The contact owns a 2024 Land Rover Range Rover. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle would shift into neutral independently before losing automotive power. A warning message "Electrical Fault detected" and another unknown were displayed. The vehicle was towed to a local dealer, where it was diagnosed with a catastrophic converter failure. The vehicle was repaired out of pocket. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 21,000.

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 – 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 TSB...

Subject: URGENT: Investigation Request – Systemic Loss of Propulsion in Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) Vehicles (2017–2026). 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 sudden s...

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.
