Defect

Jaguar Land Rover North America, LLC (Land Rover) is recalling certain 2020 Range Rover Evoque vehicles. The cushion cover on the left-side lower knee air bag may come loose, which could result in the cushion unfolding from the air bag module housing.

Safety risk

In the event of a crash, an unfolded knee air bag may not offer the driver full protection, increasing the risk for injury.

Remedy

Land Rover will notify owners, and dealers will replace the left-side lower knee air bag module, free of charge. The recall began May 3, 2021. Owners may contact Land Rover customer service at 1-800-637-6837. Land Rover's number for this recall is N566.
