Vehicle indicator states no more starts in 249 miles due to quality of diesel exhaust fluid. Car has been to dealership 3times and continues light/indicator comes on. Only owner of car and always new highest quality blue def used for vehicle. Car stopped while I was on a trip and would not restart while I was in a remote area. Dangerous situation stuck in middle of nowhere as female alone. Reviewing literature/blogs related to this issue and unbelievable amount of consumers with same issue. Thousands of dollars spent by reports and no resolution. This is not an issue of a part wearing and not working. It is obviously more involved as faulty equipment. One of the mechanics even advised me to sell the car because it is not “fixable”. We paid over $120,000 for this vehicle to have an issue that locks our car down and is not fixable. We have contacted Range Rover direct more than 3 times with no success. I asked about recalls because so many people are having this issue and they told me I had to report my concern to you. Any assistance with this issue would be greatly appreciated.

We purchased the vehicle new January 2023 and we drove for a couple of months without any issue, suddenly after filling the gas tank on Monday 4/10/2023 we noticed that the gas gauge dropped significantly after about an hour of drive time, later that evening the garage began smelling like gas through out the night without any leaks. The next day taking kids to school the smell was very bad in the car that we were all light headed during the 30 minutes drive time and had to pull over to inspect the vehicle for fuel leaks and could not observe any leaks. We rolled the windows down in cold weather and proceeded with the drive. We took it to landrover denver in littleton colorado on 04/13/23, since then they have been struggling as well to find why it is smelling as bad as it is and they contacted landrover USA without any luck, I contacted landrover USA multiple times and they claim they aren’t aware of any of such issues with their vehicles and couldn’t be of help. I emphasized the safety concerns especially with all of our health, they insisted that they are not aware of any of such issues with the vehicles.

Smells like gas. Defective fuel flange.

I am writing to alert you to a serious potential safety design problem that caused a slow leak in the fuel line system with my 2008 Range Rover hse and to ask for your help for further potential fire hazard investigation. The aluminum metal design of the fuel rail developed a seal leak in the damper that caused a slow fuel leak that I only noticed recently as I was watching my wife back the vehicle down the driveway. I walked over, touched the liquid and smelled it to verify in fact that it was a fuel leak. It was clear that the leak had been there for quite a while but went undetected due to lack of fuel vapor entering the interior of the car or detection by any of the vehicles safety/warning systems. Apparently, the vehicle was not designed to detect or alert for small but steady fuel system leaks. I took the vehicle to a Land Rover dealership where it was diagnosed with a fuel rail damper seal failure. Vehicle was repaired but what's more troubling is that they replaced the part �in kind� with no design improvement.

The catalytic converter on my car has a known defect which was covered under Land Rover extended warrant program q058. On my specific car, the warranty period expired on may 11, 2015. An independent mechanic diagnosed a bad catalytic converter on my car in Feb 04, 2014 and told me about the extended warrant program covering this known issue. I made several attempts to schedule an appointment with Land Rover manhattan dealership but wasn't successful in getting an appointment until after the warranty expired. Land rover is refusing to cover the repair and I have been tossed back and forth between the Land Rover dealer and corporate office. I think Land Rover waited until after the warranty expired so they can avoid paying for the repair.
