What are the defects?
Due to a manufacturing defect, water may enter the rear passenger door latches and cause corrosion in the return spring. As a result, the doors may not latch whilst in closed position and the hazard warning light may not display on the instrument cluster as intended.
What are the hazards?
If the rear passenger’s door does not latch as intended, it could open whilst the vehicle is in motion. This could increase the risk of serious injury or death to vehicle occupants or other road users.
What should consumers do?
Owners of affected vehicles will be contacted by Jaguar Land Rover Australia requesting to take their vehicle to an approved dealership to inspect and rectify the vehicle, free of charge.
