Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Land Rover is recalling certain Range Rover vehicles because the front passenger air bag inflators may rupture during a crash, potentially sending metal fragments at vehicle occupants and causing serious injury or death. The affected vehicles include 2012 models from high-humidity regions (Alabama, California, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Louisiana, Mississippi, South Carolina, Texas, Puerto Rico, American Samoa, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, and U.S. Virgin Islands); 2009 models from moderate-humidity regions (Arizona, Arkansas, Delaware, District of Columbia, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Maryland, Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Virginia, and West Virginia); and 2007-2008 models from low-humidity regions (Alaska, Colorado, Connecticut, Idaho, Iowa, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Montana, New Hampshire, New York, North Dakota, Oregon, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Utah, Vermont, Washington, Wisconsin, and Wyoming). The problem stems from propellant degradation in the inflators caused by long-term exposure to humidity and temperature changes.
Land Rover dealers will replace the front passenger air bag assemblies at no cost to owners. The recall began December 18, 2017. Owners should contact Land Rover customer service at 1-800-637-6837 and reference recall number P082 to arrange the replacement.
