NHTSA recall 05V502000
Power Train · Land Rover
Details
What's wrong: Certain sport utility vehicles may have been manufactured with an incorrectly manufactured automatic transmission parking pawl guide plate.
Why it matters: Consequently park may not engage when the lever in the vehicle is moved to park and all indicators show park position is achieved. If the vehicle was parked on an incline, and the parking brake was not engaged, this could result in a vehicle roll-away condition, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix: Dealers will replace the parking pawl guide plate free of charge. The recall began on November 19, 2005.
