2005 Land Rover LR3

These are unverified consumer reports filed with NHTSA, shown as submitted.

• 12/08/2005· VISIBILITY

  DUE TO COLD CLIMATE PACKAGE, VERTICAL LINES IN WINDSHIELD USED TO HEAT WINDSHIELD, DISTORTS VISION IN THE DARK. IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE CLEARLY AT NIGHT. ONCOMING HEADLIGHTS OR STREET LIGHTS OR BRAKE LIGHTS DISTORT VISION AND CREATES A PRISM IN THE GLASS. THIS IS CAUSING A SAFETY ISSUE FOR ME AND MAKES THE VEHICLE DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. *NM

• 11/21/2019· FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

  SINCE PURCHASING MY SECOND HAND 2005 LAND ROVER LR3 IN 2013, I HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE FUEL SYSTEM. I EXPERIENCE DRIVABILITY CONCERNS SUCH AS HESITATION, MISFIRE, STALLING, ROUGH RUNNING, AND DIFFICULTY IN STARTING, AND THE 'CHECK ENGINE' LIGHT IS ALMOST ALWAYS ILLUMINATED. I HAVE BEEN CONCERNED ABOUT THESE ISSUES, AND HAVE SPENT A LOT OF MONEY CHASING THE PROBLEM BY REPLACING EQUIPMENT AND SPENDING A LOT OF TIME IN DOING SO. THE IDENTIFICATION OF THIS ISSUE BEING A RECALL ISSUE FOR 17263 OTHER LAND ROVERS LR3 (NHTSA RECALL CAMPAIGN ID 05V376000) NOT DISCOVERED UNTIL I WAS RESEARCHING THE VALUE OF MY VEHICLE IN ORDER TO SELL IT. WHILE ON THE KELLY BLUE BOOK WEBSITE, I WAS ALERTED THERE WERE 2 RECALLS FOR 2005 LAND ROVER LR3. AFTER READING THE FIRST RECALL DESCRIPTION, I REALIZED THAT I HAVE HAD THE IDENTICAL ISSUES WITH MY VEHICLE. HOWEVER, AFTER INPUTTING MY VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION NUMBER, THE SITE STATED THAT MY VEHICLE VIN WAS NOT ASSOCIATED WITH THE RECALL. I FOUND THIS TO BE VERY DISCONCERTING, AS I HAVE THE IDENTICAL ISSUE. I THEN CALLED LAND ROVER TO SPEAK DIRECTLY TO THE MANUFACTURER. I WAS TOLD THAT MY VEHICLE WAS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY. I STATED THAT SAFETY RECALLS WERE NOT ASSOCIATED WITH WARRANTIES. I WAS THEN ASKED FOR, AND PROVIDED MY VIN. THE REPRESENTATIVE STATED THAT MY VEHICLE WAS NOT COVERED UNDER THE RECALL AND I HAD NO RECOURSE. I ASKED HIM, GIVEN THAT OVER 17,000 2005 LAND ROVER LR3 HAD BEEN RECALLED DUE TO THE EXACT SAME ISSUE, WHAT WERE THE ODDS OF MINE HAVING THE SAME PIECE OF FAULTY EQUIPMENT. HE AGAIN STATED THAT SINCE MY VIN WAS NOT LISTED, IT WAS NOT COVERED BY THE RECALL, AND I HAVE NO RECOURSE. HE THEN DISMISSED ME AND HUNG UP. MY WIFE HAD THE STALL ISSUE OCCUR THIS MORNING ON HER DRIVE TO WORK AT 06:30 AM!

