The contact owns a 2005 landrover LR3. The contact stated that the check engine warning light flashed and remained illuminated. While at a stop light to make a left turn, the vehicle stalled without warning. The contact was able to restart the vehicle, but the failure continued. The contact stated that when the fuel was lower than a quarter of a tank, the vehicle randomly stalled. The VIN was not included in NHTSA campaign numbers: 07V011000 (fuel system, gasoline) and 05V376000 (fuel system, gasoline). The dealer did not notify the contact of NHTSA campaign number: 08V248000 (steering), which was not completed before the contact owned the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to a repair shop for inspection and diagnosis. The manufacturer was notified of the failures and provided no remedy. The approximate failure mileage was 80,060.

This vehicle has had numerous problems from excessive tire wear to cruise control not shutting off when depressing the control button on the steering wheel. Now there is a excessive water leak that has caused electrical problems such as parking brake malfunction, windshield washer to fail, numerous warning lights coming on. This all causes me to not use the vehicle, until it dries out, for fear that the leak from the sunroof will cause electrical failure while driving. Also the wiring is probably becoming very corroded and could short out causing the vehicle to catch fire. During the warranty period of this vehicle it was extremely difficult to get Land Rover North America to acknowledge any of these problems other than they were unique to this vehicle.

Vehicle has a problem that allows water to leak through the sun roof seal and front windshield seal. The water seepage is causing electrical problems with certain vehicle functions; namely the inability to use the key fob remote to lock and unlock the vehicle. The electrical problems at this point appear to be intermittent and resolve themselves several days later, presumably after the water has evaporated. When driving the vehicle after it has been rained on, the trapped water within the ceiling of the vehicle begins to escape and fall through the airbag ports on the A-pillar and from the interior light console. The issue seems to be a common problem with this model when reading various reports on the internet.

Just as experienced by others, my 2005 Land Rover LR3 experienced water build up into the driver's side of the vehicle (approx 3 in. Deep of water both in driver and rear passenger area after heavy rain). According to the dealership, water dripped along the frame on which the windshield is mounted after a heavy rain and flooded the inside. This was apparently due to clogged drainage tubes. A few days later, the parking brake failed to operate and the warning light for the system came on. The parking brake was never repaired / is still not operable. Although the dealership said the tubes were fixed, this flooding occurrence has happened 4 more times. No recommendations were given to avoid future occurrences, or guarantees given that additional systems affected by water damage (including ones vital to supporting the vehicle in motion) will not fail.

I just bought a 2005 Land Rover LR3 SE. Two days later after a rain, the passenger's side floor was wet. The next day the remote keyless entry stopped working. After looking online, I found that this is a common problem with the keyless entry due to a problem with the sunroof drains pouring water into the floor and causing corrosion of the wiring.

- Lexington, KY, USA

I have a 2005 Land Rover lr 3. both remote controls stopped working at the same time. After further investigation I found out that this is a common problem for this model I checked various blogs and I discovered hundreds of complaints about the sunroof drainage leading to wire corrosion and resulting in short circuit and keyless entry remotes not working. Dealers are aware of this problem, but they say this is not a reason for a recall.

A 2005 Land Rover LR3 experienced water intrusion into the driver's side area. Water dripped along the frame on which the windshield is mounted after several days of heavy rain. A few days later, the vehicle's remote lock/unlock system failed to operate. Inspection of the vehicle by Land Rover service personnel revealed clogged "drain tubes" leading from the sunroof along the driver and passenger side front frames, which subsequently allowed water to enter the vehicle through an undertermined entry point. Electrical wiring for the remote control system was rendered inoperable. Other cabling and interior carpeting were also water-damaged. Land Rover service personnel replaced existing drain tubes with larger diameter ones. The faulty remote system was repaired. Other systems whose cabling was exposed to liquid were not traced out or replaced. No recommendations were given to avoid future occurrences, or guarantees given that additional systems affected by water damage (including ones vital to supporting the vehicle in motion) will not fail.

My 2005 Land Rover LR3 has several warning lights, varies from brake to suspension which usually clears itself after restarting the engine. Last week the amber light on the suspension heights is on again with chimes each time the engine starts. 3 days ago, I was driving to a supermarket when the amber light turned red, the suspension system failed, the vehicle dropped to a low stance and very bouncy. It made strange noise from the left rear side, I can't even drive more than 25 miles per hour, as it will bounce wildly. The car is now still stuck in a low level suspension, parked in the a parking space near my house. Lucky it happens not more than 10 miles away from my house, so I drove it very slowly. If this problem happens in a freeway, this is a very dangerous situation.

2005 LR3. Unable to unlock doors with key remote. Opened doors manually. Took car to dealership. After 6 days, notified that electrical system failed due to water leaking into car. Two drains from sunroof were "spliced" and water draining into interior of car resulting in "mold" throughout mat and carpet. Carpet and pad removed and treated with "lysol" only, recarpeted, and electrical repaired. Not convinced that mold problem resolved completely. Mother and 10 year old child suffered chronic bronchial problems for the first three months of this year (2007).

My 2005 LR3 had numerous problems with the air suspension. The compressor had to be replaced 2 times, and I had 2 or 3 different software updates. Recently it started with transmission problems, also affecting the electronic parking brake. First time in Jan 07 car was towed to dealer, who said it just needed a software update. The second time just now in April I got transmission problems, ABS warning, suspension failure. Dealer told me that was a known problem with LR3 and nothing to worry, it just was electronic and needed again another computer update. But how can I know it is still safe? I also have intermittent problems with window switches and steering wheel mounted controls who go totally crazy.
