NHTSA complaint #11758592 — an unverified report by a vehicle owner.
SUSPENSION
The contact owns a 2014 Land Rover Range Rover Sport. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the message "Suspension Fault" was displayed. The vehicle started swaying, and hydraulic fluid was leaking onto the ground. The vehicle was towed to the dealer, and it was determined that the hydraulic system had failed due to corroded hydraulic lines caused by the colder climates. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 70,000.

SUSPENSION
I am writing to formally escalate my concerns regarding an open, unresolved safety recall on my vehicle. I have repeatedly reached out to the manufacturer to get this issue fixed, but I continue to receive nothing but the runaround. According to official safety notices and documentation, this recall involves a critical, high-risk defect. Because this issue is so serious, I am now driving in constant fear, and I completely refuse to take my car on any long-distance trips due to legitimate safety concerns. It is entirely unacceptable that a known, hazardous defect is being left unaddressed. I need an immediate, definitive answer on the exact steps required to get this resolved. Furthermore, because the vehicle is currently unsafe for extended travel, I need to know what immediate accommodations—such as a complimentary loaner vehicle or rental—will be provided while you arrange for a priority repair. I expect a prompt response with a concrete solution.

My insurance company notified me about Recall Campaign D019, and according to official NHTSA guidelines, where cracks are found, the front suspension knuckle must be replaced immediately at no charge. The dealership's local staff professionally inspected my vehicle and confirmed that the component is actively cracking. However, Land Rover Corporate has failed to provide a timely remedy for this specific recall, leaving me to drive an unsafe vehicle with a fractured suspension while claiming the repair procedure hasn't been released. This completely contradicts the manufacturer's safety obligations mandated by the NHTSA.

The contact owns a 2015 Land Rover Range Rover. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V-514000 (Steering); however, the part for the repairs was unavailable. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable timeframe for the remedy to be available. The contact stated that their husband informed them, and a certified mechanic inspected the vehicle after receiving the recall and noticed that the suspension knuckle had fractured. The vehicle had not been driven. The failure had occurred before and had been repaired at the expense of the contact. The dealer was contacted, and it was confirmed that the previous repairs were completed correctly and no cause for the failure occurring again was identified. After the failure occurred again and the recall notice was received by another dealer, Land Rover Lakeland, 2550 Interstate Dr, Lakeland, FL 33805, was contacted, and it was confirmed that there was no remedy. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue and confirmed the remedy was not available, and therefore, reimbursement could not be provided till there was a remedy. The failure mileage was approximately 109,000.
NHTSA complaint #11737521 — an unverified report by a vehicle owner.
SUSPENSION
My 2017 Land Rover Range Rover Sport is subject to NHTSA Recall 25V-514 (Manufacturer Recall D019), issued August 8, 2025, which remains unresolved as of today. The recall concerns a front suspension upper knuckle joint that may develop a crack, potentially leading to detachment of the upper suspension arm and loss of vehicle control. Despite the recall being issued approximately nine months ago, the remedy is listed as "not yet available." The dealer has confirmed no fix or inspection appointment can be completed at this time. No repair timeline has been communicated by Jaguar Land Rover North America. Because this recall involves a potential loss of vehicle controllability and crash risk, the vehicle has been taken out of service and cannot be safely operated. The manufacturer has failed to provide parts or a remedy within a reasonable timeframe, leaving the owner without the use of a drivable vehicle. This complaint is filed to document the manufacturer's failure to make a remedy available for a safety-critical open recall and to request federal oversight of the resolution timeline for Recall 25V-514.

I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding the failure of Land Rover and its authorized dealership network to complete Safety Recall D019 involving the front suspension knuckle crack on my 2015 Range Rover Sport. I received the official recall notice in September 2025. The recall concerns a serious safety defect involving the front suspension system, which presents a substantial risk of loss of vehicle control, crash, injury, or worse. Despite the seriousness of this defect and the passage of many months, the required repair has still not been completed. Since receiving the notice, I have repeatedly contacted the dealership from which I purchased the vehicle, as well as representatives associated with the manufacturer, seeking to schedule the repair. Each time, I have been met with delays, conflicting information, and excuses regarding parts availability. Most recently, I was informed that “tariffs” are allegedly responsible for the inability to provide the replacement parts. This explanation is unacceptable. Federal safety recalls are intended to protect consumers from dangerous defects, and manufacturers have a legal obligation to provide timely remedies once a recall has been issued. It is unreasonable and unsafe for consumers to continue operating vehicles subject to a known suspension defect for months without access to the necessary repair. I am requesting that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigate the ongoing delays associated with Recall D019 and determine whether Land Rover is meeting its obligations under federal motor vehicle safety laws. I also ask that appropriate enforcement action be considered as the manufacturer has to provide an adequate and timely remedy to affected vehicle owners. This situation has caused significant frustration and concern as this i my families only vehicle. No vehicle owner should be left indefinitely waiting for repairs related to a serious safety recall.

The steering wheel locks during left turns and then suddenly releases, while the onboard computer has generated a suspension error code and automatically lowered the vehicle for safety.
NHTSA complaint #11734411 — an unverified report by a vehicle owner.
SUSPENSION
While driving, the steering begins to bind and resist when turning, especially to the left. The wheel will “catch” and then suddenly release, causing a jerking motion and loss of smooth steering control. This creates a serious safety concern because the steering does not respond consistently. During the same event, the air suspension system lowered the vehicle into a safety mode without driver input. The suspension would not raise back up, and the dashboard displayed suspension warnings. The vehicle lowered itself immediately after the steering bind occurred. These symptoms match the same failure pattern described in the recall for 2014–2017 Range Rover and Range Rover Sport models involving front suspension/steering knuckle issues and steering safety concerns. Even though my 2013 model year is not included in the recall, it is experiencing the same steering binding and suspension safety‑mode behavior. This issue creates a risk of loss of steering control and unsafe vehicle handling. I am requesting that NHTSA investigate whether the recall should be expanded to include the 2013 model year.

Filing a complaint about lack of remedy for NHTSA Recall Number 25V-514, manufacture recall number D019. I planned to put this car on Turo to rent, and I cannot list it if it has an active recall. It’s a financial strain for me, and I would greatly appreciate a fix.

NHTSA complaint #11725205 — an unverified report by a vehicle owner.
SUSPENSION
I am filing a complaint regarding an unresolved safety recall affecting my 2016 Range Rover Sport TDV6, VIN: [XXX] . This vehicle is subject to Recall D019 (NHTSA Recall 25V-514). Despite the recall being issued, I have contacted the dealership multiple times and have repeatedly been told that the remedy or required parts are not yet available. There has been no clear timeline provided for when the repair will be available. Both the front and rear components associated with this recall on my vehicle appear visibly defective and concerning. This creates a significant safety concern for me as the operator of the vehicle. I rely on this vehicle daily and should not be forced to continue driving a vehicle with known defective safety-related components while waiting indefinitely for the manufacturer to supply parts. A safety recall should include a prompt and effective remedy. The ongoing delay in making repair parts available places vehicle owners and the public at risk and undermines the purpose of issuing a safety recall. I respectfully request that this matter be investigated and that the manufacturer be required to provide a timely repair remedy. Owners should not be left operating vehicles with known safety defects due to delays in recall implementation.

NHTSA complaint #11721262 — an unverified report by a vehicle owner.
SUSPENSION
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.
