When using my parking assist feature for the first time the vehicle malfunctioned causing me to hit the car that I was trying to park in front of. The park assist took over when I engaged it but accelerated and hit the care without warning. I happened so quickly that I could not apply the brake until it was too late. There were 4 of us in the car at the time and were all shocked. Luckily no one was injured but it was definitely a possibility and there was damage to both vehicles. The police were called but did only did an information exchange form. I tried the feature the next day in an empty parking lot and again the back up speed was noted to be too fast. I took it to the dealer the following Monday and they said the computer showed no malfunction but they did agree that one of the sensors should have warned me and that the speed is set too high. They said that it is not something that they can adjust however and urged me to reach out to Land Rover’s customer service. Land rover customer service told me to fill out this form. My insurance agent told me that this is their 3rd claim in a month with this issue. The dealer told me that they do not tell people that they have this parking assist feature because it is an issue. Why is not one addressing it then?!.
The panoramic sunroof is cracked in several places impacting only the front half of the sunroof. There is not indication of a point of impact that would have caused the cracks. The vehicle is garage kept and has been driven minimally this summer. The were noticed on Saturday, July 18th when I opened the retractable interior roof. My safety is at risk because of the potential for the glass to fall from the roof while I'm driving. The panoramic sunroof has not been inspected by any one other than myself and my husband. The vehicle is available for inspection upon request. There is no warning or indication that the panoramic sunroof is cracked.
There are two primary complaints on the vehicle since it was lease on may 26, 2025. (1) clunking metal on metal sound when the vehicle is in reverse as well as sharp right or left turn or general braking. The sound is most audible on the rear right side of the vehicle. This matter was reported > 3 times to the freeport landover dealership; the last visit was in October 2025. During the visit the techs claim not to hear any noise and the issue persists, even at time of this complaint. The vehicle has about 5,100 miles and has been in for service, since june11, 2025, July 2025, August 2025 and was held there until sept. 30, 2025. (2) reported brake issues as of June 2025, within 1 week of having the vehicle. September 2025, after two previous visits and the vehicle being held from 8/29/2025 through September 30, 2025, the front brakes were changed and again the squeaky brake issues is still happening every time it rains or snows or I get a car wash. It is evident this vehicle has defects since manufacturing. I had for 4. 5 years, the range rover 2020 evogue, which I traded in for this Range Rover Sport and had zero mechanical issues.
