When the auto start/stop is engaged and the engine is off (e.g. at a stop light), the car will sometimes shut down. It is as if I pressed the button to park the car. The shifter knob retracts but the indicator light stays on “D” for several seconds and I can’t restart the car. It has happened when I’m in an intersection waiting to turn left and has stranded me in the middle of the intersection. I have reported this problem several times to the dealership but they say they can’t reproduce the issue and there are no advisories from Land Rover. I have a suspicion that Land Rover knows about the issue but has no fix for it

The front suspension knuckle on my 2016 Range Rover developed a visible crack, which caused severe play in the steering and made the vehicle unsafe to drive. On even small bumps, the vehicle would suddenly and forcefully pull into other lanes, creating a serious hazard. My safety, my [XXX] child’s safety, and the safety of others on the road were clearly at risk. I brought the vehicle to an authorized Land Rover dealership on January 30, 2025, where the issue was diagnosed and confirmed. I was advised not to drive the vehicle due to the danger, and it has remained parked at the dealership since that day. This issue is part of an open safety recall, but there has been no repair, no replacement part, and no loaner or rental vehicle provided to date. The vehicle has been out of service for nearly five months. There were no dashboard warning...
At the end of May, about 10 days after getting my car serviced at the Land Rover Manhattan location middle of May, I headed to a short trip with my family. An hour into our trip, I could hear horrible noises coming from the engine, as if the gears were grinding with the engine shaking drastically. As I tried to pull to the side of the highway to safety, smoke started coming out of the front of my car. I got my family out of the car immediately and called roadside assistance. I went to inspect my car while we waited, and I noticed that there was oil all over the front (and rear) bumpers, as if all of the oil had spilt while I was driving. This was extremely strange since there was no light on my dashboard and my car had recently been serviced. It has been a...
I HAVE A RANGE ROVER EVOQUE 2016. WHEN MY CAR IS FACING FORWARD ON A DOWNWARD SLOPE IN REVERSE GEAR, THE CAR WILL ROLL FORWARD. WHEN THE CAR IS ON A DOWNWARD BACKWARD SLOPE FACING UPHILL IT WILL ROLL BACKWARDS. THE DEALERSHIP STATED THAT LAND ROVER CHANGED THE SOFTWARE IN THE 2016 VEHICLE WHICH RESULTS IN THIS ISSUE. THIS ISSUE MAKES THE CAR INHERENTLY UNSAFE IN THESE SITUATIONS. JAGUAR/LAND ROVER DO NOT ACKNOWLEDGE THIS TO BE A FAULT BECAUSE IT WAS A SOFTWARE UPDATE AND IS, THEREFORE, PART OF THE OPERATION OF THIS MODEL.
