2017 Land Rover Discovery Owner Complaints

Complaints about the 2017 Land Rover Discovery cluster around two main areas: the engine and windshield-related water intrusion. On the engine side, owners describe coolant loss that returns after dealership repairs, with at least one account of the engine shutting off mid-drive after a sudden low-coolant warning. Timing chain failure causing significant internal engine damage also shows up in the complaints. The windshield pattern is notable because it overlaps into electrical territory, owners consistently report water leaking in from the top or passenger side of the windshield and tracking down into the dash, where it triggers electrical problems including instrument cluster faults, warning lights cycling on, and in some cases the transmission getting stuck in gear while driving.

2017 Land Rover Discovery Recalls

The 2017 Land Rover Discovery has 5 recalls, the most serious being a rear door latch defect that can allow rear passenger doors to swing open while driving, with a secondary failure where the instrument cluster warning light may not alert the driver that a door is unlatched.

The fuel system also has a recall: the fuel gauge can incorrectly read low and trigger the warning light even when the tank has adequate fuel. If a driver responds by pulling over, or if the engine stalls based on the false reading, power brake assist and drive power can both be lost. Two related recalls cover trailer lighting: when towing with daytime running lights active, the trailer lights may fail to illuminate, meaning vehicles behind the trailer cannot see brake signals or recognize that a trailer is present.
