Vehicles Affected: Approximately 65,400 model-year 2013-16 Land Rover Range Rover and model-year 2014-16 Range Rover Sport SUVs
The Problem: Due to a problem with the keyless vehicle latching system, the doors may appear to be closed but may be unlatched, which could lead to the door opening while the vehicle is in motion, increasing the risk of a crash.
The Fix: Dealers will inspect the KV Latch system for any issues, disabling mechanisms if necessary and updating the software for free.
What Owners Should Do: Land Rover will begin notifying owners July 19. Owners can call the automaker at 800-637-6837, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s vehicle-safety hotline at 888-327-4236 or visit its website to check their vehicle identification number and learn more.
