The NHTSA is the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints can be spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem. See the Back button — blue bar at the very top of the page — to explore more.
I had backed in to the garage and turned the 'knob' to park. The vehicle was in park, I had removed my seatbelt but not exited the car yet and the car went backwards with some force and breaking didn't stop it, only after I hit the button to cut it off, multiple times, did it finally shut down. My husband was behind the car, getting ready to get the groceries out of the rear. This vehicle struck him and went thru the kitchen wall of our condo. His leg was stuck under the tire which that was turning on top of his calf. I am absolutely certain the car was in park bc not only was the knob set at P but also the P was on the screen. Only certain because I'm always cautious due to the proximity of distance of everything in the garage and tight quarters.

The contact owns a 2015 Land Rover Range rover. While making a turn at approximately 15 mph, the rear passenger door unlatched independently. The contact's nine month old child was seated in the rear of the vehicle closest to the door. Another passenger was seated on the rear driver's side and quickly reached over the child's car seat to keep the child from falling from the moving vehicle. As a result, the passenger sustained fractured ribs. Medical attention was required. The contact mentioned that the door was tightly secured prior to the release. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where the software was updated and lock was replaced. The VIN was not included in NHTSA campaign number: 15V385000 (latches/locks/linkages). The vehicle production date was March 14, 2015; however, the affected vehicle's manufactured date only extended to March 9, 2015. On a separate occasion, the instrument panel lighting dimmed while driving at night. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 7,000.

My car has been in 4 times with the same issue, the vehicle will randomly shut itself off, I.e. the car shuts off, the transmission moves to park. It is not ecostart or from my unbuckling the seatbelt. This happens when I am turning into parking spaces and immediately after the vehicle stops, occurrence is 20+ times now. The fault will not save in the computer and land rovers engineers have admitted its probably a software glitch but cannot fix if it doesn't show in computer. I have attempted buyback process with Land Rover with them admitting my car has "inherent defects" they will not buy the vehicle back, are unable to fix this and other issues with the vehicle. Land Rover claims the issue does not affect driveability.
