FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
My Land Rover is experiencing rusted fuel tank shields. The reason this problem occurs is because of a process called galvanic corrosion. The fuel tank shield is bolted onto an aluminum heat shield, and the pairing of these two different metals accelerates the corrosion. Land Rover has acknowledged this problem.

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

Good morning, Some time ago Land Rover Corporate made me aware of the recall about the suspension failure that can happen without warning, but to date there is no fix and apparently no parts to fix the problem so I am in need of guidance as to what to do, what recourse do I have should this fail as I am driving, etc? I do not have another vehicle to drive in the meantime and given the recall it makes me nervous as most of my driving is at highway speed as I work in multiple locations each day depending on project. What are my next steps to remedy?

Dear NHTSA Safety Division, Please find attached my formal letter regarding an urgent safety concern related to Safety Recall D041 (Front Suspension Knuckle Crack) – NHTSA Recall No. 25V-514, affecting my 2016 Land Rover Range Rover. It has been nearly a year since the initial recall notification, and the defect has now rendered my vehicle unsafe to drive. Despite repeated attempts to seek assistance, I have been advised there is still no remedy available, nor has Jaguar Land Rover provided a temporary vehicle or interim repair. Given the severity of this issue and the growing safety risk to my family, I am urgently requesting NHTSA’s intervention and guidance. - Attached: Urgent_Safety_Concern_Letter_Demetrius_Strong.pdf Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter. Please confirm receipt of this correspondence at your earliest convenience. Sincerely, [XXX] [XXX] [XXX] Email: [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

SUSPENSION, STEERING
Front steering knuckle was cracked, Land Rover hadn’t notified me of any issues. I found the recall online, nearest dealer is 4-5 hours away. Was afraid to drive with cracked part. I replaced steering knuckle on my own out of pocket to keep vehicle safe. Vehicle was not in any accident or injuries. Defect found and fixed before anything could happen. Called Land Rover and they said no resolution for fix and when there was I would receive a letter on how to get it repaired or get reimbursed for repairs I had done to fix. Recall was issued in November of 2024, now August of 2025 still no info from Land Rover and dealer I have been in touch with still has no information either. I purchased parts in mid December of 2024 and had a local repair shop install it on 1-14-2025. Old part was retained as instructed by dealer I have been working with. From my findings in several forums that have members in other countries, they have issued the same recall in Europe and Canada and most vehicles were repaired by being taken into the dealer. Dealer I have been in contact with reported back to me that they had no parts to repair and advised me to get fixed on my own for now.

SUSPENSION
We have had a serious open suspension recall (NHTSA #24V-840 / Land Rover Recall N759) on our 2016 Range Rover for nearly a year now, and still no remedy is available. The recall was issued on November 7, 2024, for a known defect involving the front suspension upper knuckle, which may crack and detach, leading to potential loss of control. Land Rover has acknowledged the danger but continues to delay offering a fix. We received a notice about the recall, but since then have only seen “remedy not yet available” when checking status. We’ve contacted Land Rover directly, but they offer no solution or timeline — just that we have to wait. This is not just a safety concern but is also significantly impacting us financially. We were planning to list this vehicle on Turo for supplemental income, but cannot do so while there is an open recall with no fix in place. The recall is also damaging our ability to sell or trade in the vehicle, as no dealer or platform wants a car with a long-standing unresolved safety defect. We are frustrated, feel ignored, and have no confidence in Land Rover’s commitment to resolving this issue. A safety recall that’s been known for months without resolution is completely unacceptable. We are requesting that NHTSA investigate and require the manufacturer to provide either a fix or an alternative solution.
