Affected vehicles already with customers should be updated at the next available opportunity. JLR North America recommends that affected sales demonstrator and loaner vehicles are repaired before use and that used vehicles are repaired before sale. Retailers/authorized repairers who choose to proceed against this recommendation, where legally permitted, must clearly and conspicuously disclose the open recall to the applicable customers.
The Safety Recall repair procedures and any required parts and/or software are not currently available. A Safety Recall repair campaign will be published when all repair procedures and all required parts and/or software are available.
Retailers/authorized repairers are reminded that they must not sell vehicles identified as affected by this campaign until such time as the repair has been successfully completed.
Chronology :
During new vehicle development testing in September 2022, it was discovered that the level of sound emitted by a test vehicle did not meet the expected level. A stop-shipment was initiated to ensure that the New Range Rover (L460) and New Range Rover Sport (L461) models were capable of emitting the required sound level.
Following this, an investigation was opened at the Product Safety & Compliance Committee (PSCC).The PSCC requested the Engineering team to fully define the scope of this issue
During October and November, the Engineering team investigated all Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV) and PHEV vehicle lines and reported back to the PSCC that previous generation Range Rover (L405) and Range Rover Sport (L494) PHEV vehicles and the BEV Jaguar I-Pace vehicles were potentially affected.
The PSCC requested that the Engineering team confirmed the sound files installed on those vehicle lines potentially affected and the impact on the vehicle’s performance against regulated requirements.
At the PSCC of January 17, 2023, the scope of the issue was discussed and finalized. Based on the feedback provided, the PSCC progressed the issue to the Recall Determination Committee (RDC) for review.
The RDC reviewed the issue on January 19, 2023 and concluded that a voluntary safety recall should be conducted to update the vehicle’s sound file to ensure the correct sound is emitted.
Following an internal review, the issue was returned to the RDC on February 02, 2023 to confirm the characterization of the defect, the RDC concluded that the failure to comply with FMVSS 141 represented a non-compliance and a voluntary recall should be conducted to update the vehicle’s sound file to ensure the correct sound is emitted.
There have been no reported accidents, injuries or fires as a result of this concern.
There have been no warranty claims, field or service reports as a result of this concern.

Violation of this requirement by are tailer/authorized repairer could result in a maximum civil penalty of up to the equivalent of $26,315.00 USD per violation and the equivalent of $131,564,183.00 USD for a related series of violations. DESCRIPTION OF ISSUE AND THE EFFECT ON VEHICLE OPERATION A concern has been identified on 2020 – 2022 Model Year Land Rover Range Rover and Range Rover Sport Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV) vehicles where the level of sound emitted for a static vehicle when reverse gear is selected does not meet the minimum sound requirements required by FMVSS No. 141, Minimum Sound Requirements for Hybrid and Electric Vehicles. A vehicle that fails to make sufficient sound may result in pedestrians being unaware of an approaching vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash. OWNER NOTIFICATION Initial owner notification is expected to occur on or before 24th March 2023. ACTION TO BE TAKEN Check the JLR Warranty Portal to make sure affected vehicles are correctly identified prior to starting this campaign. The Warranty Portal will be updated to reflect only those vehicles affected. Retailers/authorized repairers are required to Quarantine affected new vehicles that are within your control and refrain from releasing the vehicles for new vehicle sale pending completion of the rework action. Affected vehicles already with customers should be updated at the next available opportunity. JLR North America recommends that affected sales demonstrator and loaner vehicles are repaired before use and that used vehicles are repaired before sale. Retailers/authorized repairers who choose to proceed against this recommendation, where legally permitted, must clearly and conspicuously disclose the open recall to the applicable customers. The Safety Recall repair procedures and any required parts and/or software are not currently available. A Safety Recall repair campaign will be published when all repair procedures and all required parts and/or software are available. Retailers/authorized repairers are reminded that they must not sell vehicles identified as affected by this campaign until such time as the repair has been successfully completed.
