What is being recalled

Jaguar Land Rover North America, LLC (Land Rover) is recalling certain 2016-2017 Range Rover and Range Rover Sport vehicles. The driver's seat belt Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR) may not lock as designed. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 209, "Seat Belt Assemblies."

Why it is dangerous

If the driver brakes prior to a crash, the ELR will not lock at the correct g-force level, increasing the risk of injury.

The fix (free at any franchised dealer)

Land Rover will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the seat belt assembly, replacing it if necessary, free of charge. The recall began September 10, 2019. Owners may contact Land Rover customer service at 1-800-637-6837. Land Rover's number for this recall is N333.

Recall repairs are always free, regardless of vehicle age or where you bought the car. Quote the campaign number 19V-350 when calling a dealer.
