— Nearly 17,000 Range Rovers are being recalled because the knuckle joints on the front suspension can crack and cause the suspension arms to separate.
Recalled 2014-2016 Range Rovers may experience steering and stability issues if the suspension arms separate.
In 2019, a Range Rover suffered a front suspension steering knuckle failure while driving at low speeds. Due to similar reports in Canada, Land Rover was contacted by Transport Canada, and more accidents followed.
Engineers determined that the use of road salt would cause the steering knuckle to fail.
Land Rover has received 12 claims over the past nine years, but no collisions or injuries have been reported.
Land Rover dealers will inspect the front suspension knuckles and install mounting brackets, or possibly replace the knuckles.
Owner recall letters are expected to be mailed out on January 3, 2025, but Range Rover owners with questions can call 800-637-6837.
Land Rover’s recall number is N759.
