2007 Land Rover Range Rover Sport

Factory specifications, fluid capacities, torque values, EPA fuel economy and the federal safety record for the 2007 Range Rover Sport.

Body SUV

The 2007 Land Rover Range Rover Sport is an SUV that requires 8.0 quarts of 5W-30 engine oil, a notable fluid capacity that reflects the substantial lubrication demands of its powertrain. Reliability data for this specific year reveals 22 total owner complaints alongside 4 recalls, with air bags serving as the primary complaint area. When evaluated against the model's broader 2005-2024 complaint history, the 2007 iteration sits well below the 2011 peak of 82 complaints yet remains above the 10-complaint low of 2021, indicating to researchers that it occupies a moderate middle ground in the vehicle's overall reliability trajectory.

Reliability & federal safety record

Owner-reported issues, recalls, investigations and service bulletins on record with NHTSA — an unfiltered look at what owners actually experience.

The 2007 Land Rover Range Rover Sport sits early in the first generation (2006–2013), with 22 complaints and 4 recalls—both lower than the generation’s peak of 82 complaints (2011) and 7 recalls (2010, 2013). The complaint/recall trend across this generation is generally upward, with a sharp rise in technical service bulletins (TSBs) from 88 in 2006 to 1,315 by 2013, indicating growing complexity and service needs as the model aged. The 2007’s top complaint area is air bags (8 reports), with one crash complaint and no fires, but the data does not specify root causes for these issues. Compared to the preceding 2006 (26 complaints, 6 recalls) and the following 2008 (44 complaints, 4 recalls), the 2007 shows a slight dip in complaints and recalls, placing it in a relatively stable early phase of the generation. However, the TSB count (167) is already double that of 2005, hinting at emerging problems. **Overall, the 2007 is a middling choice within this generation—better than the high-complaint years after 2009, but still riskier than the very first model year; proceed only with a thorough pre-purchase inspection and a budget for potential airbag-related repairs.**
