Land Rover recalls various Range Rovers with seat belt issue

Land Rover is recalling 28,000 model year 2021 Range Rovers, model year 2022 Range Rover Sports, model year 2020-2021 Range Rover Velars & Discovery Sports, and model year 2020-2022 Discoverys & Defenders.

The seat belt automatic locking detractors may deactivate early, which can prevent the child restraint system from securing properly.

An unsecured child restraint system can increase the risk of injury in a crash.

What to do

Dealers will inspect and replace the seat belt assemblies -- as necessary -- free of charge.

Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed October 22, 2021.

Owners may contact Land Rover customer service at (800) 637-6837. Land Rover's number for this recall is N630.
