WHEN I TURNED MY CAR ON IN THE MORNING THE STEREO WAS NOT WORKING AND YOU COULD HEAR CRACKLING. I THEN WAS DROPPING MY SON OFF AT SCHOOL AND WE WERE GOING SLOW BECAUSE WE WERE IN THE SCHOOL ZONE.MAYBE 5-10 MPH I SMELLED SMOKE AND THEN LOOKED BACK AND SAW SMOKE COMING FROM INSIDE THE CAR WHERE THE READING LIGHT IS IN THE BACK. I HAD TO PARK MY TRUCK AT MY DADS CAR BECAUSE I DID NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING IT. I GOOGLED AND FOUND THAT A LOT OF RANGE ROVER HAVE A FAULTY SUNROOF TO WHERE WATER LEAKS CAUSING ELECTRICAL DAMAGE. THIS WAS ALSO WHAT THE RANGE ROVER SPECIALIST TOLD ME HE HAS SEEN HAPPEN. MY TRUCK MODEL HOWEVER HAS YET TO BE RECALLED. BUT THERE ARE OTHER MODELS THAT HAVE BEEN RECALLED FOR THIS SUNROOF ISSUE. IT IS CLEARLY SOMETHING LAND ROVER VEHICLES HAVE AN ISSUE WITH. I AM OUT OF WARRANTY JUST A MONTH AGO. WHEN I WENT YESTERDAY TO MY DADS HOUSE TO GET SOMETHING OUT OF MY TRUCK IT WAS COVERED IN MOLD. THIS IS BECAUSE THERE IS SO MUCH WATER THAT SEEPED THROUGH THE SIDES OF THE CAR. YOU CAN TELL BECAUSE THE MOLD WAS COMING FROM THE SEATBELT HOLES AND SUCH.

I RECEIVED RECALL NOTICE N336 IN JULY. MY PASSENGER REAR DOOR HAS SWUNG OPEN IN TRAFFIC 4 DIFFERENT TIMES AS I AM MAKING RIGHT HAND TURNS IN BUSY INTERSECTIONS!!!! I HAVE CONTACTED LANDROVER AND LOCAL DEALERSHIP TO TRY TO GET IT FIXED BUT THEY SAY THEY DO NOT HAVE THE PARTS TO FIX THE PROBLEM YET. IT HAS BEEN 6 WEEKS SINCE THE RECALL NOTICE WAS ISSUED. THAT SHOULD BE PLENTY OF TIME!! THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY RISK AND IT CONTINUES TO HAPPEN!!!!
