2003 LAND ROVER RANGE ROVER Recall
- Campaign:
- 08V635000 on 12/02/2008
- Component:
- Power train:driveline:driveshaft
- Manufactured:
- 01/02/2002 - 02/21/2005
- Affected:
- 19,168
- Defect:
- Land rover is recalling 19,168 my 2003-2005 range rover vehicles. the front differential coupling sleeve and the propeller shaft may be misaligned, resulting in spline wear over a period of time. as the wear between the propeller shaft and the differential spline coupling progresses, noise and vibration are expected.
- Consequence:
- Continued vehicle operation can eventually result in the splines shearing and a loss of drive, increasing the risk of a crash.
- Correction:
- Dealers will install a revised design of the propeller shaft, the flange kit and heat shield kit. the recall began on january 6, 2009. owners may contact land rover at 1-800- 637-6837.
- Notes:
- Land rover recall no. p041.customers may also contact the national highway traffic safety administration's vehicle safety hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (tty 1-800-424-9153), or go to http://www.safercar.gov.
