Electrical system 5,000 mi 7 mo in service crash / fire / tow

HIT A CAR THAT PULLED OUT IN FRONT OF ME AT ABOUT 20MPH AND THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY AND THE SOS BUTTON DID NOT ACTIVATE. THEN I PUSHED IT MANUALLY AND IT FAILED TO MAKE A CALL UNTIL 20 MINS LATER AFTER THE POLICE ARRIVED. VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION IN THE CITY WHEN LOOKING AT SOME OTHER RANGE ROVERS AT THE COLLISION CENTER IT SEEMED LIKE THE AIRBAGS WERE NOT AS SENSITIVE AS THEY SHOULD BE.

Electrical system mileage not reported 3.4 yr in service

Hill decent control error, stability control not available error, and charging system fault detected error while driving. As a result, no breaks while driving.

Electrical system mileage not reported 6.1 yr in service

Faulty code P0A7B and P0A1F for the Battery Energy Control Module BECM was diagnosed. Check engine light appeared and then car shut off at a light when attempting to press accelerator. Was told by dealer the part needed replacement instead of just a software update. A recall was shown in general for my year and type but not specifically for my vehicle. My vehicle should be included with this recall to replace the component.

How to read this

This is what owners reported, not a reliability rating. People file with NHTSA about alarming failures, not routine ones, and complaint volume tracks how many cars were sold.
Failure ages come from the incident date on each complaint, populated on about 83% of records. Mileage is shown where reported — NHTSA’s 2021 system change cut mileage capture to roughly 15%, so it thins out sharply after MY2020.
Every rank compares this vehicle only against others of the same model year. A 2025 car has not had time to accumulate five-year failures, so comparing early-failure share across years is meaningless.
Fourteen make-months distorted by media storms and mass recalls — Toyota in February 2010 ran 11× normal volume across 33 models — are excluded.
Recalls are manufacturer actions and authoritative; complaints are not. A recall listed here may already have been performed on any individual car. Check a specific VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls.
