What is being recalled

Jaguar Land Rover North America, LLC (Land Rover) is recalling certain 2020 Range Rover Evoque vehicles. The cushion cover on the left-side lower knee air bag may come loose, which could result in the cushion unfolding from the air bag module housing.

Why it is dangerous

In the event of a crash, an unfolded knee air bag may not offer the driver full protection, increasing the risk for injury.

The fix (free at any franchised dealer)

Land Rover will notify owners, and dealers will replace the left-side lower knee air bag module, free of charge. The recall began May 3, 2021. Owners may contact Land Rover customer service at 1-800-637-6837. Land Rover's number for this recall is N566.

Recall repairs are always free, regardless of vehicle age or where you bought the car. Quote the campaign number 21V-168 when calling a dealer.
