Overview

2015 Land Rover Range Rover

The 2015 Land Rover Range Rover offers undeniable luxury and off-road prowess, but used car shoppers should proceed with caution. This model year is marked by a substantial number of recalls, many related to critical safety systems like steering and airbags. While complaint data is minimal, the extensive recall activity, including repeated campaigns for steering knuckle issues, suggests underlying manufacturing or design concerns. The high TSB count further indicates a propensity for component-level issues. Expect average fuel economy for its class, but be prepared for potential repair costs associated with its complex systems.

Critical Failure Risk

Recalls indicate potential cracking of the front suspension upper knuckle joint, leading to suspension arm detachment. This is a critical safety concern that requires immediate attention if symptoms arise.

Early detection can help you avoid a $1,500-$3,000 repair.
