1999 LAND ROVER RANGE ROVER Recalls (5)

Campaign:
99V007000 on 01/20/1999
Component:
Engine and engine cooling
Manufactured:
10/13/1994 - 08/20/1998
Affected:
20,426
Defect:
Vehicle description: sport utility vehicles. as a result of water ingress and subsequent ice blockage, the transmission breather tube can become clogged, expelling transmission fluid from the dipstick tube onto hot engine components.
Consequence:
This leakage, in the presence of an ignition source, can result in an underhood fire.
Correction:
Dealers will remove the transmission breather tube from the inner fender and a section of the hose will be cut at an angle. this action will remove the end of the breather tube from any pooled water and will eliminate water droplets from clinging to the end of the tube.
Notes:
Owner notification began january 11, 1999.owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact land rover at 1-800-637-6837. also contact the national highway traffic safety administration's auto safety hotline at 1-888-dash-2-dot (1-888-327-4236).

Campaign:
00V142001 on 10/18/2000
Component:
Electronic stability control:automatic (asc)
Manufactured:
04/30/1998 - 05/30/2000
Affected:
36,911
Defect:
Vehicle description: sport utility vehicles. the loading conditions on the vehicle's left side engine idler pulley can exceed the maximum calculated figure of the original design specification. the material of the pulley can fracture and ultimately fail. failure of the pulley material can cause the pulley to throw off the serpentine belt.
Consequence:
This could result in a loss of engine auxiliary functions (power steering, water pump, alternator, air conditioning and ace).
Correction:
Dealers will install an improved idler pulley.

Campaign:
00V328000 on 10/25/2000
Component:
Engine and engine cooling:cooling system:hose
Manufactured:
09/30/1994 - 08/30/1998
Affected:
25,033
Defect:
Vehicle description: sport utility vehicles. coolant system leaks have been identified in areas where the coolant could be subjected to elevated temperatures.
Consequence:
Consequently, the fluid could ignite causing an under-hood fire.
Correction:
Dealers will make a series of modifications to several underhood hose components to eliminate the release of engine coolant.
Notes:

Campaign:
00V329000 on 10/25/2000
Component:
Vehicle speed control
Manufactured:
06/30/1998 - 01/30/1999
Affected:
2,957
Defect:
Vehicle description: sport utility vehicles. the cast alloy throttle body is heated by fluid bled from the cooling system, to prevent icing in extremely cold weather conditions. this fluid passes through a small attachment (plate) to the throttle body, which utilizes a cork gasket. the cork gasket has proven to be unreliable in this application. consequently, coolant fluid can leak from the interface between the de-icer plate and the throttle body.
Consequence:
Should this coolant collect on high temperature regions of the engine, the coolant fluid could ignite.
Correction:
Dealers will replace the throttle body gasket, de-icer attachment, and securing hardware.

Campaign:
00V377000 on 11/28/2000
Component:
Power train:automatic transmission
Manufactured:
06/30/1998 - 09/29/2000
Affected:
59,445
Defect:
Vehicle description: certain sport utility vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of fmvss no. 114, "theft protection." water contamination of the automatic transmission oil can lead to various failure modes of the transmission. one of these failure models results in incorrect operation of the park lock function that could allow a vehicle to roll away if parked without the handbrake properly set.
Consequence:
Unintentional vehicle movement could result in a crash or personal injury.
Correction:
Dealers will check the park lock function; reposition the automatic transmission breather tube; and test the automatic transmission fluid and flush if necessary.
