What is being recalled
Jaguar Land Rover North America, LLC (Land Rover) is recalling certain 2023 Land Rover Defender 130 vehicles equipped with third-row seats. The third-row seatback latch may not latch properly, reducing the strength of a child seat installed to the top tether.
Why it is dangerous
A child seat with reduced strength may not properly restrain the occupant during a crash, increasing the risk of injury.
The fix (free at any franchised dealer)
Dealers will inspect and replace the third-row seat frame and components, as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed April 24, 2023. Owners may contact Land Rover customer service at 1-800-637-6837. Land Rover's number for this recall is N768.
Recall repairs are always free, regardless of vehicle age or where you bought the car. Quote the campaign number 23V-137 when calling a dealer.
