NOVEMBER 2010 --
Land Rover is recalling certain
model year 2010-2011 LR2 vehicles
manufactured from November 12, 2009, through
August 23, 2010. The shorting bar in the
clock spring may become disconnected when
the driver's air bag module connector is
installed. The driver's frontal airbag may
not deploy as intended or at all and
therefore will not be able to properly
protect the driver, increasing the risk of
injury. Dealers will install a spacer into
the driver's airbag clock spring harness
connector. This service will be performed
free of charge. The safety recall is
expected to begin on or before December 13,
2010. 10V-581
FEBRUARY 2008 -- Land
Rover is recalling 12,353 MY 2008 LR2
vehicles built with a sunroof. Failure of
either the left or right hand side sunroof
guide rail can occur when the sunroof is
operated. Excessive stress can develop in
the over-molded bracket which could lead to
cracking during normal sunroof operation. If
cracks occur and propagate in a certain area
of the guide rail, fragments of the plastic
over-mold material may detach from the guide
rail and obstruct the operation of the
sunroof. The obstruction could cause the
sunroof, when operated, to bind, twist, and
potentially detach from the operating
mechanism. If the sunroof is subsequently
cycled and a vertical force applied, i.e., a
customer manually aiding the roof to close
or wind lift, the glass panel can become
fully detached from the vehicle, increasing
the risk of injury. Dealers will install
retention inserts to both sides of the glass
panel guide rails. The recall is expected to
begin during March 2008. 08V055
