ENGINE, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Engine complete shuts down when idling (I.e., at stop lights) in extreme temperatures. Requires vehicle to be turned off, wait a minute or two, restart vehicle. Has happened 4 times at outdoor temperatures of 110-120 degrees. Dealership service claims that they cannot replicate the problem and states that there is nothing in the computer log to show any errors. So far this has not happened on a highway, only local streets.

ENGINE, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
This happens several times (more than 10) over a period of 6 months. The car randomly, while driving states "select gear to maneuver". This is VERY dangerous as the car just randomly turns off. It does not matter if it is in a middle of a turn, going fast, or coming to a stop. I did my own research, and found several other people with same make and model having this problem. https://www.rangerovers.net/threads/2020-evoque-stalling-when-coming-to-a-stop.341701/ Nobody, is helping and I cannot think of a more serious safety issue than this!. Get landrover to recall and fix this issue ASAP! This puts me and my family at risk. Along with every other motorist and pedestrian in the streets. Including school children crossing the street.

ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
SINCE PAST FEW MONTHS I AM EXPERIENCING FREQUENT STALLING IN MY CAR. WHEN CAR IS AT THE TRAFFIC LIGHT AND SOMETIMES DURING TURNING AT THE CORNER, IT JUST STOPS RESPONDING TO PEDDLE AND I HAVE TO RESTART THE ENGINE AND SELECT GEAR AGAIN TO MOVE IT. DURING THE RECENT SNOWSTORMS, IT ONCE STALED AND STARTED SLIDING BACKWARDS AS ENGINE STALLED AND TRANSMISSION STOPPED WORKING ON TRACTION. I HAD TO QUICKLY RESTART THE ENGINE AND REGAIN THE CONTROL TO GET AWAY WITH THIS SITUATION. I THINK THIS SITUATION IS VERY DANGEROUS ON THE ROAD AND COULD LEAD TO FATAL ACCIDENT SOME DAY. I AM PUTTING ROUGH DATE OF 1ST MARCH AS I DO NOT KNOW WHEN WAS IT STARTED EXACTLY BUT ITS BEEN COUPLE OF MONTHS I AM HAVING THIS ISSUE.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, VISIBILITY/WIPER, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
A FEW MONTHS AGO, A MESSAGE OF "NO FAULT SUSPENSION DETECTED, DRIVE WITH CAUTION" APPEARED ON OUR DASH. BEFORE THEN WE WERE GETTING A MESSAGE OF LOW COOLANT. I THOUGHT THIS WAS WEIRD BECAUSE WE HAD THE CAR FOR ONLY A LITTLE OVER A YEAR. WE TOOK IT TO OUR DEALER AND WE WERE TOLD THAT THERE IS NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT. WE SCHEDULED A MAINTENANCE APPT TO HAVE THE SOFTWARE UPDATED. ALSO OUR CAR WOULDN'T START, I HAD TO PLACE MY KEY FOB UNDER THE STEERING WHEEL AS INDICATED ON THE DASH. I TOLD THE DEALER THIS TOO AND I WAS TOLD IT WAS A BATTERY THAT NEEDED TO BE CHANGED, OR WE NEED TO USE BOTH KEY FOBS INTERMITTENTLY. THEN YESTERDAY, WERE STOPPED AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT, THE CAR JUST SHUT OFF AND THE WIPERS WENT ON BY ITSELF. MY HUSBAND STARTED THE CAR UP AND WE DROVE OFF WHEN THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN. WE STOPPED AT A PLACE TO PICK UP SOME FOOD AND SHUT THE CAR OFF. CAME BACK INTO THE CAR AND STARTED IT UP AGAIN. NO PROBLEMS THERE. BUT AS WE DROVE A FEW MILES AND CAME TO A STOP LIGHT AT A MAJOR INTERSECTION, THE CAR STALLED AND EVERYTHING SHUT OFF AGAIN. WE TRIED TO START IT UP AGAIN AND NOTHING. A MESSAGE CAME ON THAT SAID FORWARD ALERT NOT TO DRIVE OVER 50MPH. THEN A GEAR BOX SHOWED ON THE DASH SAYING SOMETHING ABOUT THE GEAR BOX. I CAN'T REMEMBER BECAUSE I WAS IN SO MUCH PANIC WITH THE HEAVY TRAFFIC. WE COULDN'T PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL TO MOVE IT OUT OF THE WAY. LUCKILY THE FIRE TRUCK AND FIREFIGHTERS HAPPENED TO BE DRIVING BY. THEY WERE ABLE TO DIRECT TRAFFIC UNTIL THE POLICE AND THE TOW TRUCK CAME. OUR DEALER HERE WAS NOT OPEN OVER THE WEEKEND SO WE HAD TO HAVE OUR CAR TOWED HOME. IT WAS THEN MAKING A CLICKING NOISE AS WE TRIED TO START IT. THEN ALL THE LIGHTS ON THE DASH WENT OUT. IT FELT HARD TO STEP ON THE BRAKE AND TO MOVE THE STEERING WHEEL WHEN WE TRIED TO START THE CAR AGAIN.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I ENTERED MY VEHICLE AND WHEN I TURNED IT ON, I NOTICED A WARNING MESSAGE ON MY DASH THAT SAID 'GEARBOX FAULT DETECTED'. I PUT THE CAR IN DRIVE AND IT LAGGED A LITTLE, BUT I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE IT. I DROVE ABOUT TWO BLOCKS FROM MY HOME BEFORE THE CAR STARTED TO REV UP (THE RPM GAUGE WENT UP) AND THEN SLOW DOWN. I PULLED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I THEN TURNED AROUND TO GO BACK TO MY HOME BECAUSE I DIDN'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING. WHEN TURNING THE CAR AROUND, I ATTEMPTED TO DO A THREE POINT TURN. I PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE, IT BEGAN TO REV UP AGAIN AND THE CAR STALLED. I WAITED A FEW SECONDS AND THE CAR STARTED TO REVERSE. THEN I PUT IT IN DRIVE. IT DID THE SAME THING...REV UP AND THEN STALLED. I WAITED A FEW SECONDS AGAIN AND THEN THE CAR STARTED TO MOVE FORWARD. I WAS ABLE TO GET IT BACK TO MY HOME. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND EXPLAINED WHAT HAPPENED. THEY AGREED IT WAS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE AND RECOMMENDED I GET A TOW TO THE DEALERSHIP, WHICH I DID.

