2018 Land Rover Range Rover

The four-corner air suspension system is the Range Rover's most notorious failure point. Air strut bladders crack and leak, causing the vehicle to sag, and the compressor burns out from running continuously to compensate. Warnings such as 'Suspension Fault' and 'Normal Height Only' appear. The vehicle may become undrivable if it drops to the bump stops.

Replace leaking air struts (all four often need replacement within a short window). Replace the compressor and air dryer assembly. A full system leak-down test should be performed to identify all failure points before beginning repairs. Some owners convert to Arnott or other aftermarket air struts at lower cost.

The dual-screen Touch Pro Duo system experiences black screens, frozen displays, and slow response on both the upper and lower screens. Climate controls, seat heating, and terrain response settings become inaccessible when the lower screen fails. The system drains significant processing power and generates heat, leading to thermal throttling and lag.

Jaguar Land Rover has issued multiple software updates for the Touch Pro Duo system. Dealers can perform a full system reflash or replace the infotainment modules if hardware failure is confirmed. JLR TSB LTB00726 addresses systematic screen failures on the L405 platform.

The 5.0L supercharged V8 develops coolant leaks from the coolant crossover pipes at the front of the engine, where the O-rings degrade from heat cycling. The leak starts as a slow seep but can progress to a significant loss of coolant. Overheating can cause catastrophic engine damage if the coolant level is not monitored.

Replace the coolant crossover pipe O-rings and inspect the pipes for corrosion. The supercharger intercooler coolant circuit should also be checked for leaks. JLR TSB LTB00589 covers the repair procedure. A complete cooling system pressure test should be performed after the repair.

The two-speed transfer case develops a fluid leak from the output shaft seal, and owners report a clunk when shifting between drive and reverse or when transitioning from coasting to acceleration. The transfer case fluid leak is visible as a dark oil spot under the center of the vehicle. Low fluid levels can cause internal damage.

Replace the transfer case output shaft seal and refill with the correct specification fluid. If the internal clutch packs or chain are worn (causing the clunk), a transfer case rebuild or replacement is required. JLR TSB LTB00612 addresses transfer case seal leaks on the L405.

The powered tailgate fails to latch, open, or close properly. The power closing assist motor wears out, and the latch mechanism can become misaligned. Owners report the tailgate bouncing back open after attempting to close, and the 'Tailgate Open' warning remaining on the dash even when closed. Water intrusion corrodes the wiring in the tailgate.

Replace the tailgate latch mechanism and the power closing assist motor. Inspect and repair the tailgate wiring harness for corrosion. The tailgate hinges and gas struts should be checked for proper alignment. Recalibration with the dealer diagnostic tool is required after replacement.

Jaguar Land Rover North America, LLC (Land Rover) is recalling certain 2018-2022 Range Rover and Range Rover Sport vehicles equipped with a Surround Camera System. Water may enter into the rearview camera, which can cause the rearview camera image not to appear on the display or display a distorted image. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 111, "Rear Visibility."

A rearview camera image that does not display while in reverse decreases the driver's visibility, increasing the risk of injury or crash.

Dealers will inspect the rearview camera and add a new seal or replace the camera, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed to Range Rover owners March 4, 2024. Interim notification letters were mailed to Range Rover Sport owners March 7, 2024. Range Rover Sport owners will receive a second notice once remedy parts become available. Owners may contact Land Rover customer service at 1-800-637-6837. Land Rover's number for this recall is N778.

Jaguar Land Rover North America, LLC. (Land Rover) is recalling certain 2018-2020 Range Rover, Range Rover Sport, Discovery, and Range Rover Velar vehicles. The Auto High Beam (AHB) system does not indicate through the instrument cluster when the high beams are illuminated automatically. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."

The driver may be unaware that the high beams are illuminated, reducing visibility for oncoming traffic, and increasing the risk of a crash.

Land Rover will notify owners, and dealers will update the vehicle software, free of charge. The recall began April 7, 2021. Owners may contact Land Rover customer service at 1-800-637-6837. Land Rover's number for this recall is N556.

Jaguar Land Rover North America, LLC (Land Rover) is recalling certain 2018 Range Rover and Range Rover Sport vehicles equipped with Continental Surround Camera Systems. The back-up camera system may fail to display the rearview image when the vehicle is in reverse.

Failure to display the rearview image will reduce the driver's visibility, increasing the risk of a crash.

Land Rover will notify owners, and dealers will reprogram the infotainment system software, free of charge. The recall began October 2, 2019. Owners may contact Land Rover customer service at 1-800-637-6837. Land Rover's number for this recall is N367.

Jaguar Land Rover North America, LLC (Land Rover) is recalling certain 2018 Land Rover Range Rover, Land Rover Range Rover Sport and Land Rover Discovery vehicles. The Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB) system may be disabled without warning the driver that the system is not functional.

If the AEB does not intervene when needed, without warning, there would be an increased risk of a crash.

Land Rover will notify owners, and dealers will update the vehicle software, free of charge. The recall began October 17, 2018. Owners may contact Land Rover customer service at 1-800-637-6837, Option 9. Land Rover's number for this recall is N227.
