Hello, My 2017 Land Rover with 63,000 miles on it had engine failure while driving on the highway - (the car is a great condition and has been to all service requirements at the dealerships)- the dealership is stating the cam shaft sensor failure, allegedly causing total engine failure. I know there was a similar recall on the 2014 Land Rover Discovery Sport - I wasn't sure if you had also received any information on later years for the car model.

I purchased a used 2017 Disco sport last July in great condition. After one year of driving it, and reaching a total of 70k miles, the camshaft intake actuator broke off, separating from the car. Clearly highlighting a textbook NHTSA -€œcritical safety defect-€. I only noticed the issue due to the check engine light and an engine fluttering noise. My local LR technician openly confirmed with me that this routinely happens with the 2015-2017 discovery sport and other Evoque models, as reported in LR-€™s technical bulletin (LTB00916NAS5 - Intake Camshaft Variable Cam Timing Actuator - Component Failure). In order to to fix this part I was been quoted $2362, and was told the part is essentially the same and could likely break again, putting myself and passengers at serious risk. When I told Land Rover-€™s customer service center of the issue they said they are not responsible since the warranty only cover the first 50k miles. Since this has been acknowledged by Land Rover as a common component failure, which has led to the part being on back order, it warrants LR to submit a formal recall on the part. Fixing it should also be free of charge. I feel it is unethical and irresponsible to Land Rover-€™s customers, to expect them to pay for an engineering failure both with their wallet and potentially their lives.

The contact owns a 2017 Land Rover Discovery sport. The contact stated that the engine failed. The contact became aware that engine oil was leaking from the vehicle. Several days later the check engine warning light illuminated and vehicle stalled while driving approximately 10 mph. The vehicle was towed to Jaguar Land Rover anaheim hills (5401 E. la palma, avenue, anaheim, ca, 92807, (714) 646-7053) to be diagnosed. The dealer performed a diagnostic that located failure codes at the canister purge solenoid and the oxygen sensor. The dealer replaced the canister purge solenoid and the oxygen sensor however, the repair did not correct the failure. The contact also stated the that the vehicle cruise control failed. The contact was unable to set the cruise control. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 26,028.

The vehicle would accelerate normally than out of the blue. It looses power, engine light illuminating advising not to continue driving. Code advising P0299 'turbo charger'common problem apparently mechanics advising online forums and repair ideas. Vehicle only has approximately 60,000 on it and all approved maintenance. Now they are denying major repair that is a common issue!!

Was driving speed limit and moving with traffic on major city road when battery light came on and car completely shut off. Was able to move to the right side of the road but still in the middle of oncoming traffic during rush hour. Car immediately went into park and could not move or turn on. Got a note on the dash that system was shutting down. Car had just been serviced 4 month prior.

I was driving from westchester county, NY to long island via I-695 heading toward the throgs neck bridge on 12/12/18. I was in the left lane just before the last exit before the bridge when my dashboard went dark, the red battery light (below the speedometer) came on, I lost power and steering. Luckily a small shoulder opened up and I was able to tug the wheel left to get into the shoulder before my car completely rolled to a stop. I avoided a crash but it was luck. I had to be towed off the highway and back to the dealer. Clearly this was no battery issue (as driving recharges a batter). The dealer's service center diagnosed it as a disconnected vacuum line. The repair notes indicate that it was reconnected using a "zip tie." When I inquired about whether that was the appropriate fix, the dealer sent me lr's technical service bulletin describing the repair for a certain range of vins, including mine. The zip tie is the last step - the bulletin also says the locking ring needs to be discarded and a new one installed. The dealer still has not confirmed with me (2 days later) that they did this. In any event, this is more than a technical service issue; this could be a life or death issue that warrants a recall for affected vehicles.

Friday May 11, 2018 while driving westbound on two lane highway us 90, approximately 8 miles East of Liberty, Texas power failed. Was driving 60 miles per hour, approximately, and two warning messages appeared. Gearbox fault and parking brake fault. I was able to pull out of traffic lane by coasting and stop on side of road. Placed vehicle in park and read the faults again. Was not able to move gear selector out of park. Shut off engine and restarted with foot on brake. Still same fault messages alternating. Unable to shift out of park with foot on brake. Called Land Rover assistance and they suggested turning vehicle back off and then on again. No resolution after three tries. Vehicle towed by flatbed wrecker to southwest Land Rover houston Texas. Wrecker driver stated this was a common problem with land rovers in general and was very helpful. At dealer the vehicle was unloaded from wrecker and no problems found. Dealer did not have explanation for reason no power and could not shift out of park. No fault codes were recorded by computer. If road did not have shoulder, could have caused serous or fatal accident. Many roads in houston do not have escape lanes or shoulders and speeds are in excess of 60 mph. Concerned no fault codes recorded and no guarantee will not happen again.

My 2017 Discovery sport with 22K miles, randomly shuts off while driving. The first time was on the freeway in traffic, and the car shut off, I had to put it in park and restart the car to put it back in gear. It went to the dealer who said it was a software problem, they updated the software and returned it to me. Four days later it happened again, total shut off while in movement, engine had to be restarted! not worth my life!!!
