ENGINE, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, SERVICE BRAKES
On first occastions while driving at 60+ MPH on a busy highway, the vehicle beeped for a few seconds and the dashboard went blank, engine died, no brakes, no power steering. It was only a miracle that saved me from being hit at a high speed by other drivers. The dealer charged the battery and updated the SW. Approximately 5 weeks later, on the second occasion after driving 300 miles out of town, the same thing happened again. Luckily, I was on a local road and was able to get off the travel lanes. On both occasions, the vehicle was towed to a Land Rover Dealership. The vehicle remains at the dealership now for the past 10 days while they try to figure out the problem. The vehicle is less than 3 months with only 2600 miles. The Service Advisor at my local dealership told me that there have been several similar cases and that LR cannot seem to diagnose or fix the problem.

SERVICE BRAKES
This vehicle is a 2023 Range Rover . I took it in to have the winter tires removed and the summer tires installed. Range Rover did a vehicle inspection and it showed the brake pad wear on the front as being a #7 and the rear as a #2. The scale is 1 to 10 , Ten being NO wear or new pads. I have the write up from Range Rover and pictures they took . I also have the bad brake pads that look like they are flaking away. The repair cost was $2,459.97. The service technician told us this was his 5th 2023 large Range Rover he has done so far this year. They also mentioned that they never do brake pads on a 1 year old vehicle ,let alone 5 vehicles so far this year. As expected i called Range Rover support line with NO answers or resolutions. The majority of my wife's travels in this vehicle have my children with her . Not sure if you can notify Range Rover of this issue, I understand they are a foreign company. Thank you for any help you can provide. [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

POWER TRAIN
Was on the highway and there was a rumbling noise coming from under the car. It would only happen at highway speeds. (The dealer said this was normal and happened when he trest drive another car of the same model.) When driving at parking lot speeds and making sharp turns, the car would have a shudder and grinding noise. The car has 5,700 miles, and after taking it to the dealership, they said it needs a new transfer case. When they lifted the car, the part connecting the transfer case to the drivetrain was loose and would move when touched. And there is no ETA on the part. Now the car is undrivable, and there is no telling when it will be again.

BACK OVER PREVENTION: WARNINGS

UNKNOWN OR OTHER, BACK OVER PREVENTION: WARNINGS
The vehicle does not go into gear in timely way..I put car in reverse and occasionally it stays in drive. Very dangerous to assume your car is backing up but goes forward. It happened to my son also when driving my car. Seems like there is lag time between shifting gears and vehicle actually going into gear. I just spoke to three other owners of my make, year and model of car and they said they have had same issues.

The Range Rover dash displays that the door is open but it is not. When the Range Rover comes to a stop the Range Rover does not move. It has occurred 10 times, this last time it stopped traffic at an intersection and Bexar County Sheriff’s had to arrive at scene. I have Video of what happens each time it comes to a stop.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
Left rear tail lamp not illuminating. Investigation: Verified connection to find wire cut and corroded, wire was touching a plastic bracket on the vehicle because the trim that covers the harness had a foam on it and that was pushing the tail lamp harness onto the bracket causing it to rub. Then with time water made it's way in and corroded/cut the wire.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
We purchased the vehicle new January 2023 and we drove for a couple of months without any issue, suddenly after filling the gas tank on Monday 4/10/2023 we noticed that the gas gauge dropped significantly after about an hour of drive time, later that evening the garage began smelling like gas through out the night without any leaks. The next day taking kids to school the smell was very bad in the car that we were all light headed during the 30 minutes drive time and had to pull over to inspect the vehicle for fuel leaks and could not observe any leaks. We rolled the windows down in cold weather and proceeded with the drive. We took it to Landrover Denver in Littleton Colorado on 04/13/23, since then they have been struggling as well to find why it is smelling as bad as it is and they contacted Landrover USA without any luck, I contacted Landrover USA multiple times and they claim they aren’t aware of any of such issues with their vehicles and couldn’t be of help. I emphasized the safety concerns especially with all of our health, they insisted that they are not aware of any of such issues with the vehicles.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
Was on steep driveway, put car in park and kept it running. Got out - left drivers side door open. Went to car in front of me to direct it more forward (to turn around), and once car in front of mine moved out of front, my car slammed on gas and sideswiped her car and ran through a fence, almost going off a cliff. My car went into drive once the cameras detected no car in front!
