GLASS PANEL MAY DETACH WITHOUT WARNING
A rework where bonded glass was removed and refitted may have used an incorrect combination of adhesive preparation chemicals and glass adhesive.
Owner will be instructed to take vehicle to a Land Rover dealer who will remove the affected glazing panels and re-assemble using the correct specification bonding agents.

On affected vehicles inspect the second row seat mechanism and if necessary fit the correct specification components.
FIRE MAY OCCUR
The controller circuit for the Positive Temperature Coefficient (PTC) Heater fitted to affected vehicles may short circuit. This normally results in flat battery but may also cause non starting Additionally the short circuit may cause a distinct smell from hot and/or melted components which in extreme circumstances may develop in to a fire. All of these symptoms can occur when the vehicle is in use or parked and unattended.
On affected vehicles replace PTC with latest design version.
VEHICLE DOOR(S) MAY OPEN WHEN CAR IS IN MOTION
The door could be unlatched when in the closed position and no indication provided of an unlatched condition. Vehicle doors not latched in either the primary of secondary state may during driving open. This can increase the risk of a vehicle crash and/or compromise the safety of vehicle occupants and other road users.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and download the latest level of software. A limited number of vehicles may also require a Remote Function Actuator module to be fitted.

PANORAMIC ROOF MAY DETACH
The panoramic roof adhesive and primer used in the assembly bonding of the panoramic roof glass panel may not have been to the correct specification. If the concern occurs there will initially be wind noise when driving or parked and on closing a door the panoramic roof might be seen to lift. If the concern is not rectified the panoramic roof could detach from the vehicle when it is in motion causing risk of collision/injury to other road users.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and apply the correct primer and adhesive to the panoramic roof assembly.
DYNAMIC STABILITY CONTROL MAY NOT FUNCTION CORRECTLY
As a result of the ABS system self check software not being installed correctly�Yaw Stability Control (YSC) Electronic Traction Control (ETC) and Gradient Release Control�systems may become disabled. The air suspension goes into �Safe Mode� lowering to its lowest setting. An Amber warning indicator illuminates warning the driver.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and download the latest level of software.
WHEEL NUTS MAY DETACH
On affected vehicles the road wheel nuts may not have been manufactured to the correct specification. These wheel nuts may crackwhen subject to shock loads and detach from the stud. This may lead to insecurity and possible detachment of a road wheel.
Recall affected vehicles and replace wheel nuts. Locking wheel nuts are not affected.

FIRE MAY OCCUR
The ground wiring for the air conditioning blower within the cockpit harness may not be to specification. This can lead to the wire getting hot and melting the plastic insulation and associated burning smell. If ignored and the loom gets significantly damaged there is a possibility of fire.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and replace the earth wire. Where other wiring/insulation is affected necessary repairs will be carried out using the correct repair procedures.

POSSIBLE LOSS OF BRAKING EFFICIENCY
On affected vehicles the servo vacuum hose may have been incorrectly routed and can chafe against the auxiliary drive pulley. This can lead to failure of the hose and a loss of brake servo assistance.
On affected vehicles check brake servo hose. If in good condition correctly reroute and secure hose. If hose is damaged replace hose and correctly route and secure.

BRAKING IMBALANCE MAY MAKE VEHICLE UNSTABLE
The fixing bolts for the front and rear hub assemblies are not to specification. The bolts could break and cause loud noise followed by severe vibration wheel lock possibly a bolt could puncture the brake disc or even if all the bolts are damaged the hub may become insecure to the axle. The aforementioned will cause instability and significantly increase the risk of collision.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and replace all the front and rear wheel hub fixings. If any damaged has been caused by bolts failing the affected components will be replaced.
POSSIBLE LOSS OF BRAKING EFFICIENCY
It is possible that one or both of the front brake hoses could rupture allowing brake fluid to leak. A warning lamp and message will appear on the dash board when the fluid depletes to a certain level. Braking capability will be retained by the rear brake circuit pedal feel will be degraded and pedal travel extended. Stopping distances will increase.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and replace both front brake hoses.
FRONT WHEEL MAY DETACH
It has been established that in extreme cases the front axle tube could fracture over a period of time. If not identified this could result in the detachment of the wheel and hub assembly.
Recall all affected vehicles and fit additional brackets to hold the hub/tube assembly in place should the tube fracture.
RISK OF FIRE
An internal fault can create a short circuit within the fan control module which may lead to overheating of the insulation and ultimately fire within the engine bay. This may happen with the engine switched off and possibly when the vehicle is unattended..
Replace electric cooling fan assembly on affected vehicles

VEHICLE MAY BECOME UNSTABLE
The right hand rear suspension link arm to knuckle fixings may not be to specification. When subjected to normal use loading one or both of the fixings may fracture. Where one or both of the suspension link arm fixings fracture vehicle stability may be compromised.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and replace both the right hand side rear suspension link arm to knuckle fixings and torque to the correct specification.

FRONT DIRECTION LAMP INDICATOR WARNING LIGHT MAY FAIL
In the event of a front direction indictor lamp failure the audible and visual warning (double click/double flash warning) will not function thereby not informing the driver of the failure. This can result in the vehicle not being rectified for a prolonged period which increases the chance of a collision with other road users.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and update the vehicle with the latest software.
