P053 campaigned vehicles - Brake Disc to Hub Bolts where the front brake pipe from caliper to the brake flexible hose is subsequently showing signs of a chafe condition in some instances it has been reported that a noise is present or the loss of brake fluid has occurred. If the brake pipe continues to chafe through sudden loss of brake fluid could be experienced. Brake fluid loss will illuminate a red warning triangle. Brake fluid loss will ultimately result in extended brake pedal travel combined with reduced braking performance in the corresponding brake circuit increasing stopping distances. Loss of one braking circuit could compromise vehicle stability and significantly increase the risk of an accident.
Fix: Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected. Where recall campaign P053 is yet to be completed provide the P053 remedy and ensure that the specified clearances are achieved following completion of the P053 recall remedy. In the case of vehicles that have already had recall campaign P053 completed the dealer will ensure the correct clearances are achieved. If there are any signs of damage to the left hand right hand or both sides of the front brake pipe the damaged pipe will be replaced.

RANGE ROVER EVOQUE · locking ring may be incorrectly assembled
23 May 2017 · R/2017/153
The locking ring retaining the fuel delivery module into the fuel tank may not have been correctly assembled onto the fuel tank during the tank assembly process. The driver may smell an increase in fuel odour and in some circumstances with the vehicle static there could be liquid fuel underneath the rear of the vehicle which in the presence of an ignition source could lead to a fire. It is also possible for fuel to leak onto the road surface which in the case of diesel fuel can present a skid hazard to other road users increasing the risk of a crash.
Fix: Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and inspect the fuel pump module retaining ring ensuring it is tightened to the correct specification if required.

31 Jan 2017 · R/2016/289
It has been identified that the engine wiring harness of the 2.0ltr engined vehicles fitted with automatic transmission may have been incorrectly routed which may allow the wiring harness to contact the water charge air cooler bracket. Engine vibration can cause a chaffing condition where the outer sheathing of the cable can wear through and expose the wires of the engine harness. Depending on the orientation of the wires within the harness then damage to wires can result in electrical arcing and a short circuit. This condition can also result in the illumination of a warning light on the instrument panel loss of the electronic steering system engine cut out without warning melting of the cable sheathing and surrounding parts. Also in extreme circumstances it can cause an under-bonnet fire.
Fix: All affected vehicles will be recalled to inspect the clearance between the engine harness and water charge air cooler bracket. If the clearance is not to the correct specification the wiring harness will be repositioned and secured to ensure the specified clearance is achieved. If the engine harness shows signs of chafing the engine harness will be repaired re-positioned to ensure the correct specification.

RANGE ROVER SPORT · fire may occur
23 Oct 2013 · R/2013/124
For vehicles fitted with Dynamic Response System (DRS) it is possible that the positive battery cable could come in contact with the DRS fluid supply pipes. If this condition occurs the positive battery lead could chaff on the DRS pipe which will then lead to DRS pipes becoming positively charged. Should the charge find an earth then localised melting of components could occur due to heat generation. This could ultimately result in a vehicle fire.
Fix: Recall all affected vehicles to check and if necessary replace the positive battery cable then reroute the cable.

It is possible that a leak can occur between the injector spill rail connection and the plastic fuel return pipe. This can cause leakage of fuel which can either pool on the engine cylinder head and then become deposited onto the road surface where it could cause a skid risk to other motorist or if the fuel comes into contact with extremely hot engine components an exhaust manifold for instance it is possible that an under bonnet fire could ensue.
Fix: Recall all affected vehicles inspect the fuel spill rail/return pipe and if required replace the spill rail with a new modified rail.

RANGE ROVER · brakes may fail
18 Dec 2012 · R/2012/153
Mounting bolts for the rear brake caliper may not be torqued to the correct specification. This will create noise from the rear of the vehicle whilst it is being driven and during braking and should warn the driver of the issue. However if the vehicle continues to be driven it is possible the bolts can work loose thus allowing the brake caliper to detach. This will result in the caliper contacting the road wheel which can cause brake failure or sudden deflation of the tyre with subsequent loss of control of the vehicle.
Fix: Recall affected vehicles to check the mounting bolts and re-torque them.

The steering rack mounting bolts may not be fully tight. If the steering gear fixings are below the required torque the driver will experience abnormal noise and feedback through the steering wheel during low speed manoeuvring and at higher speeds some easily corrected minor over steer. If the driver ignores the warning signs both fixings could become sufficiently loose to detach from the vehicle making directional control of the vehicle difficult.
Fix: Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to inspect the steering gear and check the steering gear mounting fixings are tightened to the correct torque.

DEFENDER · insecurity of front seat backrest.
22 Oct 2001 · R/2001/017
The front seats may not latch positively following operation of the seat tip lever. In consequence the seat squab (backrest) could attempt to fold forward if the vehicle should be brought to a very rapid stop.
Fix: Affected vehicles will be recalled for examination of the operation and integrity of the front seat tip lever and latching mechanism. In cases where the mechanism is found to bind a new seat frame assembly will be fitted.

RANGE ROVER · cooling system leaks
5 Dec 2000 · R/2000/074
There is a possibility of premature failure of the cooling system hoses and throttle body heater gasket. Expelled coolant allowed to remain on hot engine components can result in the evaporation of the water content and leave an artificially high concentration level of anti - freeze which is in extreme circumstances both corrosive and inflammable.
Fix: Recall affected vehicles to replace cooling system hoses / throttle body heater gasket with quality assured parts.

DISCOVERY · ace system high pressure pipes may leak fluid
6 Mar 2000 · R/2000/011
The ACE system high pressure pipes may under certain conditions fracture and leak fluid. In extreme circumstances should the vehicle continue to be driven and sufficient fluid expelled into the engine bay and an ignition source is present the fluid could ignite.
Fix: Recall affected vehicles and replace ACE high pressure pipes.

DISCOVERY · anti-lock braking system relay contacts sticking
24 Sep 1999 · R/1999/068
Land Rover have identified a concern associated with the Anti-Lock Braking (ABS) system. This may give the feeling of the vehicle Self-braking under normal driving conditions following normal brake pedal application caused by the contacts within the ABS relay sticking. Should this occur a very slight retardation may be felt within the vehicle until the contacts within the ABS relay are released.
Fix: Recall affected vehicles and replace the ABS relay with a quality assured unit.

FREELANDER · possible failure of rear suspension locating links
6 Nov 1998 · R/1998/080
Land Rover have identified a weld integrity concern associated with the rear suspension links on Freelander models. Should the weld fracture the stability of the rear hub assembly could be impaired. This may cause the vehicle to deviate from a straight line under normal driving conditions. To protect the long term integrity of these components Land Rover are implementing recall action on all Freelander models within the affected VIN range.
Fix: Recall affected vehicles and replace the rear suspension links with quality assured units.