FRONT CONTROLLER ARMS REPLACED DUE TO NOISE WHEN TURNING STEERING WHEEL. PROBLEM PERSISTED AND 2ND REPAIR WAS TO DRAIN HYDRAULIC FLUID FROM CA BUSHINGS AS A TEMPORARY FIX.NOW LAND ROVER IS STATING THAT DRAINING THE FLUID IS THE PERMANENT FIX, EVEN THOUGH CAR WAS DESIGNED WITH BUSHING FLUID. WE ARE AFRAID TO TAKE THE CAR ON LONG TRIPS OF OFF ROAD AND BE STRANDED SOMEWHERE.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
IT STALLS AT STOP SIGNS AND STOP LIGHTS. THIS IS NOT THE ECO START-STOP FEATURE. IT DOES HAPPEN BOTH WITH THAT FEATURE ON AND OFF. THIS IS AN ELECTRICAL FAILURE. WHEN IT STALLS ALL THE COMPUTERS SHUT DOWN, CLIMATE CONTROL, ELECTRONIC SCREENS, STEREO, AND OCCASIONALLY THE SEATS MOVE BACK ALL THE WAY, MAKING IT NEAR IMPOSSIBLE TO REACH THE START-STOP BUTTON TO RESTART THE CAR. IT SOMETIMES HAPPENS WHEN YOU FIRST COME TO A STOP, AND OTHER TIMES RIGHT AFTER YOU HIT THE ACCELERATOR AND START TO ROLL INTO THE INTERSECTION. THE TECHNICIANS HAVE BEEN ABLE TO RECREATE THIS, AND HAVE ALSO BEEN IN THE CAR WITH US WHEN IT HAPPENED. THIS HAS EASILY HAPPENED MORE THAN 20 TIMES IN 3 WEEKS.
