Lane departure

1 report
“What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? The Lane Keep Assist (LKA) system on my 2023 Range Rover Velar P250 has lost its active steering intervention capability following one or more Software Over The Air (SOTA) updates. The system no longer applies corrective steering torque to keep the vehicle within lane markings. The vehicle is available for inspection upon request. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? Lane Keep Assist was a functional active safety system at the time of purchase, applying steering corrections to prevent unintended lane departure. That active intervention has been removed or disabled through a software update without my knowledge or consent. The vehicle now drifts across lane lines at highway speeds with no corrective action from the system. This increases the risk of a lane departure collision, particularly during momentary driver inattention — the exact scenario this system is designed to protect against. I was not notified that this safety capability would be altered or removed. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service…”
