What this recall means for you
A spring in the keyless latch system on the left front door can stick, so the door may stay unlatched even after it appears closed. This happens on some vehicles that were previously repaired under an earlier recall, because that repair may not have been completed correctly.
An unlatched door can open while the vehicle is moving, which raises the risk of injury or a crash. If you own one of these vehicles, check your VIN for open recalls and contact Land Rover customer service at 1-800-637-6837 (Land Rover recall number N459).
Land Rover will notify owners when the recall begins. Authorized dealers will update the software and inspect the KV latches, replacing them if needed, at no cost to you.
