NHTSA Complaint #11534705 — 2016 LAND ROVER RANGE ROVER SPORT

Our engine locked up when a hose split under the water pump. I have talked to numerous people that their vehicles were damaged/affected the same way. The dealer says that we need to replace the entire engine (Cost $24,000). I was also speaking to a dealer that said they know of potentially hundreds that were affected this way. This hose issue/concern should have been recalled and replaced before this major/costly damage to the engine. I feel that Land Rover should cover this damage/expense because they are aware that this is an issue/concern. I was told that when this hose splits that the engine overheats/locks up in just seconds.
