Jaguar Land Rover Australia has recalled 60 examples of the 2023-24 Discovery Sport, having discovered a defect which could reduce its strength in a crash.
“Due to a manufacturing defect, the right-hand side lower A-pillar frame mounting bolt may have not been tightened according to specifications,” Land Rover says in its recall notice.
“As a result, this may lead to a reduction of structural integrity in the event of a collision.
“In the event of a front-end collision, an impaired vehicle structure may increase the risk of serious injury or death to vehicle occupants.”
