The lock actuators in my vehicle (except for the driver door and tailgate) have all failed. It started when my 2016 Land Rover was at approximately 118,000 miles, with the rear driver side door failing first. Then in the last 30 days, the rear passenger side door and the front passenger side door fail to lock or get stuck locked. This causes several safety hazards to include the inability to egress from the vehicle in the case of an emergency. Additionally, I am obviously concerned about vehicle theft. There have been no warning lamps, messages, or other indicators of the issue prior to the failure, the locks just progressively stopped working. I haven't yet had the component inspected by anyone, but I am upset that my safety has been put in danger by these faulty systems and that I will now have to pay thousands of dollars out of pocket to get it fixed. It must be a frequent problem with these systems because some how three out of the five locks on my vehicle all went out over the course of two months on a relatively low mileage vehicle.

I own a range rover 1976 discover sport, and the infotainment system seems to reset while driving down the road. I paid over $55,000 for a luxury SUV, and I didn't expect it to reboot at 70 miles per hour.
