“I had my oil changed and mechanic noted both my fuel tank belly pans were heavily corroded, which was odd for a garaged car with lower miles. They recommended reaching out to my dealership since this is a pressing issue that likely should include a recall or warranty. When I researched the issue, it's a known Range Rover Sport design issue, a 2019 should not have this much corrosion and it sounds like condensation pools. Also, the mechanic noted that this likely has been happening for a while. The RI Range Rover dealership inspected my car in August 2025, and didn't flag any issues.”Owner report · Fuel/Propulsion System · Jul 2026
“Intermittent problem.The car while going forward with no warning slows down to around 20 to 30mph and cannot go faster when depressing the gas pedal.

“Constant loss of coolant, overheating. Coored. Crossover pipes replaces. Pressure tests to coolant system come back as normal, but vehicle requires frequent topping up and dashboard warning lights. Car overheated on highway requiring immediate stopping and tow. After removing starter, pooling found while under pressure on shield under turbo manifold. Exact location of leak is tbd. These repairs should be covered by a recall for how frequently they occur. The MHEV turbo is generating too much heat for all of the plastic parts.”Owner report · Engine · Oct 2025

“On Monday, October 28, 2024, while driving on [XXX] [XXX] from McKinney, TX, to Irving, TX, a red oil can light appeared on my vehicle's dashboard. Shortly after, the car struggled to accelerate. I pulled over, and white smoke began coming through the dashboard vents. Noticing a strong smell, my daughter and I exited the vehicle. We observed fluid leaking on the ground and smoke intensifying. Soon after, flames engulfed the vehicle's undercarriage. The entire car was consumed by fire.

The vehicle doors will not unlock when touching the door handles, the car does not start when trying to use push to start. Gives an error message that the key is not recognized.

“Range rover hst was driving in freeway with high winds, and the lift gate spoiler just got detached and came off. We believe that the quality of the part used was subpar, and it should stand the high winds, otherwise, there must be a warning that tells us that we can't drive the vehicle under such circumstances.”Owner report · Structure · Oct 2020

Every time they tell me it's due to needing an update. The issue started approx 8 weeks after I purchased the vehicle.”Owner report · Engine · Jul 2020
