Jaguar Land Rover North America is recalling 868 vehicles, specifically certain 2020-2021 Range Rover PHEV and 2020-2022 Range Rover Sport PHEV models. These hybrid vehicles fail to produce the required pedestrian warning sounds while they are stationary or moving in reverse. This defect means the vehicles do not comply with federal safety standards for quiet electric and hybrid vehicles. Authorized dealers will update the audio amplifier software to ensure the warning sounds meet safety requirements at no cost to owners.
When a vehicle does not make enough noise while stationary or in reverse, nearby pedestrians may not be aware that the vehicle is approaching or about to move. This lack of audible warning significantly increases the risk of a pedestrian being struck by the vehicle.
Software update for the audio amplifier.
