Land rover Discovery problems
The Land Rover Discovery is a series of seven-seater family SUVs, produced under the Land Rover marque, from the British manufacturer Land Rover, and later Jaguar Land Rover. The series is currently in its fifth iteration (or generation, according to the manufacturer), the first of which was introduced in 1989, making the Discovery the first new model series since the launch of the 1970 Range Rover – on which it was based – and only the third new product line since the conception of the Land Rover (vehicle and brand) by Rover in 1948. The model is sometimes called influential, as one of the first to market a true off-road capable family car.
Although the Range Rover had originally been designed as an everyday four wheel drive car that could be used as both a utility vehicle and a family car, it had progressively moved upmarket through its life to evolve into a luxury vehicle sold at a much higher price point. The Discovery was intended to fulfill the role the Range Rover originally was intended for; a segment which was now dominated by Japanese rivals such as the Nissan Patrol, Mitsubishi Pajero and Toyota Land Cruiser. Although positioned below the Range Rover in the company's line-up, the vehicle was both longer and higher, offered more room in the back, and optionally also more seats. Space utilization became more sophisticated in later iterations, but the series keeps offering seats for seven occupants. Despite originally being sold as an affordable alternative to the Range Rover, the Discovery has also progressively moved upmarket through its successive generations to become a bonafide luxury SUV.
The second Discovery (1998) was called the Series II, and though featuring an extended rear body, was otherwise an updated facelift, which carried on the 100 in (2,540 mm) wheelbase frame and rigid, live front and rear axles of the original Range Rover into 2004.
The third iteration – succeeding the series I and II in 2004 - was either titled the Discovery 3 or simply LR3 (in North America and the Middle East). This was the first all-original design for the Discovery. Although it followed the 2002 third generation Range Rover, also switching to fully independent suspension, it still received a separate, but integrated body and frame (IBF) structure. The fourth iteration, as of 2009 – like the series II, was again mainly an update of the new generation – marketed as the Discovery 4, or Land Rover LR4 for North American and Middle Eastern markets.
The fifth iteration of the Discovery, introduced in 2017, no longer sports a numeric suffix. Unlike the previous two generations, it now benefits from a unitized body structure, making it lighter than its predecessor.

Common Land rover Discovery problems
Based on the complaints from owners of Land Rover Discovery cars, here is a list of common problems associated with these vehicles:
- Electric Faults:
- One of the most reported issues involves electronic problems affecting the door central locking system and windows. These electrical faults can impact the overall operation of the vehicle and lead to inconvenience for the owners.
- Front Lower Control Arm Issues:
- Land Rover Discovery 4 drivers have reported that the front lower control arms may require replacement after around 50,000 miles due to wear and tear. This can affect the steering mechanism of the vehicle.
- Faulty Air Suspension:
- Air suspension is crucial for off-road vehicles like the Land Rover Discovery. After approximately 100,000 miles, leaks in the rubber components of the air suspension system can occur, leading to issues with the vehicle's suspension.
- Timing Chain Replacement:
- Despite manufacturer recommendations to change the oil every 15,000 miles, some owners have experienced damage to the timing chain by delaying oil changes. This highlights the importance of regular maintenance to prevent costly repairs.
- Water Pump Leaks:
- A common issue reported by Discovery owners is a leaky water pump. If not addressed promptly, a leak in the water pump can result in engine overheating, potentially causing severe damage to the vehicle.
- Multimedia Infotainment System Problems:
- Owners of the Discovery 5 have complained about issues with the multimedia infotainment system. Problems include slow response, freezing, and difficulties with pairing smartphones. Software updates are recommended to address these glitches.
- Malfunctioning Electric Handbrakes:
- Some Discovery owners have faced issues with electric handbrakes sticking on, which can be a safety concern. Additionally, problems with the Tow Assist system have been reported, impacting the functionality of the vehicle.
- Engine Failures:
- Certain models, like the 3.0 Sd6 V6 diesel, have experienced catastrophic engine failures. Reports of metal fragments found in the engine oil of the Sd4 diesel suggest potential issues with engine components.
- Air Suspension Pump Failures:
- Failures in the air suspension's airbags pumps can lead to the vehicle listing to one side, posing a safety risk while driving. This issue highlights the importance of regular inspections and maintenance of the air suspension system.
These common problems with Land Rover Discovery cars emphasize the importance of regular maintenance, prompt repairs, and thorough inspections to ensure the longevity and reliability of these vehicles.

