This page covers 7 recalls and 20 owner complaints for the 2023 Land Rover Range Rover Sport.
Complaints about the 2023 Range Rover Sport spread across a few systems, with the electrical system and engine generating the most reports. On the electrical side, owners describe sudden fault warnings prompting them to pull over, followed by complete vehicle shutdown, in some cases tied to a failed DC converter or battery that won't hold a charge after restart. Engine complaints include unexpected stalling and loss of power while driving. A separate cluster of reports involves the keyless security system deactivating both smart keys simultaneously while inside a locked vehicle, leaving the car fully inoperable with no way to start it. Steering complaints round out the top systems, though at lower volume. The smart key lockout pattern appears in multiple reports and describes an unusually complete loss of vehicle access, both keys rendered non-functional at the same time, requiring towing or roadside assistance to resolve.

By System
The 2023 Land Rover Range Rover Sport has 7 recalls, the most serious being two separate fire and power risks: an engine oil leak that can ignite near a heat source, and a mild-hybrid system fault that can cause a sudden loss of drive power.
Three recalls affect the rear lighting. Water can get into the right-side tail and tailgate lights and cause the brake, marker, reverse, and turn signal lights to fail. There is also a separate issue where certain vehicles were fitted with incorrect rear taillights that do not illuminate properly, including the brake lights, which can confuse drivers behind. On the structural side, the panoramic sunroof's side finisher trim may not be properly secured and can detach at speed, becoming a road hazard. Rounding out the list, the second-row seat armrest storage latch can fail in a crash, allowing loose objects inside the compartment to strike occupants.
