Overview

2014 Land Rover LR4

The 2014 Land Rover LR4 combines rugged off-road prowess with a luxurious interior, making it a compelling choice for those seeking a capable and comfortable SUV. However, potential buyers should be aware of its reliability record. A critical recall concerning the fuel system, which carries a fire risk, necessitates careful verification of repairs. Despite a lack of logged owner complaints, a high Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) count suggests numerous potential issues that could arise over its lifespan. Fuel economy is modest, contributing to higher running costs.

Critical Failure Risk

A critical recall (N623) addresses a cracking fuel outlet flange that can lead to fuel leaks and a fire risk. This issue affects a broad range of model years.

Early detection can help you avoid a $500-$1,500 repair.
