I was driving my 2015 Range Rover Sport, when a low battery symbol displayed on the dashboard. I drove 3 miles away to go to AutoZone to buy a new battery and as I parked the vehicle, I noticed smoke coming from the hood of the vehicle. My brother and I ran inside of AutoZone and asked them if they had a fire extinguisher because my car had a little fire on the driver-??s side of the engine. I got AAA to tow my vehicle into the Land Rover dealership/Maintenance repair shop. The repair specialist I-??m assigned to (Sam Haidary) at the Land Rover location in Freeport, Long Island NY, told me that the fire issue with the vehicle didn-??t come from the alternator or the weak battery, so I did some research online because I personally know someone that went through this same issue (i.e. Range Rover Sport catching on fire with no warning) as I just went through. I came across this article that-??s addressing the same exact issue (the engine catching fire) that happened to my 2015 Range Rover Sport. Here-??s the article: [XXX] I purchased my vehicle on February 2021 and every year I bring it to the Land Rover Range Rover for repairs and upkeep 2-3 times per year. I don-??t know why this is happening but from reading that article it-??s apparently obvious that the same issue has happened to my vehicle.

While driving home on the evening of June 27, 2023, a distance of about 15 miles, the low coolant light suddenly came on, and as we tried pulling over on the next freeway exit, the engine appeared to seize and cut out. It was difficult to brake and steer the car and we were nervous to get in an accident. We came to a rest off the freeway and then officers helped us push our car into a nearby Auto Zone. We left it there overnight to rest and when we came back the next day, the engine would not start. Had it towed to a nearby independent service center where they determined both engine heads had blown. The car is available for inspection. I have called the manufacturer to see if there were any recalls related to this and found a P055 recall for this model. The description in this recall is very similar to what we experienced.

Within the first weeks of ownership failed to reengage the transmission after the eco feature turned off the engine. Eco feature turns the car off when the car is stopped in traffic or a stop signal to save fuel etc. When this occurs the car will not respond to gas pedal being pushed and the car does not go. The car has to be turned off and restarted to get the transmission to engage. This takes several seconds to do and creates a very dangerous situation.I have contacted the salesman at the dealership and he said he has heard this happen to others but they do not have a fix yet.

The vehicle within the first few weeks of ownership failed to operate while driving on a freeway in stop and go traffic. After being stopped, the vehicle transmission or engine seemed to malfunction and the car was stuck on the freeway with traffic moving around the car, creating a very dangerous situation. I was informed that the vehicle VIN was part of a group of vins that received bad software that caused the problem. After restarting the vehicle, the vehicle appeared to operate normally and it was ultimately taken to the dealership for repair. The vehicle has also experienced certain electrical problems starting on the first day of ownership.
