Failure of the DC-DC converter will result in the loss of 12-Volt system charging and can lead to complete loss of drive power and exterior lighting.
Risk: A loss of drive power increases the risk of a crash.
Fix: Dealers will update the vehicle software, free of charge. Interim letters notifying owners of the safety risk are expected to be mailed November 13, 2026. Additional letters will be sent once the final remedy is available. Owners may contact Land Rover's customer service at 800-637-6837. Land Rover's number for this recall is E008.

Is the 2022 Land Rover Range Rover Sport recalled in the UK or Europe?
Recalls issued by the UK's DVSA and through the EU's Safety Gate system that cover this model and build period. European models can differ from U.S. ones, and "years estimated" means the recall gave no build dates, so confirm your own car with your registration or VIN.
UK DVSARange Rover and Range Rover Sport Panoramic Roof Side Finisher Loose
Risk: The manufacturer has identified a concern on certain Range Rover and Range Rover Sport vehicles where the adhesion process used to re-attach the panoramic roof side finishers during vehicle quality rework operations in the assembly plant may not have been sufficient. An inadequately adhered panoramic roof side finisher could over time come partially or completely loose. This could result in distraction to the driver or other road users or in the event of complete detachment harm to other road users particularly pedestrians or two-wheeled vehicles and increase the risk of injury or a crash.
Fix: Vehicles will have the panoramic roof side finisher removed and securely attached.
UK DVSAAJ20-D6 and AJ20-P6 Engine Oil Filter Housing CrackedD6 and AJ20-P6 Engine Oil Filter Housing Cracked

This could result in oil under pressure leaking and coming into contact with hot components of the engine which may result in a fire. Additionally oil may leak onto the road surface posing a skid hazard.
Fix: Replace the oil filter housing complete with filter and associated O-rings.

As I was driving along a red light came on and within 20 minutes my whole car , electronics and everything shut down on the turnpike and I could barely get off the road and was scared to death It was completely DEAD. I had to call Turnpike assistance and a flatbed Tow truck loaded up my car and it was taken to a dealership I had to have the MHEV DC/DC converter replaced and at an extremely huge cost of 2321.78. In Wayne PA
DC/DC converter completely failed on the highway. shut down immediately while driving.
My 2022 Range Rover Sport had a Charging System Fault Detected warning light come on out of the blue. 5 mins late power steering was not working, then out of nowhere the car died in the middle of a dangerous intersection. It had to be towed 25 miles to where it is under warranty. The DC convertor part s back ordered and there is no date for when it will be available. It has already been a month, with a prediction from the dealer of 4 to 6 more weeks, and no loaner available. It is happening to so many of the cars, they need to call a recall, it is so dangerous.
The contact owns a 2022 Land Rover Range Rover Sport. The contact stated that the vehicle failed to start. No warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was towed to the dealer, who determined that the CVVL (Continuously Variable Valve Lift) gasket had failed and the CVVL system needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure, and a case was filed. The failure mileage was approximately 46,000.
I was driving when an "Electrical Fault Detected" warning came on. The car's instructions were to pull over as soon as possible, as the car's electrical system was draining the battery and the car could shut down within a few miles. We had the car towed to a repair shop where they ran tests on the car and replaced the battery. This did not fix the issue, and they came back a day later to find the brand new battery had drained. I then had it towed to another repair shop who replaced the alternator but that didn't solve the problem so they had it towed to the dealer. The dealer discovered that…
As I was driving my vehicle to my residence, the car lost all power. The engine remained ‘on’, and the engine revved if I pushed the gas pedal, but there was zero acceleration. Fortunately I was able to maneuver/coast to a side street and stop my vehicle safely. I also felt fortunate that no car was following closely behind me which could have created a potential rear-end collision threat. I had very little warning that anything was wrong with the car. Approximately 20 minutes prior to the vehicle losing all power, I was driving to a store and parking in its parking lot. The vehicle warned me…
The contact owns a 2022 Land Rover Range Rover Sport. The contact stated that there was a coolant leak coming from the bottom plate while driving. There was coolant on the ground and in the garage.

The contact associated the failure with NHTSA Campaign Number: 23V221000 (Engine and Engine Cooling). The local dealer was contacted, but the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was contacted and referred the contact to the NHTSA Hotline for assistance. The failure mileage was…
Oil leak and coolant leak took it to dealership while under warranty and they claimed no issues even though I saw the stains on my garage floor and had gear shift issues and black out info camera as well. Car under 70k miles and not end of warranty date but is the end of warranty mileage. Didn’t feel safe on the freeway, had power loss when it was time to restart the car and had smoke under the hood which may result in a fire in the engine compartment that could spread throughout the vehicle. This issue has led to power loss and difficulty controlling the vehicle, increasing the risk of…
VIN# [XXX] I reported complaints during all of my routine oil changes that I had a coolant leak and it smelled like something was burning under my hood. I also told them that I had coolant on my garage floor and that my gears were stalling on my vehicle. I reported these issues when my car had under 10,000 miles and again at the 20,000 mile range. They stated they saw no issues or related recalls. I believe I was intentionally lied to because my car was under warranty at the time and they didn’t want to address the issues. I asked for them to check again prior to the expiration of the factory…

I immediately requested for the dealership to inspect the vehicle and I smelled coolant and saw the coolant on my garage floor the dealership stated they did not find anything. This occurred during my first oil change at around 6,000 miles. It happed again at the second one as well. I had the same issue when I got my oil changed amongst other issues no issues detected. I went to the dealership to get an oil change and the code P00B0-49 was showing the dealership…
In May 2022 with 7151 miles on it, the drive belt exploded and they said it was due to a faulty tensioner. During removal of the tensioner, scraps of the belt were noted stuck in the AC compressor pulley and under the shield and engine compartment. This also caused a loss of coolant. The following fault indicators were on: Check engine light, charging system INOP, and low coolant light as well. Sound very similar to recall# N785 and I think my VIN should be included.
