Good news: Recall repairs cost you nothing. Book with any manufacturer dealer and quote the recall number — they are required to do the work free of charge, with no time limit and regardless of how many owners the car has had.

Why it matters

An airbag that doesn't work properly could increase the risk of injury in a crash.

What the dealer will do

Land Rover will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to apply grease to the driver's airbag connector terminals.

Seats And Restraints

Transport Canada recall 2026126 · manufacturer campaign D098 / D113

18 March 2026

Transport Canada lists: Defender 2026

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the brackets that secure the third-row seat belt anchors may not have been manufactured properly. As a result, the seat belt(s) could detach in a crash.

Why it matters

A seat belt that detaches in a crash could increase the risk of injury.

What the dealer will do

To reduce the safety risk, Land Rover recommends that you shouldn't transport passengers in the third-row seats until the recall repairs are completed. Land Rover will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to install bolt(s) to secure the third-row seat belt anchor brackets or, if necessary, replace the anchor brackets.