  PULLED INTO PARKING LOT AND CAR STALLED. TRIED RESTARTING AND PASSERBY SHOUTED TO STOP REPORTING FUEL GUSHING OUT FROM UNDER CAR. HAD CAR TOWED AND FIRE DEPARTMENT CLEAN UP FUEL. HAD THIS HAPPENED ON THE HIGHWAY CAR COULD HAVE CAUGHT FIRE. PARTS SAVED. PROBLEM RESULTED FROM CRACKED CONNECTOR ON FUEL TANK SENDING UNIT. THIS RESULTED IN THE FUEL LINE SEPARATING FROM THE FUEL TANK SO THAT THE FUEL PUMP WAS FORCING FUEL OUT AND IT WAS SPREADING ALL OVER THE UNDERSIDE OF THE CAR. SENDING UNIT WAS REPLACED AND PROBLEM FIXED. *TR

  JUST AS EXPERIENCED BY OTHERS, MY 2005 LAND ROVER LR3 EXPERIENCED WATER BUILD UP INTO THE DRIVER'S SIDE OF THE VEHICLE (APPROX 3 IN. DEEP OF WATER BOTH IN DRIVER AND REAR PASSENGER AREA AFTER HEAVY RAIN). ACCORDING TO THE DEALERSHIP, WATER DRIPPED ALONG THE FRAME ON WHICH THE WINDSHIELD IS MOUNTED AFTER A HEAVY RAIN AND FLOODED THE INSIDE. THIS WAS APPARENTLY DUE TO CLOGGED DRAINAGE TUBES. A FEW DAYS LATER, THE PARKING BRAKE FAILED TO OPERATE AND THE WARNING LIGHT FOR THE SYSTEM CAME ON. THE PARKING BRAKE WAS NEVER REPAIRED / IS STILL NOT OPERABLE. ALTHOUGH THE DEALERSHIP SAID THE TUBES WERE FIXED, THIS FLOODING OCCURRENCE HAS HAPPENED 4 MORE TIMES. NO RECOMMENDATIONS WERE GIVEN TO AVOID FUTURE OCCURRENCES, OR GUARANTEES GIVEN THAT ADDITIONAL SYSTEMS AFFECTED BY WATER DAMAGE (INCLUDING ONES VITAL TO SUPPORTING THE VEHICLE IN MOTION) WILL NOT FAIL. *TR

  WE HAVE OWNED THE LR3 MODEL OF LAND ROVER SINCE DEC. 2004, AND SINCE THE CAR WAS SIX MONTHS UP TO THE PRESENT DAY, THE CARE EXPERIENCES TOTAL SYSTEM FAILURE AT ANY GIVEN RANDOM POINT IN TIME. WHEN THIS FAILURE OCCURS ONE CAN NOT CONTROL THE CAR, CAN NOT BRAKE, CAN NOT ACCELERATE, IT JUST FREEZES, AND STALLS ON YOU. I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY IN JUNE WHEN THIS FIRST HAPPENED AND THIS OCCURRED TO ME THREE TIMES IN A ROW WITHIN HOURS. I HAD TO WAIT FOR THE CAR TO KICK ITSELF OUT OF ITS FROZEN TRANCE AND REGAINED CONTROL. TOOK IT THE NEXT DAY TO THE SERVICE AND THEY COULD NOT RE-CREATE THE PROBLEM SO THEY DID NOTHING. I ALSO FELT THEY DID NOT TAKE MY COMPLAINT SERIOUSLY. IT HAPPENED AGAIN IN AUGUST AND THEN IN SEPTEMBER AND THEY SAID THE CAR NEEDED SOFTWARE UPDATING, OR AT LEAST THAT WAS THE EXCUSE THEY GAVE TO ME THAT OCCASION. I KEPT EXPRESSING MY CONCERNS THAT IT WAS MORE THAN SOFTWARE BUT TO NO AVAIL. THEN SOON AFTER, I COULD NOT TURN THE CAR ON, THE CAR WOULD STALL WITH FREQUENCY AND SOME MORE COMPLETE FAILURES. SO AGAIN I TOOK IT BACK IN, AND THEY EXPERIENCED THIS FAILURE CONDITION TWICE IN THEIR OWN SERVICE AREA. THE CAR WAS IN SERVICE FOR ALMOST TWO WEEKS AND THEY CONCLUDED IT WAS "CABLE" TROUBLES. THERE IS NO GUARANTEE IN OUR OPINION THAT THIS WILL NOT HAPPEN AGAIN AND IF IT DOES THIS SERIOUSLY POSES A THREAT OF LIFE OR RISK OF INJURY NOT ONLY TO ME, MY SPOUSE, BUT ALSO TO MY CHILDREN, OR OTHERS ON THE ROAD. I AM NOT WILLING TO TAKE THAT GAMBLE AND WE ARE IN DISCUSSIONS ON REPLACING THE VEHICLE OR IF ALL ELSE FAILS WE WILL GO TO LITIGATION. *NM

