ANALYSISHow safe is the 2025 Land Rover Discovery?
The 2025 Land Rover Discovery has no owner complaints on file with NHTSA. This notable zero-complaint figure for a vehicle on the market for approximately one year may reflect low sales volume or limited owner reporting. The model is also subject to a single recall campaign, classified by federal administrators as a Light burden. This recall addresses an airbag issue, shared across multiple Land Rover nameplates and model years, indicating a broader design or supplier concern rather than a defect unique to the 2025 Discovery. No federal crash-test data or adjacent model year testing is available for the 2025 Discovery; therefore, no federal crashworthiness assessment is possible.
