Recalls on the 1997 Land Rover Range Rover

A complaint is one owner's allegation. A recall is the point at which the manufacturer or a regulator agreed the defect is real and dangerous enough to fix for free — however old the car is.

Canada runs its own recall programme, and its campaigns do not always mirror the American ones.

Engine

CERTAIN UNDER-HOOD HOSE AND TUBING COMPONENTS (PRIMARILY COOLANT HOSES) CAN FAIL. UNINTENDED RELEASE OF FLUIDS SUCH AS ENGINE COOLANT, WINDSHIELD WASHER FLUID, AND AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FLUID CAN LEAD TO CONDITIONS WHICH CAN CAUSE A VEHICLE FIRE. CORRECTION: A SERIES OF MODIFICATIONS WILL BE MADE TO SEVERAL UNDER-HOOD COMPONENTS TO ELIMINATE THE RELEASE OF SUCH FLUIDS AND IMPROVE THE VEHICLE'S RESISTANCE TO UNDER-HOOD FIRE.

ON THE MORNING OF OCTOBER 18, I BEGAN PLACING MY BABY'S INFANT CARRIER SEAT INTO THE BASE ALREADY INSTALLED IN THE VEHICLE'S REAR PASSENGER OUTBOARD SEAT. I NOTICED THAT IT SEEMED LOOSE AND REMOVED THE BASE FOR CLOSER INSPECTION. THE BASE HAD PREVIOUSLY BEEN INSTALLED CORRECTLY WITH THE RETRACTOR SWITCHED TO ALR MODE (I AM A CPS TECHNICIAN). I FOUND THAT THE RETRACTOR WAS NO LONGER RATCHETING AND SIMPLY MADE A CLUNKING SOUND WHEN PULLED. I CANNOT VERIFY IF IT IS WORKING IN ELR MODE, AS IT STICKS MAKES STRANGE SOUNDS. I MOVED THE CAR SEAT TO THE OTHER REAR OUTBOARD POSITION IMMEDIATELY.
