Owner report 11630081 · 2024-12-11 (December 11, 2024)
I am new to Land Rover Discovery Sport and a bit disappointed with the Blind Spot Warning functionality. There is very little warning compared to all other cars I have owned with this feature. There needs to be an option for audible warning when blind spot monitoring detects something and the turn signal is activated. Currently there is no audible warning. Also the system seems a bit slow. Feels like it should detect a blind spot object sooner. Finally, there needs to be blind spot warning indicators on the HUD. All of these are safety issue an…

Owner report 11630503 · 2024-12-13 (December 13, 2024)
Windshield washer fluid is leaking from the reservoir/pump near the front driver side tire when the rear window wash is activated. The bottle already became empty once. There shouldn't be any leaking to begin with but this is also a safety issue if you actually have to use the windshield wash while on the road and there is no fluid in the bottle because it leaked out.

Owner report 11630745 · 2024-12-14 (December 14, 2024)
On several occasions the amber AEB Off warning light has appeared. It wasn't raining and radars + camera were clear. The warning light went away on its own within 30 seconds without restarting the car. This should be investigated as a safety system issue especially since it's occuring even though the sensors are clean and unobstructed.

Owner report 11633711 · 2025-01-02 (January 2, 2025)
Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB) and Lane Keep Assist systems turn off for no apparent reasons. This happened multiple times on this loaner vehicle and my own vehicle (same model). All the times I've seen this happen it was at night and clear out. So its not like radars or cameras are blocked by rain, snow, etc...This needs to be investigated since its happening on all of these models and radar/cameras are clear. Only common theme so far is that its happening when its dark out.

Owner report 11660149 · 2025-05-10 (May 10, 2025)
Is this a flaw? I was driving with my wife, she had the key. I dropped her off and drove away about a mile. The car didn't say anything about the key not being present in the vehicle. Shouldn't it have said something about the key not being present? Seems like this is a computer/software flaw which should be investigated and updated.

25V705000 · Power Train:Automatic Transmission:Gear Position Indication (Prndl)
Reported: 2025-10-16 (October 16, 2025)
Jaguar Land Rover North America, LLC (Land Rover) is recalling certain 2025 Range Rover, Range Rover Sport, Discovery Sport, and 2026 Range Rover Evoque, and Jaguar F-Pace vehicles. Moisture may have entered the gear shift module (GSM) during assembly, which can cause the gear shift position indicator light to fail. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 101, "Controls and Displays."
Consequence: A gear shift position indicator that fails to illuminate can make it difficult to identify the correct transmission gear position, increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy: Dealers will replace the GSM, free of charge. Owner letters were mailed December 2, 2025. Owners may contact Land Rover’s customer service at 1-800-637-6837. Land Rover's numbers for this recall are D054 and H566.
