My door locks are failing and land rover / range rover is telling me it has nothing to do with your prior investigation, recall or other. First, I couldn't get my passenger door to lock, then it suddenly started working again. Now, I can't get my driver side to lock, and my passenger is fine. Land rover claims they already updated my "software" but I think it's something much more detailed than that, as there are literally 1000's of people asking on the internet about the exact same problem. Not sure if this will result in my doors flying open suddenly, as has been documented in prior cases with the federal safety agency for my year range rover - but I truly feel as if they know about a problem with their door actuators, software and locks but are unwilling to fix them in their dealership under recall or warranty. Several dealers have noted for my VIN, they've developed new actuators because of flaws in previous versions and want me to spend upwards of $2k to have replacements.

The driver side door latch does not lock and it doesn't respond to the key fob or interior switch. This condition state does not change if the vehicle is mobile or stationary.

While traveling approximately 15 MPH (inside my subdivision as was only leaving the my garage to commute into work) and making a right hand turn, the left side passenger door opened by itself. Initially unaware of this (inside lights did not turn on, nor the passenger dash highlighting any information) I continued to drive, only to have the now open door smash into a brick column which was to the left side of me. I immediately pulled to the right to assess what was happening and found that the door was dented and scratched but now the door latch was now engaged and the door not able to close. Thankfully my 8 month old daughter, who usually sits on this side of the car was not with me. I am extremely alarmed and concerned that the door could become opened by itself and now understand that this matter is being investigated by the federal safety agency due to others having had similar issues. I want to document that I too have had this happen to me and am doing my best now to work with land rover directly to assist me in fixing the issue, including the root cause and body work. However, the dealer representative is already suggesting no fault by the vehicle.

Right rear door will not lock when using the remote or electric lock feature. In order to lock the door you must manually depress the lock feature. When driving the door remains unlocked and therefore could open.

While driving home yesterday my driver door flew open while going down hwy 167 south. ( I know the door was shut! It was locked when I got in the car) while driving the rest of the way home holding the driver door shut ! Because it wouldn't close!( not even the soft shut door close) I got home and research for recalls or safety issues... There is a recall but, says it was done a year ago! But, apparently the recall part or software didn't work! I almost fell out of the SUV yesterday while driving!
