Recall 23V137000 · manufacturer campaign N768

Child Seat › Vehicle Tether Anchor — Land Rover · reported 2 Mar 2023 · 812 vehicles potentially affected

What's wrong

Jaguar Land Rover North America, LLC (Land Rover) is recalling certain 2023 Land Rover Defender 130 vehicles equipped with third-row seats. The third-row seatback latch may not latch properly, reducing the strength of a child seat installed to the top tether.

The risk

A child seat with reduced strength may not properly restrain the occupant during a crash, increasing the risk of injury.

The fix

Dealers will inspect and replace the third-row seat frame and components, as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed April 24, 2023. Owners may contact Land Rover customer service at 1-800-637-6837. Land Rover's number for this recall is N768.

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
