2009 Land rover Range rover problems
The Land Rover Range Rover, generally shortened to Range Rover, is a 4x4 luxury SUV produced by Land Rover, a marque and sub-brand of Jaguar Land Rover. The Range Rover line was launched in 1970 by British Leyland and is now in its fifth generation.
Additional models have been launched under the Range Rover name, including the Range Rover Sport, Range Rover Evoque, and Range Rover Velar.
History
The Rover Company (originator of the Land Rover marque) was experimenting with a larger model than the Land Rover Series in 1951, when the Rover P4-based two-wheel-drive "Road Rover" project was developed by Gordon Bashford. This was shelved in 1958 and the idea lay dormant until 1966, when engineers Spen King and Bashford set to work on a new model.
The first Range Rover prototype was built in 1967 with plate number SYE 157F. The design of the Range Rover was finalised in 1969. Twenty-six Velar-badged engineering development vehicles were built between 1969 and 1970 and were road registered with the number plates YVB151H through to YVB177H.
Though being chassis no. 3, YVB 153H is believed to have been the first off the production line as a vehicle in that colour was urgently required for marketing. (The Range Rover with chassis no. 1 was a green model with the registration "YVB 151H", and is now on exhibition at Huddersfield Land Rover Centre, Huddersfield, West Yorkshire). The Velar name was derived from the Italian "velare" meaning to veil or to cover. Range Rover development engineer Geof Miller used the name as a decoy for registering pre-production Range Rovers. The Velar company was registered in London and produced 40 pre-production vehicles that were built between 1967 and 1970.
The Range Rover was launched in 1970. In the early 1970s, the Musée du Louvre in Paris exhibited a Range Rover as an "exemplary work of industrial design".
In 1971, ex-Cream drummer Ginger Baker used the unproven Range Rover to drive from Algeria to Lagos, Nigeria, to set up a recording studio and jam with Fela Kuti. Predating the Paris-Dakar rally the subsequent documentary is replete with such terrain, documenting the vehicle's endurance.
In 1972, the British Trans-Americas Expedition became the first vehicle-based expedition to traverse the Americas from north to south, including traversing the roadless Darién Gap. The specially modified Range Rovers used for this expedition are now on display in the British Motor Industry Heritage Trust collection at Gaydon, Warwickshire.
Range Rover sub-brands have been launched. In 2004, Land Rover debuted the Range Rover Sport, based on the Land Rover Discovery platform. Later models received the latest Range Rover platform. In 2011 came the Range Rover Evoque, and in 2017 the Range Rover Velar (re-using the name of the very first, pre-production Range Rovers).

Common 2009 Land rover Range rover problems
Based on complaints from owners of the Land Rover Range Rover 2009, several common problems have been identified:
- Rear Lights Filling with Rainwater: Some earlier models of the Range Rover 2009 had rear lights that were prone to filling with rainwater. While this issue was typically addressed under warranty, it is advisable for owners to check for this problem to prevent potential electrical issues.
- Air Suspension Failures: The standard air suspension in the Range Rover 2009 can experience failures, with the compressor being a common culprit. Owners are advised to check the responsiveness of the suspension settings and ensure that the car maintains the chosen height when parked to detect any leaks in the system.
- Premature Automatic Gearbox Failures: Although the automatic gearboxes in Range Rovers are generally robust, there have been reports of premature failures in some instances. Owners should be aware of any unusual noises or behaviors related to the gearbox to address potential issues promptly.
- Suspension Wear with Larger Wheels: Vehicles equipped with 20-inch wheels or larger are more prone to suspension wear, particularly in the rear hub bushes. Owners may notice clunking noises over bumps, indicating the need for inspection and potential replacement of these components .
- Brake Pad Replacement: Data suggests that the Range Rover typically requires new brake pads every 30,000 miles, which is earlier than the average for luxury SUVs. Regular maintenance and monitoring of brake performance are essential to ensure safe driving conditions.

