While driving the RRS the rear spoiler separated from the vehicle and flew off. Fortunately the road was quiet and the spoiler landed in the grass next to the road. This is a known issue and when I contacted Land Rover they stated mine didn't have the recall. If this had happened on a busy street or near pedestrians the outcome could have been worse or fatal.

The rear spoilers of my vehicle fell off while I was driving on the highway, which became an obstacle in the roadway. I contacted the dealer and they promised to order the part. However, they didn't follow up then. I would like to file a complaint regarding this. Thank you! The contact stated that the complaint filed is no longer needed.

Smell gasoline and gasoline on ground. Recall exists for fuel tank but informed my model is not covered but the flange must be damaged as car is currently leaking gas. Car is at Range Rover dealership who says not covered but their is an existing safety recall for my 2011 Range Rover Sports
Oct 11, 2025
I was making a u-turn onto a busy 4 lane highway which the speed limit was 45mph. Once I made my turn the truck starting putting and not going over 5mph. There was a very loud smell of gas. I barely made off the highway away from the incoming traffic. On the dash Restricted Performance was illuminated. I had to get the vehicle towed. I was terrified because my daughter and I commute everyday and that issue with fuel could have been horrific. I called the dealer they advised me that the part for the recall is depleted and it could be weeks or even months before they hear anything.

The vehicle is leaking fuel close to the inside of the rear tire by the gas cap side. When I pump gas it doesn’t just drip, it’s pouring out the bottom of the vehicle and running down wires and parts of the car.

GAS LEAKING FROM THE FLANGE WHILE DRIVING. FLANGE WAS REPLACED. I WOULD LIKE TO REPORT THIS REPAIR AS A CONCERN. I HAVE NEVER OWNED A VEHICLE THAT HAD A GAS LEAK. I LOST MY SENSE OF SMELL 20 YEARS AGO AND WOULD NOT HAVE KNOW OF THE GAS SMELL IF MY DAUGHTER HAD NOT MADE ME AWARE OF IT. I SPOKE WITH THE DEALER ABOUT A POTENTIAL RECALL INVESTIGATION ON THE FLANGE AND THEY WERE UNAWARE OF ANY RECALL INVESTIGATION. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS ISSUE AND SHOULD BE A RECALL BY LAND ROVER.

SMELL OF FUEL ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF VEHICLE, GET NOTICEABLY STRONGER AFTER DRIVING VEHICLE. AFTER INSPECTING AROUND THE TOP OF THE FUEL TANK I FOUND FUEL SQUIRTING OUT OF THE FUEL FILTER/PUMP WHICH IS SEATED IN THE TOP OF THE FUEL TANK. I HAD GONE ON LINE TO ASSISTED ME IN TRACKING DOWN THE ISSUE AND FOUND THIS IS A COMMON REPORTED ISSUE. MY VEHICLE ONLY HAS 111337 MILES ON THE ODOMETER AND I NOTICED A LOT OF THESE REPORTED ISSUE ARE FOR LAND ROVER VEHICLES THAT HAVE AROUND THE SAME MILAGE.

ON JANUARY 3, 2014 (FRIDAY) MY YOUNG DAUGHTER AND I WERE ON WAY TO THE AIRPORT TO PICK UP MY SON. WE WERE ON 110 FWY WHEN SUDDENLY A WARNING "WARNING - BRAKE PADS WORN" CAME ON AND DISAPPEARED QUICKLY. I WAS SKEPTICAL, BUT I HAD TO GO AND PICK UP MY SON. BRAKES SEEMED TO WORK OK. I DROVE EXTREMELY SLOW IN SLOW LANE. ON OUR WAY BACK HOME, THE CAR STARTED TO MAKE LOUD METAL GRINDING NOISE EVERY TIME I BRAKED. I ASKED MY BOYFRIEND, ART, TO CALL PASADENA LAND ROVER TO ASK IF I SHOULD HAVE THE CAR TOWED. WE WERE TOLD TO BRING THE CAR ON SATURDAY MORNING. WE TOOK THE CAR IN SATURDAY MORNING TO LAND ROVER DEALER. I WAS ADVISED THAT NOT ONLY ALL THE BRAKE PADS WERE BAD, I HAD TO REPLACE THE ROTOR. I ENDED UP PAYING $1,679.99. DUE TO INSUFFICIENT AND INADEQUATE WARNING, NOT ONLY IT PUT MY CHILDREN AND MYSELF IN DANGER, CAUSED ADDITIONAL UNNECESSARY EXPENSES. I CONTACTED LAND ROVER CUSTOMER SERVICE AND FILED A COMPLAINT. DESPITE LEAVING MESSAGES, WE HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO SPEAK TO ANYONE. I AM EXTREMELY CONCERNED. WHAT IF WE WERE ON A LONG TRIP ON FREEWAY AND BRAKES FAIL. WHEN AND HOW WILL I KNOW IF BRAKE PADS ARE GOING BAD. *TR

Spoiler may detach from the car while driving, creating the risk of a crash, as my spoiler is detached. The top of the spoiler and bottom portion of the spoiler has an open gap between the top and bottom portions of the spoiler. The bottom portion hangs and covers nearly half my rear view camera, obstructing my view when attempting to use the rear camera. The spoiler seems to have become much looser and bounces excessively while being driven. It does not feel safe to continue driving at this time, as I fear the spoiler will detach while in transit and cause harm to vehicles traveling behind my vehicle. My vehicle is currently at my local Land Rover for another recall at this time. Had it towed over.

