What this recall means for you
A spring in the keyless latching system on the left-hand door can stick, so the door may stay unlatched even after it appears closed.
If the door is not fully latched, it can open while the vehicle is moving, which raises the risk of injury or a crash. Owners should not wait to have this checked.
The repair is free at an authorized dealer, which will update the software and inspect the door latches, replacing them if needed. Check your VIN for open recalls, and you can call Land Rover customer service at 1-800-637-6837 with questions.
