The contact owns a 2012 Land Rover Range Rover Sport. The contact stated that the vehicle was taken to the local dealer to be repaired under NHTSA campaign number: 21v635000 (fuel system, gasoline). After the recall repair, the vehicle unexpectedly ran out of fuel even though the instrument panel indicated approximately 90 miles to empty. The contact added fuel and resumed driving; however, the vehicle ran out of fuel while the display showed approximately 50 miles to empty. The vehicle was towed to the local dealer again.

Failure Date: 10/01/2025

The shop I took my vehicle too says the vehicle is leaking gas. They looked up the VIN for recalls showed me the recall said I'd have to take it to a dealership. So I scheduled an appointment for lakeland Jaguar and Land Rover and they told me they couldn't help me and don't wanna do the work if jlr isn't gonna reimburse them for recall. I can smell gas and it definitely isn't safe to drive. The dealership has written a service sheet but never touched the vehicle. Said they cant see the recall. Systems down. Wondering what do I do?.

3 Engine And Engine Cooling problem

Failure Date: 08/01/2025

Had a recall. I wasn't available on the date or a week or so after the appointment date. An ex of mine that had no authority to take my range rover into the dealership for the recall to get fixed, used my driver's license to get a rental Land Rover to use while my range rover was supposedly being fixed for the leaking fuel tank recall. So, Land Rover didn't care that it wasn't me getting to drive a $70,000 Land Rover while mine was getting fixed for recall. I figure out what happened & where my vehicle was & got the rental back to me in order to go get my vehicle back. I got to take it home,2 days later transmission messed up wouldn't shift out of park,started over heating,& I had to pull it with a rope from the store back home to park it. When I looked under the vehicle cause I was trying to figure out why it was majorly overheating, I then realized the gas was just pouring out near the transmission pan, which is where the fuel line runs from the top of the gas tank. My recall was for the fuel tank leaking originally. Now, Land Rover refuses to fix this major safety hazard/defect, stating that the gas pouring out doesn't stem from the recall. Which is complete bullshit! nothing was wrong with my vehicle when I bought it only a few months before I received the notice about the recall. Now, I can't drive it & it's sitting at the dealership that did the recall & didn't fix it. They towed it 2 days ago to their shop & called me the next day saying that the fuel pouring out & overheating doesn't have anything to do with recall or what they've done. Which is a lie. So, now my car is sitting up at the dealership off of dfw airport & they are expecting me to pay to get it towed back home & that they aren't going to fix my vehicle that they have totally destroyed. I can't get anyone to talk to me or return my calls. I can't get anyone to help me with this. They just hang up or give me a hard time about it & are denying what they have caused for my vehicle. Please help me!.

8 Engine And Engine Cooling problem

Failure Date: 03/18/2013

On 18/03/2013 5:50 pm, the car lost power & stopped suddenly when I was driving in a shopping plaza. Thank goodness I'm still alive! the car stopped in the front of marshalls (so I have lots of witness). Peoples were trying to push my car to parking lot because the car blocked the traffic but we couldn't move the gear to n. I finally re-started it after more than 10+ times trying. The car was sent to dealer by truck. However, no feedback from range rover yet (23/03/2013), no range rover man cares their customer!!! it's abviously a power or engine big problem. The first time I couldn't start the car was on 14/03/2013, put rangd rover roadside assistance only sent a jump start help to me. But it's not caused by the battery because I restarted it after 10+ times trying. Want to return the range rover junk.