WHILE ATTEMPTING TO CHANGE A FLAT TIRE USING THE FACTORY SUPPLIED VEHICLE JACK, THE JACK FELL OVER AND CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO FALL, PINNING MY HAND IN BETWEEN THE SPARE TIRE AND THE REAR LEFT FENDER. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AT THE TIME WITH THE EMERGENCY BRAKE ENGAGED. MY HAND WAS PINNED FOR ABOUT 3-5 MINUTES BEFORE MY SON AND A GOOD SAMARITAN WERE ABLE TO LIFT THE VEHICLE OFF OF MY HAND. I LATER HAD X-RAYS DONE, WHICH WERE NEGATIVE. MY HAND WAS CUT AND BRUISED, SO I DID HAVE TO GET A TETANUS SHOT.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE FREEWAY AT APPROXIMATELY 70 MPH WHEN MY SUNROOF EXPLODED FOR NO APPARENT REASON. IT SOUNDED LIKE A SHOT GUN WENT OFF IN MY CAR AND SCARED ME SO BAD I NEARLY LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. I LITERALLY THOUGHT I WAS BEING SHOT AT. IT TOOK ME A SECOND TO REALIZE WHAT HAD HAPPENED. I LOOKED AROUND AND THERE WAS GLASS ALL OVER MYSELF (DRIVER), AND THE FRONT SEATS. MOST OF THE GLASS LANDED IN MY CHILD'S CAR SEAT ON THE REAR DRIVERS SIDE. THANKFULLY HE WASN'T IN THE VEHICLE. THIS IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM. I THOUGHT AT FIRST IT WAS A ROCK THAT BOUNCED OFF THE GLASS ON THE SUNROOF, BUT THERE WAS NOT A MARK ON THE ROOF OF THE CAR. I FILED AN INSURANCE CLAIM AND THEY ARE REPAIRING IT THIS COMING SATURDAY. IN THE MEANTIME I HAVE SHUT THE SUNROOF COVER TO MAKE SURE GLASS ISN'T COMING THROUGH THE CAR.

At the beginning of the year my car started going into limp mode and shutting down. I had it inspected and the purge valve was faulty and I paid to have it replaced in august 2021. In the past month it’s started dying while driving, mostly as I’m pulling up to a stoplight. The engine will sputter and it will completely die while the car is in drive which means I loose controll of the steering wheel even while it’s still moving. I just had it inspected and it’s the same issue, the purge valve I’ve just replaced is stuck closed. So this will be the 3rd purge valve this car has had in a 4 month period. I’m afraid this is going to cause me to have an accident and it’s the same thing over and over so it sounds like it’s a faulty part.

SAFETY RECALL N623: Gasoline Fuel Tank Flange Assembly Cracking WHY is this recall not showing when I enter my VIN number here? Vehicle was towed back to house November 24th, 2021 after discovering it was leaking gas all over the Walmart parking lot. I have been smelling gas inside the vehicle and on the outside passenger side of the vehicle for almost 2 months! I saw no visible evidence to prompt concern until November 24th. When I called AAA to have the car towed they asked me to call 911 to clear the car from “risk of explosion” before it could be towed. I have been trying to call the Land Rover dealership to get my car in for this repair and they can’t get me in until the end of January!?! How is this acceptable!? I’ve been driving this car around like this for two months.. possibly longer.. with my TODDLER! And I’m being told by AAA, my mobile mechanic and this ‘Safety Recall Letter’ that the car is at risk of explosion!? I have the “Important Safety Recall” letter in my hands right now that outlines my exact issue and it literally says.. “there could be liquid fuel underneath the vehicle, which in the presence of an ignition source could lead to a fire.” This is unacceptable! I don’t have a vehicle now. I can’t work. Not working isn’t an option. Not having a reliable and safe vehicle I can count on isn’t an option. I can’t get my car in for the necessary repairs in a timely manner. I’m just stuck. There is no ideal time for this issue to arise but right before Christmas!? I can’t even think of the appropriate words to communicate the level of havoc and life f**kery this is causing. I’m literally here reporting this issue because of the letter I received and now I’m infuriated this recall isn’t even listed on y’all’s website. Who sends out an “Important Safety Recall” letter that casually mentions the car could catch on fire and then just doesn’t put the recall into full effect!? What’s my next step? Attorney. What’s y’all’s?

THIS IS A DANGEROUS ISSUE! THERE MAY BE OTHER UNSUSPECTING DRIVERS ON THE ROAD IN 2011 RANGE ROVERS WHO MAY HAVE A HEAD ON COLLISION IF THIS HAPPENS TO THEM BECAUSE THE WHEEL IS VERY, VERY HEAVY TO TURN WITHOUT THE POWER ASSIST STEERING - AND - WHEN NOT EXPECTING THAT SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER ASSIST - THE RECIPE FOR DANGER IS HEIGHTENED! *TR
