2021 Land Rover Discovery recalled

The 2021 Land Rover Discovery has been placed under recall, with all units sold this year needing to go back for repairs.

Affecting 54 late-2020 and all 2021-build vehicles, the issue stems from an incorrectly installed occupancy detection sensor system in the front passenger’s seat.

If the system isn’t fitted correctly, it will fail to provide a warning if the seat is occupied and the occupant doesn’t have their seatbelt buckled, leading to a higher risk of injury in the event of an accident.
