I had similar both headlights cracked randomly this Saturday without hitting anything. Took it down to lookers landrover Battersea today, pictures are taken and now booked in for inspection and hopefully it's covered by warranty. Cost of purchasing both headlights is £5k+ Which is an unexpected hit in my pocket especially during this corona virus situation.

My velar still lovely to drive and still enjoying every bit of the car.

Range Rover velar Rdynamic D300 Santorini black with black pack.

 

That looks very bad Aklaw !

As not everyone adds the model year to their signature it's hard to tell if this is isolated to MY18 or if any MY19/20 Velar's have seen this issue. I assume the new cars in the showroom that were looked at back in 2018 were also 18MY? Also does this affect Matrix LED lights or just the LED or Premium LED headlights?

Checked mine (Matrix LED) and as far as I can tell they are crack free at the moment.

 

Checked mine today.

No cracks seen so far.

MY2019, base LED lamps.

 

Hi guys
Issue continues with 2021 range rover evoque p200.

Delamination of plastic lenses.

Had the issue a month ago & it was replaced under warranty. Now checked over this morning and it's happening to other sections. Yes, it's covered under warranty but really?? $85,000 AU vehicle. Cheap glue??

Hello from Canada!
just noticed crack on my 2019 P380 HST on driver side…
taking it to dealer this week. Is there official recall or defect document for this issue?
I know I have battle in front of me

 

Nope, that's an impact crack.
Not a delaminating, stress fracture.
Insurance by the looks of it

 

Can you feel the crack with your fingernail?
If you CAN, then LR will say it IS an impact damage.

 

No I can’t… that’s is why I’m saying is defect…

 

Good Evening,
Just wondered if anyone had any luck with warranty replacement on cracked headlights? I have found recently ours have now cracked on both sides on the same day? Similar to some in this post..

as you can see in the pics, they have both cracked and failed under the lip on each side, with no external damage or chips/impacts. Seems a coincidence??

JLR have refused under goodwill currently as it isn’t a known issue according to them, this post suggests otherwise, and also JLR extended warranty have also refused currently as it is deemed cosmetic, not mechanical or electrical failure.

complaint currently open with warranty outcome, and both headlights have now failed in operation completely, so in a replacement vehicle currently from roadside assistance.

any advice? As they are Matrix LED Lasers it is over £9k to replace them!

cheers.

 

I’d be claiming on my insurance…

 

The nearside headlight on my Velar seems to have developed this issue. Very odd issue as there's clearly no impact damage on the headlight.

Car was purchased in April time from the dealer, it does have JLR warranty and im also insured through JLR. Hopefully between the 2, I should be able to get it sorted.

Have folk had any joy through claiming warranty on this issue?
