the driver's side from door latch is not operating correctly. the driver's side front door opens when the car is in motion. this happened in a parking lot while trying to leave the lot. we may have been going about 15mph. the door latch is not working at all now. the door will not stay closed at all. there is a current recall for the same issue but Land Rover says that my vin number is not included in the recall. Maybe a larger recall needs to be issued.

Door latch doesn't engage, door opens freely while driving. 2nd time reporting, no feedback! brand has a issue. Dealer wants to charge for diagnostic and fix. It's a manufacturing flaw

When using keyless entry, walking up to door and opening without unlocking, the door latch won't hold closed. Causing the door to swing freely. I've had to try to lock and unlock or start and turn off my truck. After 15-30 min, it will usually latch. But there's no concrete remedy. The first time it happened I didn't realize it. Taking a right hand turn and my door flew open. It's super dangerous! the first time it happened was June 6th. This has happened about 4 times in the past month. After researching the issue, I've found that this is common in range rovers. Land Rover hasn't been a help. You can't get through to their main office. The local dealership wants to charge me for diagnostic fees and repairs.
