Owner complaints31

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Owners of the 2022 Land Rover Range Rover Sport frequently report issues with the DC/DC converter, which often fails and leads to significant electrical malfunctions. Symptoms described include warning lights indicating an electrical fault, complete vehicle shutdowns, loss of power steering, and inability to accelerate. Many complaints note that these issues occur without warning, often while driving, posing potential safety risks such as vehicle immobilization in traffic or intersections. The problems are reported at various mileage points, with some owners experiencing failures as early as 18,000 miles. The DC/DC converter is often backordered, leaving vehicles immobile for extended periods. Additionally, some owners mention problems with the vehicle's display systems, such as malfunctioning backup cameras and screen failures. These patterns suggest significant electrical system reliability issues that potential buyers should be aware of.

Severity signals: 1 crash, 0 fire, 1 injury reports

Owner complaints13

VISIBILITY/WIPER

Owners report recurring issues with the 2022 Land Rover Range Rover Sport's windshield spontaneously cracking without any apparent impact. Complaints frequently mention cracks originating from various points such as the top center or lower edges, often spreading significantly across the windshield. Symptoms typically arise in vehicles with relatively low mileage, sometimes within weeks of ownership, and can occur during stationary periods, while washing, or in hot weather conditions. While no crashes or injuries are reported, the cracks often obstruct the driver's view, potentially impacting safety. This pattern of spontaneous windshield cracking may be a consideration for potential buyers evaluating the vehicle's reliability.

Owner complaints11

POWER TRAIN

Owners report several recurring issues with the 2022 Land Rover Range Rover Sport's power train. Many complaints involve the vehicle unexpectedly shifting into neutral, often at stoplights or while driving, which requires restarting the car to regain control. This issue is frequently noted at low mileage, sometimes as early as 6,000 miles. Additionally, some owners describe coolant leaks and burning smells, with one instance involving a fire risk under the hood. These problems can lead to sudden power loss or stalling, posing potential safety hazards, especially in traffic or at highway speeds.

Severity signals: 0 crash, 1 fire, 0 injury reports

Owner complaints9

UNKNOWN OR OTHER

Owners of the 2022 Land Rover Range Rover Sport report issues primarily related to windshield integrity and roof molding. Multiple complaints describe windshields cracking spontaneously without any apparent impact, often citing similar patterns and locations of cracks, suggesting a potential design flaw. These windshield issues are reported shortly after purchase, with some owners experiencing multiple occurrences within a few months. Additionally, a roof molding strip detachment is noted, posing a risk to other drivers on the freeway. These issues could have safety implications, particularly concerning windshield strength in rollovers or accidents.

Owner complaints7

EXTERIOR LIGHTING

Owners report frequent issues with the daytime running lights (DRLs) on the 2022 Land Rover Range Rover Sport, with multiple complaints noting failure of the LED DRLs within the first 28,000 miles. Symptoms include the DRLs burning out or failing entirely, necessitating costly headlight replacements, often quoted between $3,000 to $5,000, as the only available fix. There is a noted absence of dashboard warnings or alerts indicating this failure, which owners suggest impacts vehicle visibility and safety. Additionally, one complaint describes rear taillights extinguishing when exposed to bright light, requiring a vehicle power cycle to restore functionality. These issues are commonly reported online, and some owners reference a backlog in headlamp replacements, indicating a widespread problem.

Owner complaints5

STEERING

Owners report issues with the steering system of the 2022 Land Rover Range Rover Sport, with several complaints mentioning power steering failure upon starting the vehicle after it has been unused for several hours. Symptoms frequently include unresponsive steering, inability to move the steering wheel, and a "lane assist not available" message on the display. Some owners also describe the vehicle unexpectedly switching from drive to neutral while in motion, with one owner noting this occurred multiple times over a few months. These issues typically occur soon after purchase, within the first few months of ownership. Safety concerns are noted, as owners express worry about potential steering failure while driving, though no crashes or injuries are reported.

Owner complaints4

ENGINE

Owners of the 2022 Land Rover Range Rover Sport report engine-related issues primarily involving unexpected engine shutdowns while driving. Complaints frequently mention the vehicle turning off abruptly at speeds ranging from 50 to 60 mph, often without any warning indicators prior to failure. One owner describes a drive belt explosion at approximately 7,151 miles, linked to a faulty tensioner, which also led to coolant loss and multiple warning lights. Safety implications are notable, as sudden engine failures occur in traffic, creating potentially hazardous situations. These issues arise at varying mileages, from as low as 325 km shortly after purchase to around 60,000 miles, just beyond the warranty period.

Owner complaints3

AIR BAGS

Owners of the 2022 Land Rover Range Rover Sport report issues related to unresolved airbag recalls, with multiple complaints highlighting delays in the availability of repair parts. Symptoms described include concerns about the airbag system potentially failing to deploy properly in a crash, which may increase the risk of serious injury. Complaints frequently mention that recalls have been open for over three months without resolution, and one owner notes a dealership's inability to access recall information due to an internal system issue. Safety implications include the possibility of airbags tearing during deployment, which could result in insufficient protection or hot gas burns. Buyers should be aware of these unresolved recall issues, as they may affect the vehicle's safety for occupants.

Owner complaints3

STRUCTURE

Owners report issues with the structure of the 2022 Land Rover Range Rover Sport, specifically related to the A-pillar trim pieces on the driver’s side. Complaints frequently mention that these trim pieces detach at highway speeds, with some incidents leading to the pieces falling off entirely and posing a road hazard. In one case, the detached trim struck another vehicle, highlighting a potential safety risk. Additionally, there is a reported issue concerning the availability of aluminum roof-panel replacements, with dealerships restricting part sales to certified facilities. These problems appear to occur early in the vehicle's life, as indicated by repeated incidents shortly after warranty repairs.

Owner complaints2

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING

Owners of the 2022 Land Rover Range Rover Sport report issues with the engine and cooling systems. Complaints frequently mention the vehicle failing to start due to a failed CVVL gasket, with one report indicating this occurs around 46,000 miles. Another common issue involves a coolant leak, with owners describing coolant pooling on the ground and the low coolant warning light illuminating, typically around 76,000 miles. No crashes, fires, or loss of control are reported in these complaints, but potential buyers should be aware of these mechanical issues, which may require repairs or replacements.
