Transport Canada recall 2026345 · manufacturer campaign D145

16 July 2026

Transport Canada lists: Discovery 2021–2025

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, water could leak into the rearview camera and cause the rearview camera image not to display properly or at all.

Why it matters

A rearview camera image that doesn't display properly could reduce a driver's ability to see behind the vehicle while backing up. This could increase the risk of a crash.

What the dealer will do

Land Rover will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to inspect and, if necessary, replace the rearview camera. The dealer will also add drainage holes to the tailgate trim.

Transport Canada lists: Defender 2020–2026 · Discovery 2021–2026 · Range 2022–2026

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the connector for the driver-front airbag in the steering wheel could corrode. As a result, the driver-front airbag may not inflate in a crash. Note: This problem would cause the airbag warning light to turn on.

Why it matters

An airbag that doesn't work properly could increase the risk of injury in a crash.

What the dealer will do

Land Rover will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to apply grease to the driver's airbag connector terminals.

17 April 2026

Transport Canada lists: Defender 2020–2024 · Discovery 2020–2024 · Range 2019–2024 · Evoque 2020–2023

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the DC/DC converter could fail. As a result, the 12 V battery would not charge and a red "Stop Safely Electrical Fault Detected" warning message would be displayed. If this happens, and you continue to drive the vehicle, there could be a loss of power to the wheels and/or the vehicle's lights could turn off. Note: This recall only affects certain mild hybrid electric vehicles (MHEV).

Why it matters

A loss of power to the wheels could increase the risk of a crash. Exterior lights that don't work may make the vehicle less visible to others and increase the risk of a crash.

What the dealer will do

Land Rover will notify owners by mail. The corrective actions for this recall are under development.

Engine

Transport Canada recall 2024599 · manufacturer campaign N939

10 October 2024

Transport Canada lists: Defender 2020–2025 · Discovery 2021–2025 · Range 2019–2025

What is wrong

This recall is for certain replacement engines. The oil filter housing may not have been manufactured properly. Over time, the housing could crack and cause oil to leak onto hot components in the engine compartment.

Why it matters

Oil that leaks onto hot components can create the risk of a fire. Additionally, an oil leak could create a hazard for others and increase the risk of a crash.

What the dealer will do

None of the affected engines have been installed in vehicles. Land Rover will instruct dealers to replace the oil filter housing assembly before each engine is installed.

26 August 2021

Transport Canada lists: Defender 2020–2022 · Discovery 2020–2021 · Range 2020–2022

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the passenger seat belt assemblies may contain defective automatic locking retractors (ALR). As a result, the seat belts may not properly lock to secure a child seat. Note: The vehicle's lower universal anchorage system (UAS) is not affected by this defect and may still be used to secure a child seat.

Why it matters

A seat belt that is used to secure a child restraint but is not properly locked could increase the risk of injury in a crash.

What the dealer will do

Land Rover will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to inspect the seat belts. They will be replaced, if necessary.

17 June 2021

Transport Canada lists: Discovery 2020–2021

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the ground connection for the battery may not be properly attached to the chassis. This could cause various electrical problems.

Why it matters
