Jaguar Land Rover Ireland Limited has announced a voluntary recall affecting various models of Land Rover vehicles, including the Defender, Discovery, Range Rover, Discovery Sport, Range Rover Evoque, and Range Rover Velar. The recall is due to safety concerns identified in certain model years ranging from 2019 to 2027. Specifically, there are issues with the driver’s airbag connector that may lead to airbag failure during deployment, as well as potential fire risks associated with the high-voltage battery in some vehicles.
The first recall addresses a concern with the driver’s airbag connector in Defender, Discovery, and Range Rover models, which may suffer from corrosion, potentially preventing the airbag from deploying in a crash. This affects 2,255 vehicles produced between April 4, 2019, and June 26, 2026. The second recall involves 46 vehicles produced between July 7, 2020, and May 1, 2025, where internal cell behavior in the high-voltage battery could pose a fire risk. Lastly, 519 Land Rover Evoque vehicles produced between February 15, 2019, and December 14, 2024, are being recalled due to a risk of the passenger airbag module tearing during deployment, which could lead to inadequate protection in a crash.
Customers who believe their vehicle may be affected are encouraged to contact Jaguar Land Rover Ireland Limited for further assistance. The company will reach out directly to affected customers to arrange appointments with local dealers or authorized repairers for necessary work to be carried out.
