Jaguar Land Rover Australia has recalled 361 examples of the 2020-2024 Discovery Sport, Range Rover Evoque and Range Rover Velar due to a fire risk caused by an oil leak.
The latest recall comes a day after three other Land Rover models were recalled for an unrelated fire risk.
“Due to a manufacturing defect, the engine turbocharger oil delivery pipe may not have been sufficiently tightened,” Land Rover said in today’s recall notice.
“As a result, the pipe may become loose over time and could lead to an oil leak into the engine bay and accumulate in the presence of an ignition source potentially resulting in a vehicle fire.
“A vehicle fire could increase the risk of injury or death to vehicle occupants, other road users and bystanders, and/or damage to property.”
