Front steering knuckle was cracked, Land Rover hadn’t notified me of any issues. I found the recall online, nearest dealer is 4-5 hours away. Was afraid to drive with cracked part. I replaced steering knuckle on my own out of pocket to keep vehicle safe. Vehicle was not in any accident or injuries. Defect found and fixed before anything could happen. Called Land Rover and they said no resolution for fix and when there was I would receive a letter on how to get it repaired or get reimbursed for repairs I had done to fix. Recall was issued in November of 2024, now August of 2025 still no info from Land Rover and dealer I have been in touch with still has no information either. I purchased parts in mid December of 2024 and had a local repair shop install it on 1-14-2025. Old part was retained as instructed by dealer I have been working with. From my findings in several forums that have members in other countries, they have issued the same recall in europe and canada and most vehicles were repaired by being taken into the dealer. Dealer I have been in contact with reported back to me that they had no parts to repair and advised me to get fixed on my own for now.

It is becoming very apparent that the front, left and right steering knuckle on these cars are failing due to cracks forming and in some instances the wheel breaking free from the car. This is a death trap for the cars affected and Range Rover needs to step up in the u. S. , like they did in the uk and recall these and have them replaced. Thank you.

I was made aware of a potential issue with my vehicles steering knuckle breaking where it connects to the upper control arm. I was also informed that Land Rover has done a recall in the uk for this same issue. I checked my vehicle and it does indeed hav a crack in the steering knuckle. This could have caused a catastrophic issue if it had broken completely at any road speed. This needs to be evaluated as soon as possible, before anyone dies.

The local dealer was contacted, and it was confirmed that the part was not available. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue. The contact stated that while accelerating from a stop light and driving approximately 15 mph, the driver’s side wheel collapsed rendering the vehicle undrivable.

The right front suspension knuckle cracked and separated from the upper control arm and when the knuckle cracked it damaged the right front axle, right front strut and height sensor. Bear valley service (Land Rover specialists) replaced the right front suspension, knuckle, control arm, axle, air spring and height sensor. Fortunately it happened while backing out of my driveway/turning into the street and not while I was driving on the interstate, it could’ve been catastrophic. Also fortunate that it didn’t happen the night before while driving on the interstate. The vehicle was not inspected by the manufacturer, police or insurance company. I found out about the NHTSA recall number 24v-840 on 12/11/24 so I took my 2015 Range Rover to Land Rover in atlanta, GA that day. They did not inspect the vehicle, they stated they were waiting on more information regarding the recall. No warnings whatsoever.

My 2015 Range Rover had a catastrophic failure of the driver side steering knuckle while underway. This caused me to lose control of the vehicle and the wheel almost fell off the car. Fortunately, I was going less than 30 mph. The failure was caused by the regular application of brakes approaching an intersection. Without the support of the steering knuckle the wheel has no support and the steering and braking are compromised. The vehicle is currently at the landrover dealership in bedford nh and has been inspected and the repair is estimated to cost 7900. An additional 3000 to replace the passenger side steering knuckle as well. There were no warning lamps or signs of the failure prior to the incident. The car has very low mileage for age and is exceptionally well maintained. Upon further investigation I discovered that hundreds of owners around the world and in the USA have experienced the same random failure on their 2015 model Range Rover. Both landrover canada and Land Rover uk have issued safety recalls(n759 recall number) for the same year and model of my vehicle. Land rover USA has not issued a recall and I think this is a major safety issue for this vehicle. The NHTSA should look into this. Clearly there was a bad batch of parts in the 2015 year and they have subsequently redesigned the parts. I've uploaded a couple of example letters for the International recalls. Yes the part is available for inspection or you can google it and see 100s of similar failures.

As I was backing out my driveway I heard a loud pop noise and then noticed that my front drivers side tire has collapsed making the car un-driveable. Had I been driving at high speed it could have resulted in a dangerous life threatening situation. It was towed to the dealer for inspection. There I was told that Range Rover in canada and the uk had been recalled for the same malfunction. My Range Rover has only been service by an authorized dealer and was at low mileage for the year of the car. Never had anyone who inspected or did work on the car saw any evidence that something was ready to break. It has since been repaired at a cost of $8031. 68. I reported to Land Rover north America they have declined to recognize any fault on their end and did not provide any assistance for the repair when they have seen this in other countries on my same model and year. Here is the canadian recall #n759 for steering knuckle collapsed.

Upon starting one morning I noticed the vehicle’s steering was heavier than usual. The next day, I heard strange noises like a knocking upon pressing the accelerator, and then the brake. The 3rd day, the steering column started making a scrubbing noise.

1. While driving 2006 Land Rover Range Rover hse (l322) , I stopped to groceries and to my surprise the key would not turn in the ignition . 2. The steering wheel was locked. I checked online and appears this is a major problem for 2006 and 2007 Range Rover hse per the Range Rover forum that has to be addressed by Range Rover 3. Danger is the occurrence of such an event on the highway.

Steering: linkages: knuckle: spindle: arm is cracking. Air bag has had issues and the light stays on.

In December 2020, this vehicle had been parked for approximately 30 minutes; after starting the vehicle, the "power steering electronic assist" light came on; there was no power steering available and it was almost impossible to steer the car. The car was towed to the Land Rover dealer; after 2-3 weeks, the repair was completed. They had to replace a wiring harness to the electronic power steering. We were never told why the harness failed. On November 15, 2021, the same issue occurred. The car had been parked for about an hour. Upon starting, the "power steering electronic assist" light came on again. Again, it was almost impossible to steer the car. Again, it was towed to the Land Rover dealer. Today, November 19, 2021 I was shown the problem with the wiring harness. Apparently, mice had chewed through the plastic wiring harness conduit and then into six wires of the harness itself. Since damage wasn't as bad as it was the previous year, the service department was able to splice wires back together to make the vehicle drivable again. This vehicle is parked outside in a parking lot 7, 365 days per year. There is no garage available. While we were lucky that the failure occurred when the vehicle was parked, we shutter to wonder what would have happened if the power steering had failed on the open highway traveling 70 mph, or even in town at slower speeds. It is almost physically impossible to turn the wheels without power steering. I believe Land Rover should come up with a beefier wiring harness that is less subject to failure because of mice or other rodents who may chew on the wiring. I am submitting this although I am not the vehicle's owner. I am his son-in-law. He decided to sell the vehicle immediately after the second incident due to the unreliability of the vehicle.
