it has nothing to do with your prior investigation, recall or other. First, I couldn't get my passenger door to lock, then it suddenly started working again. Now, I can't get my driver side to lock, and my passenger is fine. Land rover claims they already updated my "software" but I think it's something much more detailed than that, as there are literally 1000's of people asking on the internet about the exact same problem. Not sure if this will result in my doors flying open suddenly, as has been documented in prior cases with NHTSA for my year Range Rover - but I truly feel as if they know about a problem with their door actuators, software and locks but are unwilling to fix them in their dealership under recall or warranty. Several dealers have noted for my VIN, they've developed new actuators because of flaws in previous versions and want me to spend upwards of $2k to have replacements.

2 Software problem

Failure Date: 09/24/2019

I have the 2014 Range Rover with the v6 supercharged gas engine. During a rolling start, such as rolling start to perform a u-turn or merging into a highway, the acceleration is delayed by at least 2 seconds, which is very dangerous. Especially during merging on to the freeway the 2 seconds acceleration lag could send false information to the other cars and made me almost crash for a few times. It should be a transmission or engine management software update to address this issue.

3 Software problem

Failure Date: 05/02/2017

While driving home yesterday my driver door flew open while going down hwy 167 south. ( I know the door was shut! it was locked when I got in the car) while driving the rest of the way home holding the driver door shut ! because it wouldn't close!( not even the soft shut door close) I got home and research for recalls or safety issues. . . There is a recall but, says it was done a year ago! but, apparently the recall part or software didn't work! I almost fell out of the SUV yesterday while driving!.
