This page covers 12 recalls and 20 owner complaints for the 2023 Land Rover Range Rover.
Brake complaints dominate what 2023 Range Rover owners report, with several describing premature wear of rear brake pads and rotors, in some cases repeating after replacement. Owners also report sudden and significant power loss while driving, with a few describing the vehicle becoming unable to accelerate, steer, or brake before they could pull over. Electrical system complaints follow a similar pattern: complete power loss requiring a tow, followed by dealer visits involving software updates or battery replacement. A couple of reports mention warning lights returning after service, including messages about steering assist and traction control. One owner reports the transmission becoming stuck in park after a loss of motive power, with the failure occurring more than once.

By System
The 2023 Land Rover Range Rover has 12 recalls, the most serious being multiple fire risks: engine oil leaks from a blocked oil channel or an improperly installed turbo drain pipe gasket, and on PHEV models, a high-voltage battery bolt that can spark and overheat.
A fourth fire-adjacent concern involves the DC-to-DC converter on mild-hybrid variants, which can fail and cut drive power to the wheels without warning. On the occupant safety side, seven-seat models may have an insufficiently welded second-row left seat frame that fails to hold the occupant in place during hard braking or a crash. The driver's airbag clockspring connector can corrode and prevent the airbag from deploying when needed, reducing crash protection. There is also an armrest compartment latch in the second row that can fail in a crash, allowing stored items to fly forward and strike occupants.
Two separate recalls address the panoramic sunroof side trim, which can detach from the roofline and become a hazard for other drivers on the road. The rearview camera can let water in, causing the backup image to appear distorted or go dark entirely, leaving the driver without rear visibility. The rear taillight circuit link can fail and take out the taillights, brake lights, and turn signals all at once, making the vehicle invisible to traffic behind it. A convex mirror glass was fitted to the driver's door mirror on certain vehicles in place of the required flat glass, which distorts distance perception and makes following vehicles appear farther away than they are.
