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 9 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 2015 RANGE ROVER SPORT, and 1 remain open. 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.

While inspecting my vehicle, I discovered a crack on the driverâs side steering knuckle. Iâve learned that NHTSA Recall 24V-840 was issued for this exact issue on full-size Range Rovers. However, the same problem has occurred on my Range Rover Sport (L494), in the identical location. The affected part numbers are LR146347 (front left) and LR146346 (front right), which match those referenced in the existing recall. This is a serious safety concernâI am currently unable to drive the vehicle due to the risk. Iâve attached two photos for reference. One clearly shows a linear crack near the bolt. In the other, you can see the factory-applied green alignment marker is now offset, further indicating a structural failure. I am requesting that a case be opened to investigate including Range Rover Sport (L494) models in this recall. NHTSA Recall: 24V-840 Transport Canada Recall: 2022668 - Land Rover

Subject: Recall Complaint â Complaint No. 24V840000 / Land Rover Recall N759 Vehicle Information: 2015 Land Rover Range Rover Sport Issue Description: I discovered a crack in the passenger-side steering knuckle of my vehicle, caused by a manufacturing defect where the bolt was over-torqued. This defect risks catastrophic steering failure, potentially leading to a severe accident. While this issue is part of a recall in Canada and similar recalls for other Land Rover models (Discovery Sport, Evoque) exist in the U.S., my vehicle has not been included in the U.S. recall. Service Attempt: Land Rover of Huntington refused to honor the recall, citing my VINâs exclusion, and quoted over $9,000 for repairs. I escalated the issue to Rey Rodriguez, an executive specialist with Land Rover North America, but was told: "You have reached the highest level within Land Rover North America... your VIN is not part of the recall, and no further reconsideration will occur." Safety Concern: This d
Both front knuckles found to have cracks in the aluminum casting where the upper control arm mounts to the knuckles. Failure of this portion of the knuckle will result in complete loss of control of the car. This problem is well documented in other L494 and L405 Range Rovers with recalls currently active in other countries where these car were sold. The components have not been inspected by 3rd party as of yet due to safety concerns with transporting the vehicle to locations. No warning lamps or noises were present as there is no way for the vehicle to detect this failure which only occurs catastrophically without warning. Photos attached are of both knuckles with cracks.
Both the right and left suspension knuckles were cracked. This represented a potentially very dangerous situation if either knuckle had broken at high speed.
