AFTERSALES BULLETIN
JANUARY 31, 2019
Jaguar
Land Rover
North America, LLC has informed the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) of its intent to perform a voluntary Safety Recall on certain 2019 model year Land Rover
Discovery, Range Rover Velar, Range Rover Sport, and Range Rover vehicles imported into the United States market. Information relating to this Recall will be posted on the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration website.
United States Federal regulations require that retailers must be notified within a reasonable time after the manufacturer decides that a defect that relates to motor vehicle safety or a noncompliance exists.
United States Federal law requires retailers to complete any outstanding safety Recall service before a new vehicle is delivered to the buyer or lessee. Violation of this requirement by a retailer could result in a civil penalty of up to $21,780.00 per vehicle.
This Recall Service Bulletin serves as notification to all Land Rover
retailers in the United States and Federalized Territories that any affected new vehicles may not be sold and delivered for customer use until the Recall repair is completed.
THIS SAFETY RECALL SUPERSEDES UPS13118 WITH IMMEDIATE EFFECT
DESCRIPTION OF ISSUE
An issue has been identified on certain Land Rover
vehicles within the listed Affected Vehicle Range where the center main crankshaft damper/pulley bolt may fracture. A batch of bolts has been manufactured away from specification and therefore has the potential to develop cracks on the surface of the bolt, leading to hydrogen embrittlement. These cracks cause the bolt to fracture over time, leading to a loss of retention of the crankshaft pulley. Where bolt fracture occurs, the pulley will oscillate for a period, but ultimately the crankshaft nose will break, leading to engine failure.

A total of 2,587 vehicles are potentially affected in the USA and Federalized Territories. Visit the British Brands Sales Suite (BBSS) website for a list of affected vehicles at your retailer.
EFFECT ON VEHICLE OPERATION
Fracture of the crankshaft pulley bolt and associated breakage of the crankshaft nose will lead to the vehicle displaying a number of warning lights, quickly followed by loud noises, engine power loss, and the potential for engine failure. Further, the loose pulley could damage engine compartment components or puncture the hood and become a hazard to pedestrians or other road users.
Vehicles with a bolt from the affected batch may cut out while in motion with no ability to be restarted.
Engine cut-out with minimal warning poses an unreasonable risk to safety and may result in a crash.
SERVICE PROGRAM / REWORK ACTION
Owners will be notified and instructed to take their vehicle to an authorized Land Rover
retailer who will replace the center main crankshaft damper/pulley bolt. There will be no charge to owners for this action under this program.
OWNER NOTIFICATION
Owners will receive a notification by mail on or before March 11, 2019.

National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) Recall Number: 19V-040
Dear Land Rover
Owner:
This notice is sent to you in accordance with the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act. Land Rover
has decided that a defect which relates to motor vehicle safety exists in certain 2019 model year Land Rover
Discovery, Range Rover Velar, Range Rover Sport, and Range Rover vehicles.
Your vehicle is included in this Recall action.
What is the reason for this program?
The center main crankshaft damper/pulley bolt may fracture. A batch of bolts has been manufactured away from specification and therefore has the potential to develop cracks on the surface of the bolt. These cracks cause the bolt to fracture over time, leading to a loss of retention of the crankshaft pulley. Where bolt fracture occurs, it will ultimately cause the crankshaft nose to break, leading to engine failure. (Thereby deleting pulley will oscillate for a period).
Fracture of the crankshaft pulley bolt and associated breakage of the crankshaft nose will lead to the vehicle displaying a number of warning lights, quickly followed by loud noises, engine power loss and the potential for engine failure. Further, the loose pulley could damage engine compartment components or puncture the hood and become a hazard to pedestrians or other road users.
Vehicles with a bolt from the affected batch may stall while in motion with no ability to be restarted.
Engine stall with minimal warning poses an unreasonable risk to safety and may result in a crash.
What will Land Rover
and your authorized Land Rover
Retailer do?
Land Rover
is carrying out a recall of the vehicles mentioned above. An authorized Land Rover
retailer will replace the center main crankshaft damper/pulley bolt with one of the correct specification.

retailer, provide them with your Vehicle
Identification Number (VIN), and request a service date to complete the work required under Program Code ‘N276’ completed on your vehicle.
Attention Leasing Agencies: If you are a vehicle lessor, Federal Regulations require you to forward this notice to your lessee within TEN (10) days.
How long will it take?
The work will be carried out as quickly and efficiently as possible in order to minimize inconvenience to customers and is expected to take up to 2.5 hours, although your retailer may need your vehicle for a longer time.

M A R K E T S :
This Safety Recall supersedes Update Prior to Sale UPS13118 with immediate effect.
SITUATION:
An issue has been identified on certain Land Rover
vehicles within the listed Affected Vehicle Range
where the center main crankshaft damper/pulley bolt(s) may fracture. A batch of bolts has been
manufactured away from specification and therefore has the potential to develop cracks on the surface
of the bolt(s), leading to hydrogen embrittlement. These cracks cause the bolt(s) to fracture over time,
leading to a loss of retention of the crankshaft pulley. Where bolt(s) fracture occurs, the pulley will
oscillate for a period, but ultimately the crankshaft nose will break, leading to engine failure.
Fracture of the center main crankshaft pulley bolt(s) and associated breakage of the crankshaft nose
will lead to the vehicle displaying a number of warning lights, quickly followed by loud noises, engine
power loss, and the potential for engine failure. Further, the loose pulley could damage engine
compartment components or puncture the hood and become a hazard to pedestrians or other road
users.

Refer to TOPIx Workshop Manual/Workshop Procedure for any required special tools.
Vehicles with a bolt(s) from the affected batch may cut out while in motion with no ability to be
restarted.
Engine cut-out with minimal warning poses an unreasonable risk to safety and may result in a crash.
ACTION:
Retailers are required to HOLD affected new vehicles that are within your control and refrain from
releasing the vehicles for new vehicle sale pending completion of the Diagnostic/Workshop Procedure
detailed in this Technical Bulletin. Unsold vehicles should have this performed as part of the Pre-
Delivery Inspection (PDI) process but must have it completed prior to vehicle handover to the
customer.
Affected vehicles already in the hands of customers should be updated at the next available
opportunity.
P A R T S :
NOTE:
Only order the expected percentage demand of parts identified.
