We've owned 5 rovers. A year ago we bought a 2011 Range Rover. My wife was on the freeway going 70 when without warning the engine shut off. No check engine light no nothing. Also, no power breaks or power steering. This happened last summer. She had been driving for 40 minutes. We had the Rover towed home and once it was here it started and ran fine. No problems found. I was thinking she was crazy. Well 6 months later I was coming back from Dallas doing about 70 when the engine dropped to 10k rpm and no pedal response then dropped to 0 and no running engine, power everything was gone. I got off the road and parked. It would not start. The starter didn't ever try to start. Just nothing happened when I pushed the start button. I call a tow company and when they got there the ROVER started fine and we drove it onto the truck bed. Got home drove it off the tow truck and haven't had another problem since.
Took it to 2 dealers and they found no problems. I'm thinking it was the fuel pump, fuel filter, or secondary fuel pump up by the engine. it's like it over heated then after 45 minutes it runs fine. Problem is I don't have a clue what's wrong and I'm afraid to drive very far. Any suggestion or information on this problem would be much appreciated. Has it ever happened to anyone else?
