Are Range Rover SUVs Reliable?
When buying a used car, one of your most significant considerations should be reliability. Used car prices remain near record highs; therefore, getting a quality car for that inflated price is crucial. Sadly, Range Rover models are haunted by a reputation for lackluster reliability. Cynical critics say used models are known for “typical British engineering,” which translates into leaks, breakdowns, and other mechanical and electrical issues compounded by unusual malfunctions.
According to Autotrader executive editor Brian Moody, the Range Rover is not the most reliable and faces significantly more problems than other used cars — especially with the electronics.
“Used Range Rovers are often less reliable than other types of used cars,” Moody said. “While Range Rovers do exceptionally well off-road, some of the electronics and more sophisticated components can be finicky and expensive to repair.”
Moody said electronics such as the infotainment systems are notoriously bad with Range Rovers, and problems can worsen as the car ages. Regrettably, the issues don’t stop there. |
