@rutiger do you have any more info on your recall? I've had my p400 turn itself completely off at a stop light a few times now and the dealer can't figure out what's wrong.

I had this happen on my old G550, 4 times in the shop, sold it cause I didn't want to deal with lemon law. Nightmare.

Default 2022 Trophy Edition stalled at red light.

My wife 2022 Trophy Edition engine completely shut down at a red light this morning. She said it took her about 3 times to get the engine running. Only 3 weeks old and it’s acting up already.

@Help Me! that's the issue I've had as well. Seems slightly different than the above 21V-424 recall since the defender only shuts down at a red light, never when driving (in motion). You should take it in to the dealer so there's a record of it happening... the more data points the better so LR knows this is something to address. Interestingly enough when I took mine in there wasn't any error codes so the dealer couldn't do anything.

i only had it happen a few times and always under the same conditions. sitting at stop light. light goes green, i hit gas pedal, it dies. even though that doesn't match the scenario in the recall i had them perform it. it's not happen since/many months. so, not really sure if the recall fixed it or just coincidence it's not happened again.

well, wouldn't you know it. after mentioning above it hadn't happened in months my x stalled today. same condition. at stoplight. i think engine off because auto start/stop. light turns green, i hit accelerator, truck starts to move then dies. people behind me have to stab the brakes and honk because you know, i wanted this to all happen. guess i'll have to go back to always disabling auto start/stop every time i drive it to avoid stalling.
