2014 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque problems

“The contact owns a 2014 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque. The contact stated while driving at approximately 45 MPH, the accelerator pedal was depressed; however, the vehicle accelerated rapidly and was shifting rapidly. Additionally, the contact stated that the turbo charger was engaging independently, and the check engine warning light was illuminated. Additionally, the contact stated that the active suspension and shock absorbers were not responding when the contact drove over dips in the road or while turning left or right. The contact stated no warning light was illuminated for the suspension. The contact had taken the vehicle to an independent mechanic, where it was diagnosed and determined that the turbo charger and the suspension needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 120,000.”

“My car shifts into neutral while I’m driving. This is the same issue that I see recalls for but it’s stating that my car is not effected. Also, the rear suspension makes a loud grinding noise for no reason. It’s weird because other 2014 Land Rovers have these exact same recall warnings and my vin number comes up clear on the internet. This vehicle only has 45k miles on it.”

“Land Rover has been made aware through several complaints that there is a widespread issue with their vehicles that requires recall. Thousands of customers have reported issues in their vehicles with cylinder 4 cracked pistons resulting in engine failure. Land Rover refuses to address the issue in their vehicles causing this malfunction and costly vehicle repair. Land Rover needs to issue a recall to address and rectify this issue in their vehicles as this issue results in the vehicle losing speed and coming to a complete halt with no warning from the vehicle. The vehicle does not display any warnings even if dangerously low on oil - no warning sign will display. This could result in death of multiple people and cause crashes. It is highly dangerous and needs to be addressed by Land Rover with urgency.”

“Driver side steering upper knuckle cracked from the joint and completely separated. This caused the wheel to separate at 35 mph. This would’ve resulted in catastrophic loss of the vehicle had i still been on the highway which i was prior going 65+ mph. Extremely dangerous scenario. I am aware of this issue per other owners and had been inspecting this specific part. I have lapsed a few months inspecting and concluded that said crack may have started forming only within the past few months. The failure point was 57k miles.”

“MY CAR DID NOT TELL ME WHAT THE RECALL WAS, AND IT WAS NOT REPAIRED SUCCESSFULLY, BUT MY MAIN DRIVING DOOR COULD NOT BE UNLOCKED AND LOCKED AUTOMATICALLY; ANOTHER FAULT IS THAT THERE IS ALWAYS A LOUD FRICTION SOUND WHILE DRIVING, WHICH HAS NOT BEEN RESOLVED FOR ME; THERE IS ALSO THE FEELING THAT THE LOWER HALF OF THE DOOR IS ABOUT TO FALL OFF, LIKE A BROKEN CAR; BECAUSE OF THE ABOVE FAULTS, MY CAR WAS BASICALLY PARKED AT HOME.”

“The side/front airbags wire harness system are in and under the driver/or passenger seat and become disconnected when you move the seats, therefore making it so the side and front airbags won’t work. This is said to be a known issue says the dealership but not covered under any circumstances even though they detailed my car after having for two months trying to fix my brakes with no airbag issues and now I have this airbag light on and issue with my airbags. But it’s also a known safety issue flaw I was told by the manager at the mission viejo ca dealership ! Unacceptable!”
