Defect Description:
ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
The timing chain went out, and it is a common problem with this same make and model of vehicle, and no recall has been issued. My safety was at risk because my car showed no warnings of breaking down, it was well maintained, and there was a manufacturing error that caused me to suddenly lose all power on a highway. I couldn’t make it to a safe area to pull over, and was stuck on the side of the highway for hours not understand why my car was not running

SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
At just a little over 58k miles the vehicle started making metal noises while driving. The vehicle will jump into neutral while driving and this was very scary! There are no warning lights or any error codes. This was checked and confirmed by a LandRover dealership in Roanoke- no fault codes. I didnt drive for another few months. Next drive was from VA to KY and the vehicle did the same thing on the highway, I was able to pull over after having a panic attack and almost being hit by other vehicles that were moving! I didnt drive it for another few months. Drove the vehicle 3 weeks ago, the noises and the shift in neutral happened again and I had to pull off the side of the road. This time gearbox fault light came on. This is very scary, this vehicle should be high tech enough to show error codes or warning lights and absolutley nothing from diagnostic check. Now, I am nowhere close to a land rover dealership, called the manufacturer several times about recalls and or problems. I was brushed off and told there is nothing they can do. This is not only frustrating: This is dangerous! I had my family in this car and we could have been in a terrible accident due to no warning. The local mechanic still shows no stored error codes or issues. This is a danger and I have found this same issue in many forums. This should be a recall and the manufacturer should stand behind their work.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
A few months ago, started smelling faint fuel, the smell gradually increased. Took it to Land Rover dealership was told there was a problem with fuel tank fiange and gasket that sits on top of the gas tank. Was advised there was a recall for the same problem on other models but not mine. Due to the nature of potential hazard (fire, explosion), I wanted to make sure this was documented.

ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
Driving our car down the road. No engine lights or warnings and the engine powered down and the car came to a complete stop. Vehicle was a 2017 certified pre-owned which we have had for about three years. It has 61k miles and has always been serviced by the local land rover dealership. Vehicle was serviced by the landrover dealership two months prior to this incident and there was no recommended service for the engine. Towed the vehicle to the Land Rover dealership. They found the timing chain broke/came loose and now saying the engine is completely destroyed and we have to buy a new engine. Looking online there are multiple complaints and forums about timing chain issues and them causing complete engine failures. Seems like this is a factory defect that is not being addressed.

SUSPENSION
Potential Consequences:
The contact owned a 2017 Land Rover Ranger Rover. The contact stated that while driving at 45 MPH, she heard an abnormal clicking sound emanating from underneath the vehicle, after which the vehicle buckled to the right. As a result, the contact briefly lost control of the vehicle and was only able to come to a complete stop after colliding with the curb. After a visual inspection of the vehicle, the contact observed that the front passenger side suspension was detached. The air bags did not deploy. No warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic, who determined that the front passenger side control arm had detached, asserting that the failure occurred due to the contact possibly driving over a pothole, which the contact disputed. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact's insurance provider deemed the vehicle a total loss. After investigating the failure, the contact related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 16V889000 (Suspension), but the VIN was not included. A police report was not filed, and no injuries were reported. The manufacturer was notified of the failure but referred the contact to the NHTSA hotline for assistance. The failure mileage was 31,000.

VISIBILITY/WIPER
Potential Consequences:
About a month or so ago, it was raining and I got into my car to drive home from work. I only live about 1.5 miles down the road from my residence and this is the distance I drive (to and from) most days unless I have errands. I noticed I felt a drop of water on the top of my pant leg (mid thigh) but just thought it was where I was getting in the car and scraped against something. As we have had more rain the last couple of weeks, gradually I have noticed drops of water running (interior) down the windshield. Last week it started dropping pretty badly on my clothes and steering wheel so I immediately started wiping it up so that it didn't get inside the electronics. I also purchased a Damp Rid to put in the car until I can get it repaired. Other than driving it back and forth to work, to run errands around town and periodically to see my mother (who lives 30 miles away), the car is garage kept all other times. We don't even take it on vacation as we use my husband's vehicle. I have never had this problem before so I started researching online and noticed there were others having the same problem with Land Rover vehicles. In their experience, they contacted their local Land Rover dealer to take a look at the windshield seal and said it was just wear and tear. I realize my vehicle is now 7 years old (I purchased it in 2020 with 51K miles and it is a 2017 model and just rolled over to 64K miles) but it seems that it has happened too many times to others for it not to be a common denominator. I have not taken pictures but will be glad to submit them when I do. Was going to contact my insurance and local windshield repair company today as we do not have a local Land Rover dealer.

I have never had this problem before so I started researching online and noticed there were others having the same problem with Land Rover vehicles. In their experience, they contacted their local Land Rover dealer to take a look at the windshield seal and said it was just wear and tear. I realize my vehicle is now 7 years old (I purchased it in 2020 with 51K miles and it is a 2017 model and just rolled over to 64K miles) but it seems that it has happened too many times to others for it not to be a common denominator. I have not taken pictures but will be glad to submit them when I do. Was going to contact my insurance and local windshield repair company today as we do not have a local Land Rover dealer.

Land Rover
Defect Description:
ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
My SUV currently has 55K miles. The pin came out of the timing chain and the car stopped on a major bridge. The dealership charged me $4,294.24 to fix the vehicle. I thought this was surprising because cars should not have issues with the timing chain this early and below 100K miles. I did a search on the internet and found out there is a petition currently going on right now on change.gov. [XXX] The petition says "Make Jaguar Land Rover recall vehicles with potential timing chain issues." There are thousands of people like me who are experiencing this same issue and the dealerships are charging them thousands of dollars to fix the timing chain when it should actually be a "recall." Please investigate this issue with Jaguar Land Rover and make the issue with the timing chain a major recall. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Defect Description:
FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
Around June of this year, my engine light came on. I took it to my technician, who cleared the code. After an accident on 7/4/23, and after picking the car up from being repaired, the engine light came on again. It is a code that indicates there is a "Cracked or faulty turbo charger". Extensive research has shown this to be a manufacturing defect, which can cause catastrophic failure. The manufacturer, Tata Motors is well aware of this problem and has been since 2011, yet they continued to build cars with this defect. The manifold that the turbo charger is attached to at the back of this transverse engine, has a weld across the entire top. A weld in a manifold of any kind is inappropriate and dangerous. The only option is to have a $6,000 repair done. This is unacceptable and I demand that Tata Motors issue a recall for the years affected.
