ANALYSISHow safe is the 2022 Land Rover Defender 110?

For the 2022 model year, the Land Rover Defender 110 presents a unique federal safety profile: zero recall campaigns have been issued. This absence of recalls, combined with a total of 64 unverified owner complaints, places it in our "Light burden" category. The most prominent pattern among these complaints targets the Electrical System, accounting for 24 of the 64 reports. Following this, Visibility and Wiper issues comprise 13 complaints. Within this complaint pool, two alleged crash reports and one alleged injury report are present; however, all complaints are unverified allegations and have not been adjudicated by NHTSA. As no other model years for the Defender 110 exist in our dataset, no adjacent crash-test record can provide additional context.