TIRES PROBLEM
- Date Of Incident: 2024-06-20
- VIN: SALSK25419A
- Components: TIRES
- Summary: I purchased four Bridgestone Alenza AS Ultra tires (255 / 50R 19 107 W XL front and back) from Costco at 2700 Potomac Mill Circle, Woodbridge, VA on [XXX]. These tires were specifically for a 2009 Range Rover Sport HSE. The odometer reading was 105632 at the time of purchase, and the tires were installed on [XXX]. The present mileage as of today is 118233. However, after a mere 12,000 miles, all four tires are cracked along the bead inside the tire, showing the threads/wire. The tires are all torn in the sidewall at the bead above the inside of the rim edge and are non-repairable. There was no damage to the rim, nor any reason the tire might have been lacerated by the rim. The tire failure appeared to have occurred without provocation, and Costco had just conducted maintenance in April 2024. The tires have an 80,000-mile warranty, so I wonder how all four tires have the same issue on the inside of the tire after only 12,000-mileage has been recorded; it has been only two years. If the tires had failed while driving, this could have been catastrophic for me and my family, which could have ended up in the vehicle losing control and possibly loss of life since all four tires are damaged. The only driving is taking my son to school and driving in the local area for food. I had a tire inspection done with Cosco Tire in April 2024, and Firestone identified this issue during a wheel alignment on all four tires in June 2024. I took the vehicle to NTB and had a mechanic look at it, and the only conclusion they stated was that these were defective tires. This could have been an improper service by Costco, which they said was not there back in April 2024. The only warnings I had were the illuminated lamp of the TPMS, the tire pressure monitoring system, and the low-pressure warning for the tire The vehicle was brought to Costco for two inspections regarding the TPMS, and all the TPMS on the tires were working correctly; they could not determine the cause of the lamp.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,STRUCTURE PROBLEM
- Date Of Incident: 2024-01-28
- VIN: SALSF25409A
- Components: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,STRUCTURE
- Summary: There are KNOWN areas around the A pillar, windshield, and sunroof that leak and allow water to enter the vehicle and pool up in the wiring channels next to the doors, the water causes shorts and corrosion in the wiring which causes faults (Check engine, etc) that the owner is forced to attempt to correct on their own. There are numerous videos made by Land Rover owners over the last 15 years showing the common areas where water enters the vehicle. The average owner is not mechanical inclined and will not pull apart their vehicle to search for places where water is entering. Land Rover knows about this issue and does nothing but charge their customers many hours of labor at the dealership to investigate. The water damage to the wiring has and will cause issues with the vehicle that the average person will or must go to the dealership to attempt a repair.

The truck is really impressive! It handled the recent 24

But 80k to 100k were pretty bad. However, it could drive through 2 feet of snow like a tank and had superior road manners. After 80k miles, it required frequent visits to the shop. Despite its flaws, I loved this car and still miss it. It's important to have tolerance and budget for maintenance and repairs, as the warranty can be pricey and have a deductible.

I understand how you feel about trying a different car brand after driving Mercedes for 15 years. However, I am glad to hear that you are enjoying your new vehicle and find it classy. The ride quality is superb and it makes you feel like royalty. The fit and finish are also impressive. Although it may not be the most eco-friendly option, it still manages to provide a decent 17 miles per gallon, which is better than expected. I am sorry to hear that some people have had negative experiences, but I am happy to hear that your experience has been positive and that you find the car to be reliable. Thank you for sharing your feedback and suggestions for improvement.

Are you having problems with your 2009 Land rover Range rover?
Fritz Purdy 2024-07-07
I recently purchased a Land Rover after trading in my 02 Chevy Tahoe. Unfortunately, I encountered some issues with the car. On the morning after purchasing it, I had trouble starting it up. Over time, I experienced a number of engine and electrical problems, and eventually the transmission broke down. As a result, I decided to file a lemon law suit in January 08. I have since purchased an 08 Chevy Tahoe ltz, which has been performing much better in every category than the Land Rover.
Jarret Powlowski 2024-05-21
I purchased this car for $96,000 in January 2008, but unfortunately, it has had several issues since day one. During the first week, we discovered a cracked exhaust system that needed to be replaced. Additionally, the driver's ventilated heated/cooled seat was not working, and despite many attempts, it had to be completely replaced. The rear brake light filled with water after it rained, so it had to be replaced. The adaptive headlights that are supposed to turn as you go around a corner ended up being 'cross-eyed,' so they replaced the entire passenger side headlight assembly. Unfortunately, the memory functions for the seats, radio, and steering wheel have never worked properly. If you want to see more about my experience, you can check out my video on YouTube under the username rover73.

Please note that it is important to lubricate the transmission and transfer box to prevent damage to the splines. Without proper lubrication, the splines may wear down and cause issues while driving. It is recommended to keep food and water with you at all times, and to take necessary safety precautions while travelling. Thank you.
Quinn Gutkowski 2024-02-11
This car has had some issues, including AC leaks, dead gas suspension, and a faulty gas pump. Additionally, the radio/audio system required a dealer reset for unknown reasons. These issues required multiple trips to the dealership, which was frustrating. However, I ultimately decided to switch to a Lexus, which has been a headache-free experience. It's important to note that as a newcomer, this car may struggle to compete with established brands like BMW or Lexus.
