Rover Range Rover, Range Rover Sport, Range Rover Velar, Discovery and
Defender vehicles where in a small number of engines the cam carrier oil
gallery hasn’t been fully drilled. As a result, the oil channel could be blocked,
leading to accumulation of oil against the pressure control valve rubber
membrane, and subsequently an external oil leak or increased oil carryover
into the air intake system.
FMVSS 1 : NR
FMVSS 2 : NR
Description of the Safety Risk : In the event of a blockage, oil can accumulate against the engine pressure
control valve rubber membrane, and subsequently an external oil leak or
increased oil carryover into the air intake system can occur. An external oil
leak may lead to an engine bay fire.

Identification of Any Warning
that can Occur :

Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) received a report from Ryobi Aluminium Casting (UK) LTD, on November 23, 2022
that an oil channel had not been correctly drilled on a small number of engine cam carriers manufactured and
Part 573 Safety Recall Report 23V-044 Page 4
The information contained in this report was submitted pursuant to 49 CFR §573
supplied to JLR for installation on JLR’s 6-cylinder petrol engines. On November 25, 2022, Nitra and Solihull
vehicle assembly plants initiated a stop-shipment. Affected engines and vehicles were inspected to identify
potentially affected units. As a result of the stop-shipment, it was identified that vehicles had gone beyond
plant control and an update prior to sale was issued to instruct markets to hold vehicles, inspect the condition
and if ok release for onward distribution. Following this, an investigation was opened at the Product Safety &
Compliance Committee (PSCC). The PSCC requested the Supplier Technical Assistance Team (STA) to fully
define the scope of this issue. At the PSCC on December 07, 2023, the STA team reported their initial findings,
and the Engineering Team was requested to fully assess the impact of the incorrect drilling that had been
reported by the supplier. During December, the Engineering Team carried out physical engine testing with an
incorrectly machined component and reported their findings to the PSCC. At the PSCC of January 24, 2023, the
scope of the issue was finalized, and the consequences of the incorrect drilling was confirmed. Based on the
feedback provided, the PSCC progressed the issue to the Recall Determination Committee (RDC) for review.
The RDC reviewed the issue on January 26, 2023, and concluded that it represented an unreasonable risk to
safety, and a voluntary safety recall should be conducted to inspect vehicles and where an incorrectly
machined cam carrier is found replace with a correctly machined component. There have been no reported
accidents, injuries or vehicle fires as a result of this concern.
Description of Remedy :
Description of Remedy Program : Owners will be notified and instructed to take their vehicle to an approved
Jaguar Land Rover repairer. The technician will inspect the engine cam
carrier and where an incorrectly machined cam carrier is found replace it
with a correctly machined component. There will be no charge to the
owners for this repair. The affected vehicles will be covered under Land
Rover's new vehicle warranty program. Therefore, reimbursements for
pre-notice remedies are not necessary because the affected vehicles are
still under warranty.
How Remedy Component Differs
from Recalled Component :
NR
Identify How/When Recall Condition
was Corrected in Production :

Recall Schedule :
Description of Recall Schedule : Notifications to dealers will occur on February 16, 2023. Distribution of
owner notification letters will occur on or before March 31, 2023.
Planned Dealer Notification Date : FEB 16, 2023 - FEB 16, 2023
