GKN Automotive is recalling 18 replacement driveshafts sold for use in 2006-2015 BMW Mini, 2004-2018 Land Rover Discovery, and Range Rover vehicles. These aftermarket replacement parts can crack or break during use, leading to mechanical failure. GKN will reimburse owners for the cost of a new replacement driveshaft and the labor required for installation.
A broken driveshaft can result in a sudden loss of drive power while the vehicle is in motion or allow the vehicle to roll away while parked. Both conditions significantly increase the risk of a crash or injury to bystanders.
Reimbursement for part and labor costs