Land rover Discovery 2020
- Date Of Incident: 2024-07-20
- Date Complaint: 2024-07-20
- VIN: SALRU2RVXL2
- Components: UNKNOWN OR OTHER
- Summary: Driving with my children, right rear door all of a sudden opened without warning. Doors were all locked. Pulled over, closed the door but latch was not catching with door. It's as if nothing was holding the door in place. I had to have my 14 year old daughter hold the car door while we canceled our vacation and drove three hours back home.
Land rover Discovery 2019
- Date Of Incident: 2024-05-18
- Date Complaint: 2024-06-16
- VIN: SALRG2RVXK2
- Components: ENGINE
- Summary: On May 18, 2024 at approximately 4pm, my husband turned on my 2019 Land Rover Discovery from a cold start after sitting parked for about 20 minutes. We heard a slight rattle upon start-up, so he turned the car ignition off. He restarted the car after about a minute and we did not hear the rattle. We began driving the car and after about 2-3 miles, the car started shuddering and began slowing down but did not completely stall. My husband turned off the car again and we waited for a couple of minutes and he restarted the car. It drove fine for about a mile and began shuddering/hesitating again as we were driving. Then the car made a loud warning sound, a warning light flickered on the dash and the engine completely turned off as we were driving. We were in the middle of traffic and had we been on the freeway, there would have been catastrophic consequences as the engine completely stopped. We thankfully were able to coast to a side-street on our immediate right and stopped. The engine would not turn over and my husband was unable to restart the car. I immediately made an appointment with my local Land Rover dealership for 3 days later (next available) and had the truck towed there. After inspection, they told me they believed the main bearing in the engine failed due to an oil pump failure and that the engine would need to be replaced. My truck is 5 years old and has less than 100,000 miles (only about 80K). No previous warning lights! A car this expensive and with so few miles with regular maintenance service being performed by either Land Rover or AAA, shouldn’t need a new engine. This is after I’d had the camshaft adjuster/timing chain replaced in this truck by the same dealership only 3 months prior! After speaking to the service person, he informed me that 2 other Land Rovers were sitting in the dealership waiting for the SAME engine and waiting for 4-5 months to be delivered from the manufacturer with NO ETA! Known, dangerous problem! Please help resolve!

Land rover Discovery 2023
- Date Of Incident: 2024-04-13
- Date Complaint: 2024-04-20
- VIN: SALRW4EU3P2
- Components: STEERING,LANE DEPARTURE
- Summary: Dear NHTSA, I am writing to report a safety issue with my 2023 Land Rover Discovery Metropolitan that occurred on April [XXX] 2024. VIN: [XXX] The issue involved the steering wheel locking unexpectedly. After parking the car overnight for 15 hours, I returned to find a message indicating lane departure assist wasn't working, and the steering wheel was completely locked and inoperable. I attempted various troubleshooting steps, including changing driving modes, restarting the car, and checking for software updates, but none resolved the problem. While the car functioned normally in terms of forward and backward movement, the locked steering wheel prevented any turning ability. There were also no warning lights or error messages displayed on the dashboard. The only solution I found was to perform a hard reset by disconnecting the negative battery cable for 3 minutes and then reconnecting it. It's concerning that a similar issue appears to be reported by other Land Rover owners online, particularly with Defender models. [XXX] My primary concern is the possibility of this malfunction occurring while driving, which could lead to a serious accident. There seems to be no guarantee that this isn't a potential risk. I will be in contact with the Land Rover dealership locally and urge NHTSA to investigate this potential safety concern with Land Rover vehicles. Thank you for your time and attention to this matter. Sincerely, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

- Date Complaint: 2024-02-17
- VIN: SALRR2RK4K2
- Components: VISIBILITY/WIPER
- Summary: The vehicle leaks water from the top, middle and top right (passenger) of the windshield. Whenever it's raining water drips down the inside of the windshield and falls on the dash. in the mornings, after heavy rains, water can be found on the drivers and passengers seat, as well as in the cupholders this waterfalls all over the central electronic system and navigation, and seems only a matter of time before these systems will fail as well. When reporting it to the dealer, the dealer mentioned that this has been a common problem for this generation discovery, however, are not willing to replace the windshield under warranty.
Land rover Discovery 2018
- Date Of Incident: 2024-02-02
- Date Complaint: 2024-02-06
- VIN: SALRR2RV1JA
- Components: STRUCTURE
- Summary: At the end of 2022 and early last year, I had multiple issues with the roof of my 2018 Land Rover Discovery coming apart/detached from the roof. On [XXX] a piece of my roof came off again that had already been replaced in 2023. There are four separate roof pieces and this is the fourth time one has separated from the vehicle (I believe three of the pieces at this point have detached). Two times, the roof pieces came off while I was driving on the highway, this could have seriously injured someone, luckily neither time hit a car or pedestrian. Land Rover will not accept that this is an issue with the build/body of the vehicle. I found a Land Rover forum where many people are having these same issues: [XXX] I am concerned that this will happen on the highway, cause an accident, and owner's will be held liable. I have attached multiple pictures I have taken reflecting this issue over the last year and a half, I tried to add more but I am receiving an error message.

