ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, STEERING
Red warning in dash along with “stop safely, electrical fault detected.” Car drove normally for a mile before wipers came on and then multiple warnings for “collision, suspension, stability, height, tire, braking fault, ect. detected” came on. Car lost all power, steering wheel locked, unable to park or turn off vehicle with push button. Car rolled backwards if brake released. Hazards only came on at rear. Car towed to dealer; stated battery was “completely drained.” Dealer ended up replacing DC-DC converter and battery. 2 and 4 months prior (5/26 and 7/26), random electrical issues with radio, screen blanking out , volume unable to be changed, as well as various cameras and alerts for “collisions” would come on. Dealer looked over car and could not find anything wrong at that time.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I purchased my 2024 Land Rover Discovery new in March of 2024. In October of 2025, I found a large amount of water leaking through my windshield. Land Rover had my vehicle from October 2025 until April 2026. When it was returned to me it had mold in that had to be remidate3d and now my screen is starting to short. I am concerned of the safety of this vehicle and the amount of water that went into the electrical system.

STRUCTURE:BODY
JLRNA has identified my vehicle as unsafe to drive due to bonding delamination of the front windshield. As a result, the windshield had water egress. The service department has deemed my vehicle unsafe to drive as the windshield may not be properly bonded to the vehicle body, allowing it to loosen or detach during a crash. I am aware of multiple vehicles, including mine, currently waiting for replacement windshields at the dealership with no known ETA for replacement or repair of the windshield. This is a historical issue that JLRNA was ordered to resolve, as previous incidents were due to a manufacturing deviation in primer and bonding agent application.

TIRES
I was driving on a popular street on [XXXX] which I do all the time. The street is very well maintained. There are very few potholes and no debris in the street. I do know how to dodge pot holes. I was headed south. I left my home early it was [XXX]. I heard a popping noise then the truck dropped. I saw the icon on the dash showing about low tire pressure. I was very scared. There wasn’t much traffic I was able to drive slowly to a business parking lot. When I got out of the truck I saw the big whole in the tire and the back bumper hanging off and sensors hanging down and the paneling around the tire off. I purchased this 2024 Discovery [XXX] it was brand new. I have about 6140 miles on the truck. The truck has never been in service for any problems, other than my key fob was not working correctly. I have never got any warning messages about any tire issues on the truck prior to this incident. I had the truck towed to the dealership where I purchased it from. The service person told me the truck needs to go to the Body shop because it is not drivable. He told me they could put a tire on it but since you can’t drive it. I said why did you tell me about it for when you can’t drive it. I spoke to the owner of the dealership and he said I hit something. I told him I didn’t. There was nothing in the street. No one has taken the tire off to inspect at it. The truck will be sitting at the body shop for 2 weeks until they are able to work on it. The tire size is P185/75R1482S.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
My car caught on fire while driving only 5 days, and 210 miles, after being purchased brand new. I first smelled melted plastic, few seconds after that saw smoke rising up under the driver seat and then felt the seat getting hot and saw flames shooting under my seat. All along there were no warning messages or light displayed on the car. The car burned completely and was deemed totaled by my insurance. Insurance investigation, along with Land Rover representatives and local law enforcement detectives that were assigned to the case, determined it to be a manufacturing issue.
