Summary
The Land Rover Range Rover has 91 recalls spanning 1990 through 2026, with the most serious recent issue affecting 2024 models where the transmission can drop into neutral unexpectedly, cutting drive power and raising the risk of a crash.
The 2024 model year also has a recall for body panels that may not be bonded properly, which reduces structural protection in a crash, and another for oil cooler hoses that can work loose and drip oil onto the road. On the 2025 model, the second-row center seat belt buckle can fail to latch, leaving an occupant unrestrained in a crash. The 2023 model year has a panoramic sunroof side trim that can detach and become a road hazard, a recall covering a turbo oil drain gasket that can leak and start a fire, and a high-voltage battery bolt on the plug-in hybrid version that can allow sparking and overheating. Rearview cameras on 2022-2023 vehicles can fill with water and fail to display an image while reversing, and the 2022-2023 seven-seat configuration has a second-row left seat frame that may be insufficiently welded and can fail to hold an occupant in a crash. Tail lamp wiring and rear light assemblies on 2022-2023 models can also fail, leaving brake lights and turn signals dark.
The 2019 model has a crankshaft pulley bolt that can crack and cause sudden engine failure. On 2018 models, the automatic emergency braking system can become inoperative without warning the driver. Backup cameras on 2018-2022 vehicles equipped with the Surround Camera System can fail to display while reversing.
Going further back, 2016 models have a cluster of door latch issues where the keyless latch mechanism can leave doors appearing closed but unlatched, opening while driving; prior repair attempts under earlier recalls did not fully resolve the problem in some cases. The 2016 model also had a passenger frontal airbag inflator initiator that could fail to fire in a crash, and a driver seat belt that could fail to lock up under hard braking. The 2014-2017 range has front suspension upper knuckle joints that can crack and allow the suspension arm to detach, causing loss of handling. The 2014-2015 passenger seat sensor could lose communication with the restraints module and disable the front passenger airbag.
From 2007-2012, the Takata passenger frontal airbag inflators are the dominant concern: long-term humidity and heat degrade the propellant, and in the worst cases the inflator can rupture and send metal fragments into the cabin. This affects 2007-2012 models broadly, with geographic priority given to high-humidity regions. The 2006-2012 front flexible brake hoses can rupture and cause brake fluid loss, extending stopping distances. The 2006 model also has a transmission parking pawl guide plate that can prevent the transmission from fully engaging Park, risking a rollaway.
The 2003-2005 front differential coupling can wear its splines through misalignment, eventually shearing and causing a sudden loss of drive. The 2000 model year had brake caliper mounting bolts that could be loose or missing, risking caliper separation and wheel lockup. The 1999 model has multiple underhood fire risks from a throttle body heater gasket that can leak coolant onto hot engine surfaces, and transmission water contamination that can lead to unintended vehicle movement.