• 09/24/2025· POWER TRAIN,ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,SERVICE BRAKES

  After a heavy rainstorm in [XXX] , my 2005 Land Rover LR3 experienced catastrophic water intrusion through the A-pillar design flaw documented in Land Rover’s own TSB LA501-007. When I opened the passenger door, ~1.5 inches of water poured out. Immediately afterward, the vehicle developed multiple failures: flickering lights, radio inoperative, driver’s window stuck, ABS warning lights illuminated, “Transmission Fault” error displayed, and the air suspension automatically lowered into its fail-safe mode. This is not wear and tear. Land Rover has acknowledged the defect internally (A-pillar locator holes allowing water ingress into the footwell), but never issued a recall or owner notification. Flooding the footwell shorts the electrical/fuse boxes, causing cascading failures in braking, suspension, powertrain, and electrical systems. This presents a serious safety hazard as the vehicle may lose proper braking, suspension height, or drivetrain function simply from exposure to rain. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

• 09/24/2008· FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE

  THE FUEL TANK CONNECTOR GOT DISCONNECTED AS WE TRIED TO START THE CAR. THIS RESULTED IN FUEL LEAKING ON THE GARAGE FLOOR. THIS HAPPENED WHEN THE KEY WAS TURNED. FIRE DEPARTMENT WAS CALLED TO MOP UP THE FUEL SPILL AND TO VERIFY THAT THE CAR IS SAFE. CAR WAS TAKEN TO DEALER TO BE REPAIRED. DEALER WASN'T SURE WHAT CAUSED THE PROBLEM BUT AS PER THE DEALER, IT WAS DUE TO THE FUEL CONNECTOR GETTING DIS-CONNECTED AND HE INSTALLED THE FUEL CONNECTOR AGAIN. *TR

• 09/17/2016· AIR BAGS

  AIR BAG LIGHT IS ON DASH. TOOK TO DEALER AND THEY SAID AIRBAG AND CLOCK SPRING ARE BAD BECAUSE THE WIRING INSIDE THE AIRBAG AND CLOCK SPRING ARE BAD AND I NEED TO PAY TO REPLACE OTHERWISE MY AIRBAG WILL NOT DEPLOY IF NEEDED. I ASKED THEM ABOUT RECALL 08V248000 (LAND ROVER IS RECALLING OVER 37,000 LR3 AND RANGE ROVER SPORT VEHICLES. THE RELATIVE MOTION BETWEEN THE STEERING WHEEL HUB AND/OR STEERING COLUMN COWL WITH THE CLOCKSPRING, WHICH CONTAINS AIR BAG CIRCUITRY, COULD CAUSE A FRACTURE IN THE DRIVER-SIDE AIR BAG WIRING CONNECTION.) AND THEY SAID NOPE NOT COVERED. I BELIEVE THIS RECALL SHOULD BE TAKEN INTO CONSIDERATION WHEN EVALUATING MY AIRBAG.

