Transmission Parking Pawl Guide Plate Replacement





AFFECTED VEHICLES: (SPECIFIC VEHICLES WITHIN THESE VIN RANGES)

NOTE:
Vehicles within the affected VIN range may have been corrected under the provisions of a Port Quarantine associated with this Recall. These vehicles will be excluded from DDW display and owner notification in this Recall Action. Retailers must check on DDW to determine if the vehicle is affected by the Recall.

CONDITION SUMMARY:

PARKING PAWL GUIDE PLATE REPLACEMENT REQUIRED

Situation:
Land Rover has decided to recall specific LR3, Range Rover Sport and Range Rover vehicles in the affected VIN ranges to replace the parking pawl guide plate. It is possible that a plate that was not manufactured correctly has been used. The Automatic Transmission "Park" feature may not function correctly if an out-of-specification plate is installed.

Action:
Retailers are required to Quarantine affected vehicles in their control until the transmission has had the parking pawl guide plate replaced. Refer to the Repair Procedure section of this bulletin for instructions to replace the parking pawl guide plate.

US Federal law requires Retailers to complete any outstanding safety recall service before a vehicle is delivered to the buyer or lessee. Violation of this requirement by a Retailer could result in a civil penalty of up to $5.000 per vehicle.

PARTS:

NOTE:
All replaced parking pawl guide plates are designated as "Warranty Return Parts" and must be saved for return to Land Rover for inspection.
