3 Software problem of the 2014 Land Rover Range Rover Sport

Failure Date: 05/01/2018

When stationary, backing up, and even driving the computer screen locks and parking aid alert, cameras unavailable. Please consult your dealer. Warning comes on preventing the ability to see blindspots when backing up that are not visible by turning and looking alone or using mirror. This has happened countless times. I have taken this to dealership under warranty and software updates have been done. However this is still happening. I contacted landrover and they stated this issue is known and no codes as to why it happens are able to be stored on this model as it was not made for this, however they will only replace if codes are stored. I have taken pictures and videos of this and sent to landrover, however they still want codes even after telling me they know it will never have them. This is alarming as the camera helps to ensure no person, animal, or object is behind vehicle that is unable to be seen without camera as this vehicle sits high. Also, this vehicle has other safety alerts that are part of the same system that has me worried could malfunction at any point such as auto braking to prevent hitting vehicles in front of you and auto cruise control that keeps a safe distance from the vehicles in front of you by slowing vehicle down automatically while set. This could cause someone to be injured or even killed as well as property damage. Also, my dash that shows speed fuel, and such is also fully digital and am worried this might be effected too and at any point lockup or disappear. Photos show different times on screen.

Failure Date: 03/08/2018

Vehicle has several electrical problems. The board will go black screen while driving. I took it to the dealer 2 times for the same problem, and they told me that they will contact me with a software update. It never happened. I dont have time to take a car to the dealer every week. It is a new car. I leased it on Sep. It would indicate malfunction engine light last time. The vehicle stopped in the middle of the road. I would start the engine and would not shift gear. I had to drive the vehicle mannually at 5 miles per hour to my house. The tow truck took my car 2 weeks ago to the dealer. The car is under repairs. No luck as to what is going on. Today they called that are changing the fuel pump. Waiting for the part and after installation they see if the problems are resolved.