  ALL FOUR TIRES HAD TO BE REPLACED BECAUSE OF EXCESSIVE WEARING AND CUPPING ON THE INSIDE OF THE TIRES. ALL FOUR TIRES WERE WORN TO THE WEAR BARS, WITH LESS THAN 16,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE. IF THIS WAS NOT PERSONALLY NOTICED, A FAILURE OF A TIRE COULD HAVE LEAD TO A ROLL OVER OF THE VEHICLE. THE TIRES WERE REPLACED BY THE DEALER WITH MYSELF PAYING FOR THEM, AND TO PAY FOR A WHEEL ALIGNMENT. THE WHEELS ARE ALWAYS IN A NEGATIVE CAMBER, BY DESIGN, WHICH CAUSES THE TIRES TO WEAR ON THE INSIDE. I HAVE HEARD OF OTHERS HAVING THIS PROBLEM, WHILE IN FOR SERVICE I LOOKED AT OTHER VEHICLES IN FOR SERVICE, AND THEY ALL HAD TIRE WEAR ON THE INSIDE. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS BEFORE SOME SOCCER MOM ROLLS OVER AND CHILDREN ARE INJURED. *JB

  THIS VEHICLE HAS HAD NUMEROUS PROBLEMS FROM EXCESSIVE TIRE WEAR TO CRUISE CONTROL NOT SHUTTING OFF WHEN DEPRESSING THE CONTROL BUTTON ON THE STEERING WHEEL. NOW THERE IS A EXCESSIVE WATER LEAK THAT HAS CAUSED ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS SUCH AS PARKING BRAKE MALFUNCTION, WINDSHIELD WASHER TO FAIL, NUMEROUS WARNING LIGHTS COMING ON. THIS ALL CAUSES ME TO NOT USE THE VEHICLE, UNTIL IT DRIES OUT, FOR FEAR THAT THE LEAK FROM THE SUNROOF WILL CAUSE ELECTRICAL FAILURE WHILE DRIVING. ALSO THE WIRING IS PROBABLY BECOMING VERY CORRODED AND COULD SHORT OUT CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO CATCH FIRE.

I SEE GAS POURING OUT THE RIGHT REAR OF THE CAR, ON TOP OF THE HOT EXHAUST PIPE... CAUSING THE GAS TO VAPORIZE AND SMOKE. I OPENED THE FUEL DOOR AND REMOVED THE FUEL CAP. SOUNDS LIKE A LIQUID WAS VIOLENTLY BOILING CAME FROM THE FILLER PIPE. A PASSING MOTORCYCLIST WHO WAS BEHIND ME STOPPED TO LET ME KNOW HE THOUGHT I WAS ALSO LEAKING GAS. THE PROBLEM CONTINUED AS I TRIED TO DRIVE ANOTHER LEG OF 3 MILES OR SO. FINALLY I STOPPED THE CAR FOR ABOUT 30 MINUTES. WHEN I RESTARTED THE CAR, THE PROBLEM SEEMED TO GO AWAY. MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE HERE... TO ME IT SEEMS LIKE THERE WAS SOME PUMP AT WORK, PUMPING GAS FROM THE TANK OUT TO THE OVERFILL HOLE OF THE FILLER PIPE....

DELAY BETWEEN FORWARD MOVEMET AND APPLIED GAS PEDAL IS SEVERAL SECONDS AND HAPPENS OFTEN. VEHICHLE HAS BEEN INSPECTED SEVERAL TIMES WITH NO VISIBLE ISSUES AND NO ERROR CODES BELIEVE TO BE PRESENT. WHEN READING ON THE ONLINE LAND ROVER FORUMS THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM AND HAS RESULTED IN WHAT IS LIKELY TO BE SEVERAL THOUSAND TRANSMISSION REPLACEMENTS BEFORE 85,000 MILES AND IS NOT SAFE. CONTINUES TO TAKE PLACE SINCE VEHICLE PURCAHSE. I HAVE REPLACED TRANSMISSION AT MY OWN COST AND DEFECT CONTINUES TO TAKE PLACE!
