2020 Land Rover Range Rover Sport problems

“My vehicle started showing a battery high voltage error light and was coming on and off at random times while driving. I reported this to the JLR dealership and they scheduled an appointment to have it serviced. Even though the vehicle was showing signs of battery issues which was an active known recall, they never checked it or mentioned it. They advised that I needed a main battery which cost me almost $1,000. As soon as I cranked the vehicle to leave, the light came on again. I went back inside to advise that it wasn’t the main battery because the light is still on. They advised that their loaner fleet was low and said it was safe to drive. They were going to schedule a second service the following week. I emailed them the next morning to advise that I was traveling for work at the end of the week and did not feel safe driving that vehicle. They called me right after to advise that I should not worry, it was probably the BMS reset and it was in fact safe to drive. I left that Sunday headed out of town. One and half hours into the drive the car first threw an electrical fault detection warning. I was driving over 70 mph on a major highway in heavy traffic.…”

“A safety alert keeps coming up when I attempt to break. Have had multiple services done with ongoing issues with inter cooler parts unheard lines and supercharger so much plastic under the hood investigate and help the consumer it’s a ongoing struggle for customers”

“The braking system keeps repeatedly failing. I have numerous times been driving when the braking system locks, leaving the car uncapable of securing a safe stop at any given moment. In 2024, the vehicle was serviced at Landrover Englewood, NJ where I paid for repairs. The same problem yet again emerged causing the risk of potential accident on September 1, 2026 while driving on the local city roadways. The following dashboard error messages came on my screen: "Hill Descent Control not available", "OK to drive with caution Stability control not available," and there was a third (?) message that I did not capture in time. These signs have intermittently popped up on my dash over the past few years and when brought to Mt. Kisco (seller) dealerships attention, was told by the service manager at the time that this was not an issue to be concerned with. The vehicle is currently in the landrover Edison NJ shop again due to the SAME BRAKE FAILURE/ISSUE I EXPERIENCED IN 2024, but yes, is available for inspection upon request. I launched an email back in 2024 (copy is available at your request) regarding this same issue to the landrover dealer and attorney generals…”

“The contact owns a 2020 Land Rover Range Rover Sport. The contact stated that the vehicle was taken to the dealer for routine maintenance. During an inspection, the technician discovered that the fuel tank cover protectors were rusted and the fuel tank was visible. The dealer confirmed that the covers needed to be replaced. The failure mileage was 87,000.”

“Due to the poor underbody shielding on these vehicles, the entire hydraulic system (lines, fitting, pumps, etc) of the Active Cornering Enhancement (ACE) system had severely corroded and must be replaced. If this system fails, you lose your air suspension and makes the car unsafe in turning while driving causing you to lose control over your vehicle. My independent service center quote is for $10,000 (which is cheaper than Land Rover ~$15k). There is an active "suspension sensor failure" that does activate in the car, but this can be bypassed by the driver potentially causing more harm while driving. This issue is consistently the #1 or #2 issues with these Range Rover Sports and other Land Rover vehicles. There is no active recall for this major design flaw and there should be.”

“The contact owns a 2020 Land Rover Range Rover Sport Hybrid. The contact stated that while starting the vehicle, the message “Add Coolant” was displayed. After adding coolant to the coolant reservoir, the message remained illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a service center, where it was diagnosed and determined that coolant was leaking from the pipes and elbows. The contact was informed that the engine needed to be repaired. The mechanic associated the failure with NHTSA Campaign Number: 23V221000 (Engine and Engine Cooling). The manufacturer was made aware of the failure by telephone and referred the contact to the NHTSA Hotline for assistance. The failure mileage was approximately 90,000.”
