| Electronic Stability Control problems |
I have had over 8 instances with either the lower screen, upper screen or both screens completely blacking out and being inoperable. Landrover has had 4 attempts to fix it unsuccessfully with landrover corporate involved. In addition, the side view mirrors dip down in reverse and did not correctly reset their position once in drive so I had zero visibility in drive in either side view mirrors. The screen issues has occurred on city streets and on the highway. The side view mirrors occurred on city streets. In addition I lose all control when the screens black out to control the climate, thermostat temperature, driver modes, rock crawl mode, and more. I sent Land Rover corp over 2 dozen pictures and videos documenting each time it occurred. The first issue happened in January 3 weeks after buying the car and they've continued throughout February and now are still continuing into March. I filed a complaint with corporate asking for a corporate by back under the lemon law which was denied. I paid 97,000 for this vehicle and the only thing they offered was one months free finance payment of $993. The car is not safe to drive!.
The bottom screen module in my vehicle is constantly going out. I'm not able to operate any of my control features in the vehicle. I've contacted the manufacturer and I have yet to receive any assistance in preventing this issue or fixing this issue. The screen controls the heating, air and other safety options such as the drive mode, defroster and etc.

I purchased the 2010 Land Rover Range Rover Sport hse Aug. 2015, it is now March 2016 and check engine light started illuminating (on a couple of days then off a couple of days) about 3 months ago. . . In the last month I took to mechanic that specifically specialize in rr, I got several diagnoses within the 4 to 6 hours I was there. . . One diagnosis was possible oxygen sensor then the other was possible holes in a certain tube which was sealed but dignois still wasn't found completely 100 percent. . . Well a week later check engine light back on. . . Well since then I have been researching and it's unbelievable as to how many rr owners have this issue. . . Now I'm highly concerned about was there a prior recall. . . The lr brand was supposed to be a replicable and high quality organisation but I do believe they focused to much on the "pretty" cosmetics of truck and the focus was not on the mechanics. . And really it was too many unnecessary "bells and whistles" added to truck to be able to tax for lurxy prices that the truck just simply can't handle. .
