Common problems with the 2011 Range Rover

Mileage when owners reported a problem with the 2011 Range Rover
Too few complaints on the 2011 Range Rover list a mileage to say when owners reported problems: 9 of its 15 complaints list a mileage (115 to 115,000 miles), and a median is given here only with 10 or more.
These mileages say when owners reported a problem, not when a 2011 Range Rover wears out. NHTSA's file holds only vehicles whose owners complained; one that ran without a problem never appears in it, so it gives no lifespan and no cutoff, and how a vehicle was maintained matters more than any one odometer reading.
Every model year together: Half of the 483 NHTSA owner complaints on the Land Rover Range Rover that list mileage came after 65,000 miles (NHTSA complaints file of November 11, 2026). How many miles will a Land Rover Range Rover last? →
Is the 2011 Range Rover a good year?
Complaint counts cannot say whether the 2011 is a good or a bad Range Rover: they rise with how many were sold and how long they have been on the road. They show how the 2011 compares with the other model years in NHTSA's file.
With 15 complaints, the 2011 ranks 22nd of the 30 Land Rover Range Rover model years from 1990 to 2025 with 10 or more complaints, counting from the most. The most: the 2003 (97). The fewest: the 1994 (10).
Recent model years have had less time to collect complaints, so their counts are still growing. No year is ranked by mileage here, because a year's median mileage mostly follows its age.
| Model year | Owner complaints | Listing mileage | Median mileage |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1990 Range Rover | 13 | 0 | Under 10 mileages |

What these figures can and cannot tell you
- Complaints are owners’ reports to NHTSA. NHTSA publishes them without verifying them: a complaint is an allegation, not a defect finding.
- The mileage is what the owner wrote on the complaint; NHTSA does not check it against the odometer.
- The make, model and model year are the ones on the complaint. NHTSA records them as filed, so a few complaints sit under a model year the name was not sold in.
- They are not a lifespan study. The file holds only vehicles whose owners reported a problem, so these figures do not say how long a typical 2011 Range Rover lasts.
- A complaint count rises with how many vehicles were sold and how long they have been on the road, so it is not a rating of the 2011 Range Rover.
- Nothing here describes one vehicle: its title brands, odometer readings, accidents and open recalls are in the records for its own VIN.
- 6 of the 15 complaints on the 2011 Land Rover Range Rover give no usable mileage (blank, zero, a filler such as 999999, or over 500,000) and are left out of every mileage figure.
- NHTSA names counted: RANGE ROVER and RANGE ROVER PHEV. NHTSA files some vehicles under several names (a series name and a trim name, for example); this page counts only these.
- Recall-file names matched: RANGE ROVER and RANGE ROVER PHEV.
