The 2024LAND ROVERRANGE ROVER carries 15 consumer safety complaints in NHTSA's Office of Defects Investigation database for this specific model-year cohort. Within that volume, owners reported 7 crashes, 0 fires, 20 injuries, and 6 fatalities. For crash performance, NHTSA's New Car Assessment Program gave this cohort an overall Not Rated/5 rating, with Not Rated/5 front crash, Not Rated/5 side crash, and Not Rated/5 rollover scores derived from standardized barrier and dynamic tests.
Component-level analysis is where model-year complaints become actionable: the top complaint category for the 2024 RANGE ROVER is power train with 3 filings, followed by engine (3) and service brakes (3). Concentration in one or two component groups is the classic signature of a systemic defect; a flat distribution usually reflects normal aging, warranty complaints, or isolated build-plant variability. This model year has 6 active recall campaigns, which means the manufacturer is obligated to remedy the covered defect at no charge for the life of the vehicle, the full NHTSA campaign numbers are listed below.
NHTSA currently has 2 investigation files overlapping the 2024 RANGE ROVER. Owners comparing this cohort against neighboring years should pair the counters above with the complaint-by-year trend on the parent model page, a spike in a single year often tracks to a platform refresh, a new transmission supplier, or an updated ECU calibration.

Jaguar Land Rover North America, LLC (Land Rover) is recalling certain 2024 Range Rover and Range Rover Sport vehicles. The transmission oil pressure may decrease and cause the clutch to shift into neutral gear, which can result in a loss of drive power.
ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
Jaguar Land Rover North America, LLC (Land Rover) is recalling certain 2024 Land Rover Range Rover vehicles. The engine mounted oil cooler hoses may not be secured properly, which can result in oil leaking onto the road.

The moon roof on the roof of the vehicle shattered. However, it was not a typical "starburst" pattern from an impact. We did not have any impacts. Instead, the shatter pattern was a series of sinusoidal waves. This glass fracture pattern has been identified by researchers in scholarly papers as a manufacturing defect or a stress fracture from torsional forces.
Subject: URGENT: Global Safety Defect Report â Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) Powertrain Control Module (PCM) and Fuel Pump Driver Module (FPDM) Failure. Description of Defect: I am writing to formally report a critical safety defect affecting Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) vehicles involving the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) and the Fuel Pump Driver Module (FPDM). These modules are experiencing spontaneous "reset" or "reboot" events during vehicle operation, leading to a sudden and total loss of propulsion. Safety Hazard: Affected vehicles are experiencing power loss at highway speeds, often resulting in the vehicle stopping abruptly in live lanes of traffic. This defect has directly led to near-misses and reported accidents. The loss of power frequently occurs without warning, rendering the vehicle a "sitting duck" on high-speed roads, creating an extreme risk of rear-end collisions and multi-vehicle pileups. Manufacturer Inaction: Despite internal technical bulletins (e.g., NHTSA T

Subject: URGENT: Investigation Request â Systemic Loss of Propulsion in Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) Vehicles (2017â2026). 1. Description of Defect I am formally reporting a critical, life-threatening safety defect involving the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) and the Fuel Pump Driver Module (FPDM) in Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) vehicles. These modules suffer from spontaneous software "resets" or "reboot" loops during operation. When the PCM resets, it severs communication with the fuel system, causing an immediate and total loss of propulsion (motive power). 2. Safety Hazard and Real-World Impact This defect triggers without warning at highway speeds, resulting in vehicles stopping abruptly in high-speed lanes. This creates a "sitting duck" scenario, rendering the vehicle unable to move to a shoulder and significantly increasing the risk of catastrophic rear-end collisions and multi-vehicle pileups. Reported incidents include near-misses and accidents directly attributed to this sudd

The component is Land Rover windshields and design of 2024 vehicles. I am on my 6th windshield in a little over a year since purchase. I have had a crack and runs in my vision on the window more than a clear vision through the windshield. The Land Rover Company/manufacturer/dealerships know if the defect design of windshields. Capital Glass in Baton Rouge, Louisiana has changed and commented on the number of windshields that have been replaced on Range Rovers, and Defenders all produced by Land Rover.
rear brakes were worn only after 13 mths of driving a brand new range rover and that was driving slow and never pushing the car. Out of the 20+ vehicles i've owned in my lifetime i've never seen a vehicle requiring new brake pads at 10-15k miles. Basically, we need to replace the brake pads every year with the annual service which is unacceptable and clearly faulty.
On my 7 passenger RR when the button is pushed for the second row seat to move up to allow a passenger in the third row access, if the button is accidentally pressed to move the seat back into place, it will not automatically disengage if someone is stuck between the seat and vehicle frame. This happened to me. I moved the seat forward in order to lean into the third row to attach a booster seat. As I was leaning on the car frame to reach the 3rd row, my body somehow pressed the button that allows the second row seat to go back into position. I did not hear it moving back into place. I became stuck in between the seat and the car frame. I could not move and the seat would not release off my back. It was crushing me and my lung capacity was being compressed. I pushed with all my might for it to move off me and I could feel it compress my lungs further. I found a latch to pull but that did not release it. With half of my body inside the vehicle I could not reach the button that I was
This four month old 2024 Range Rover LWB with Bosch brakes experienced a sudden and complete loss of braking capabilities. When the driver went to brake and while turning into a parking stall, the brake pedal was not in its usual position and did not work. It was stuck to or close to the floor mat and was unresponsive. The brake was not at the normal position springing back after having previously compressed it. The braking system failure happened at a low speed after a series of turns. The driver was unable to stop the vehicle and it crashed. The lack of braking capability occurred for multiple seconds while going into a parking space until the vehicle crashed. The driver attempted emergency measures when the vehicleâs brakes were unresponsive in a desperate attempt to do anything to stop the vehicle. That included potentially pushing the park button in the center console. After multiple seconds of the brakes not working and the driver attempting to take any measure to stop the ve
On first occastions while driving at 60+ MPH on a busy highway, the vehicle beeped for a few seconds and the dashboard went blank, engine died, no brakes, no power steering. It was only a miracle that saved me from being hit at a high speed by other drivers. The dealer charged the battery and updated the SW. Approximately 5 weeks later, on the second occasion after driving 300 miles out of town, the same thing happened again. Luckily, I was on a local road and was able to get off the travel lanes. On both occasions, the vehicle was towed to a Land Rover Dealership. The vehicle remains at the dealership now for the past 10 days while they try to figure out the problem. The vehicle is less than 3 months with only 2600 miles. The Service Advisor at my local dealership told me that there have been several similar cases and that LR cannot seem to diagnose or fix the problem.

Was on the highway and there was a rumbling noise coming from under the car. It would only happen at highway speeds. (The dealer said this was normal and happened when he trest drive another car of the same model.) When driving at parking lot speeds and making sharp turns, the car would have a shudder and grinding noise. The car has 5,700 miles, and after taking it to the dealership, they said it needs a new transfer case. When they lifted the car, the part connecting the transfer case to the drivetrain was loose and would move when touched. And there is no ETA on the part. Now the car is undrivable, and there is no telling when it will be again.
