What 2014 Land Rover LR4 owners say
Engine & cooling
According to dealer, the connecting rod became dislodged and forced itself through the engine block rendering the entire engine and all related components (e.g. supercharger) inoperable and requiring replacement.
The auto start stop on this vehicle is extremely violent in its restarts. If your foot is not pressed hard on the brakes, the vehicle will jerk forward when it automatically restarts. This has been a complaint since the LR4 was refreshed in 2014 with auto stop start. It seems like a software update to the way the transmission reengages after a start would fix this issue. If you're unaware that this can happen, the car could lunge forward enough to hit the car in front of you. I have been told by my local dealer that there is no software update available and the the system is just jerky. That is unacceptable. Additionally, the rotary shifter on the LR4 does not automatically engage park when the door is opened like is now required for all FCA vehicles after their recall. …
Electrical system
Communication error with system. This controls all functions from braking to cameras to suspension and audio/phone. Research shows that this is a habitual issue on almost all Land Rover models with no fix except to replace entire infotainment center which parts only range from 3-6k. Something needed to be done. This is supposed to be a high end vehicle. There are so many blogs with the same issue with no fix
An airbag malfunction light illuminated on my dash today. I scanned the car for stored faults and found several, but one in particular was for the passenger frontal airbag/seat. The fault code said there was improper serial data values received. The car has just crossed over 50,000 miles within the last month, however it is still within 4 years of purchase. Since the mileage is over 50,000 miles, I was told by dealership there is no warranty left for the airbags. Since this is a major safety feature, I believe this should be repaired at manufacturer's expense. The passenger side door lock also failed at the same time. I have attempted to resolve the issue by opening and closing the door, adjusting the seat position and fastening and unfastening the passenger seat belt but the light still remains on.
Transmission & drivetrain
The contact owns a 2014 Land Rover LR4. The contact stated that while his wife was operating the vehicle, the gear selector would not shift out of Drive. Additionally, the vehicle could not be driven in Reverse. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic who diagnosed that the drive shaft assembly and the transmission control module were faulty and needed to be replaced. The contact was informed that the driveshaft assembly was on back-order and currently unavailable. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The local dealer was notified of the failure. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 120,000.
