The recall includes Land Rover Defender and Discovery models as well as Range Rover variants and the Jaguar F-PACE
The National Consumer Commission (NCC) has announced a product recall of various Jaguar Land Rover products that were produced between the 2024 and 2027 model years.
According to the NCC, the recall involves Jaguar F-Pace as well as Land Rover Discovery and Defender models, and Range Rover, Range Rover Sport and Range Rover Velar vehicles.
The affected models are fitted with the AJ-20-D6 engine, which is the firm’s 3.0-litre V6 turbodiesel unit, offered in various states of tune with D250, D300 and D350 designations.
According to Jaguar Land Rover, in affected engines the front-end auxiliary drive’s belt idler pulley might over-rotate following a high-torsion input. This could cause the pulley to clash with and damage the engine oil pressure and temperature sensor. This could, in turn, lead to an engine oil leak, potentially creating hazards for other road users, particularly those on motorcycles.
