The bottom part of my front grille came loose. After checking, the fixtures at the top were still ok, but one of the brackets that holds it at the bottom seemed to have broken. Entire piece lies behind the front bumper. The car has never been in an accident, not has been hit in the front. There is no damage to the outside of the grille, no scratches that would have indicated that another car would have hit it. Upon some research, I came across several cases, and it seems to be a known issue with this car. I took it to the dealer, they refused to fix it under the warranty, stated it was my fault. This is a faulty system of holding up the grille, it can come loose at any time, at any speed, and cause damage and accidents. Very unsafe.

The door hinge cables within the door panels comes loose. This prevents the passenger the ability to open the door of the vehicle from the inside. At first my front passenger door came loose so I took it back to the Land Rover dealership and had it fixed by them removing the panel and re-hooking the door cable. Now my driver front door has come loose and I am unable to open my door from the inside. I am now currently waiting on the Land Rover dealership to return my calls to have this fixed. At first this was aggravating, however this is now a safety issue. I have an infant who began gagging and I was unable to get out of the car to get to my backseat to assist my baby from possibly chocking. I had to adjust my seat and then crawl over the seat to escape out the passenger door. This would be an even greater safety concern for the disable, in the case of an accident, or even a fire.

There were poor construction of the B pillar and spot welds that have made the frame less stable. The issue has not been able to be resolved through multiple attempts at repair, and the manufacturer has known this issue and now does not want to repair, replace or refund. This has also created a distracting issue of noise in the driver ear that makes it distrcting to drive. This same issue has been issued as a recall by Subaru for a B pillar welding issue with insufficient spot welds which is the same issue the Land Rover Discovery sport has had and is documented in numberous areas both internal to Land Rover and external sites and sources. This happens when the vehicle is in motion on an surface and is very distracting and is also seemingly a safety problem as reported by the NHTSA as "not having those welds means the strength of the structure is reduced and that could "increase the risk of injury in a crash" Subaru said. In this case the problem could not be fixed, and in the Land Rover issue I have the problems could not be fixed over 6 repair attempts across 2 different Discovery sport vehicles, where the first one was swapped for a second new one which both experience the same problem.

I purchased a brand new 2017 Land Rover Discovery sport hse for my daughter on May 20, 2017 from rusnak Jaguar/Land Rover in anaheim hills, California and it has been at the Land Rover dealership more than it has been in my house. We noticed within a few days of buying the vehicle that there was a loud noise coming from the passenger's side. The dealership confirmed the noise being the B pillar. The service manager instructed a Land Rover lead service tech to do a road test with me and he verified the creaking noise. We have left the vehicle with the dealership many times and after several failed attempts to fix the B pillar (it has been documented that service even used caulking to try and fix the B pillar) which also failed. We are very disappointed that the Land Rover dealership/service center cannot fix the problem after the 4th time. I paid cash for this vehicle and I am not happy at all. I have submitted emails and spoke with the dealer about the concern for my family's safety while the vehicle is being driven. This is a blatant disregard for my family's safety; being that the structural integrity of this vehicle is undermined. This 2017 Land Rover Discovery sport hse is a complete lemon and needs to be replaced immediately since the Land Rover service center has had numerous attempts and ample time to repair B pillar. On the dealerships last attempt to fix the B pillar (by using caulking) it is still creaking with a metal sound.