Land rover Discovery 2018
- Date Of Incident: 2024-01-22
- Date Complaint: 2024-01-29
- VIN: SALRT2RV3JA
- Components: STRUCTURE
- Summary: To whom it may concern, I am writing to file a complaint about a serious defect in my Land Rover Discovery vehicle. The defect is a roof leakage near the windshield where it attaches to the body. This causes water to seep into the interior of the car and damage the electrical components. The service technician at the dealership informed me that they need to break the windshield in order to fix the leak and then replace the windshield. The estimate for this repair was around $3,500, which is unacceptable for a relatively new vehicle. I bought this pre-inspected vehicle in mid-2022 from the Land Rover dealership. I have learned from online sources that this is a common problem with many Land Rover vehicles, and that it poses a safety hazard as well as a financial burden for the owners. I request that you investigate this issue and issue a recall for all affected vehicles. I also request that you reimburse me for the cost of the repair or provide me with a replacement vehicle. I appreciate your attention to this matter and hope to hear from you soon.

I hope you're doing well! I just wanted to share my experience with my used disco. I've had it for two years now and it's been great! While it may not be the most fuel-efficient vehicle out there, it's definitely a joy to drive. Plus, it's built with a lot of character and can handle any suburban pothole or off-road obstacle with ease. Just keep in mind that labor and spare parts can be a bit pricey. Overall, I highly recommend it!

The Disco II has been the best SUV I've driven or owned, including the Jeep, Blazer, Tahoe, and ML 320. It drives great, and although the seat buttons and the cupholders are in bad places, you get used to them. Additionally, the climate control system is awesome.

Vehicle year: 2020
I leased the Discovery when it first came out in 2017. The SE model had a 6-cylinder engine that I absolutely loved. It had great acceleration and power, and the ride was both soft and sturdy. What I appreciated most about the ride was that it wasn't too springy like a Buick or Tahoe. The chassis absorbed a ton of road vibration and bumps, yet maintained a rigidity that made it feel controlled. Although I almost bought the car at the end of the lease, I ended up purchasing a new Defender instead. Throughout my time with the Discovery, I had zero issues with the car, except for the infotainment unit that would turn off every now and then (once a month). The blip would last maybe a few seconds, and then it would just reboot itself. Not a game changer. I drove the car hard and often and had zero complaints or mechanical issues. The engine was very reliable and efficient for a car of this size. I would definitely recommend it. I love the Discovery, but now I am a proud Defender owner!!!

Vehicle year: 2023
Hi there! Thank you for considering this car. I wanted to let you know that most of the reviews you may have seen are from the initial rollout back in 2018 and 2019, when the media system wasn't as straightforward. However, I'm happy to report that I've only experienced one minor issue with a dash latch so far. Overall, my car works great and I'm really pleased with it. Even though I only bought the 4 cylinder P300, it still works great and the gas mileage is tracked by the car by the second and on the app, which is pretty cool. I haven't had any real issues and I'm very happy with my purchase. I suspect that they've worked out a lot of the kinks in this now 5-6 year old model, so it's definitely a great value for the money. Let me know if you have any questions!
Are you having problems with your Land rover Discovery?

This vehicle has been great! No problems whatsoever. It starts every time, and there are no squeaks or rattles. It's comfortable, quiet, and fun to drive. It's truly a great car.
Rocio Kihn 2024-11-25

The driver's seat and steering wheel do not adjust enough to accommodate my comfort. Additionally, the gas and brake pedals are too close together for my liking. As a person who is 6'1'' and 220 pounds, I require more space to operate the vehicle with ease.
Raleigh Huel 2024-11-24
Vehicle year: 1997
Bought new and initially had loads of problems, mostly electrical related. The window motors had to be replaced 5 times, even though there were only 4 windows! The front and rear sun roof motors had to be replaced twice each. Thankfully, the warranty covered everything, but it was quite a hassle. However, the dealer has been great and very dependable for the last three years or so.
Ramiro Klein 2024-11-19
Vehicle year: 1996
My previous vehicle, a 4Runner, never gave me any issues, unlike this one which has required multiple trips to the shop. Although I had to spend $6000 to repair the valves at 45,000 miles and $3000 for some leaking a couple of years later, I have spent an average of $1500 per year on maintenance and minor repairs. It is frustrating to have to use the highest grade gasoline and still face these problems. Additionally, the cupholder is not very sturdy and can barely hold two cans of coke.
Ola Quitzon 2024-11-08
Vehicle year: 1998
I absolutely love the styling and ruggedness of the Land Rover. It's the reason I purchased mine 3 years ago. While I haven't had any major issues with it, the check engine light seems to come on every other month or so, which can be quite frustrating when I have to take it to Land Rover. Additionally, I've noticed that these vehicles tend to depreciate more quickly than any other vehicle I've owned. If you're looking to buy one, I would recommend buying for life or be prepared to lose money.
