Recalls, owner-reported complaints, investigations and safety data

Data refreshed

Owner complaintsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

Safety recallsA safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.

InvestigationsNHTSA opens an investigation to examine whether a safety defect may exist. An open investigation is not a determination that a defect exists, and many investigations close without a recall. Investigations can, however, lead to one.

The defect: Jaguar Land Rover North America, LLC (Land Rover) is recalling certain 2011-2012 Land Rover Range Rover vehicles, originally sold, or ever registered, in Arizona, Arkansas, Delaware, District of Columbia, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Maryland, Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Virginia, and West Virginia, or "Zone B." Unless included in "Zone B" above, Land Rover is recalling certain 2010-2012 Land Rover Range Rover vehicles, originally sold, or ever registered, in Alaska, Colorado, Connecticut, Idaho, Iowa, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Montana, New Hampshire, New York, North Dakota, Oregon, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Utah, Vermont, Washington, Wisconsin, and Wyoming or "Zone C." These vehicles are equipped with certain air bag inflators assembled as part of the passenger frontal air bag modules used as original equipment or replacement equipment. In the event of a crash necessitating deployment of the passenger frontal air bag, these inflators may explode due to propellant degradation occurring after long-term exposure to absolute humidity and temperature cycling.
The risk: An inflator explosion may result in sharp metal fragments striking the driver or other occupants resulting in serious injury or death.
The remedy: Land Rover will notify owners, and dealers will replace the front passenger air bag assembly, free of charge. The recall began June 27, 2018. Owners may contact Land Rover customer service at 1-800-637-6837. Land Rover's number for this recall is P084.

DANGEROUS LAND ROVER TIMING CHAIN PROBLEM. A KNOWN AND DANGEROUS PROBLEM WITH LAND ROVER VEHICLES HAS BEEN BROUGHT TO MY ATTENTION AS A RESULT OF FAILED REPAIR ATTEMPTS AND RESEARCH. THERE IS A WELL-KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THE TIMING CHAINS ON 2010 LAND ROVER VEHICLES. OTHER VEHICLES ARE AFFECTED. MANY COMPLAINTS ARE IN EVIDENCE ON WEBSITES, CLASS ACTION LAWSUITS ARE BEING ORGANIZED, AND MANY EXPERT ARTICLES WRITTEN. HTTP://ROBISONSERVICE.BLOGSPOT.COM/2019/08/TIMING-CHAIN-PROBLEMS-2010-NEWER-JAGUAR.HTML DESPITE THIS, JAGUAR LAND ROVER NORTH AMERICA HAS IGNORED A POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS CONDITION AND WORSE ACTUALLY PROFITS FROM IT. DEALERS REPAIRING THESE VEHICLE ARE NOT ADDRESSING THE UNDERLYING ISSUE. CONSUMERS ARE PAYING FOR NEEDLESS AND INEFFECTIVE REPAIRS, AND A POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS CONDITION PERSISTS WHICH COULD LEAD TO CATASTROPHIC HARM. THIS IS A WELL-KNOWN AND POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS ENGINE DESIGN FAULT. IT HAS BEEN ALLEGED THAT LAND ROVER KNEW OF THIS CONDITION AT THE TIME THE VEHICLES WERE SOLD. IF A TIMING CHAIN SKIPS THE CONSEQUENCES COULD BE A DISASTER ACCORDING TO EXPERTS I HAVE CONSULTED.

Higher-selling and older vehicles accumulate more reports. Counts are not failure rates and are not directly comparable between vehicles that sold in very different numbers. Older model years have had longer for reports to accumulate.
