On certain vehicles, the wiring that connects the steering column rotary coupler (clockspring) to the driver's airbag module may fracture as a result of relative motion between the clockspring and the steering wheel hub. This may result in the deployment of only one stage of the dual stage airbag during a vehicle crash of sufficient severity, or cause the airbag to not deploy at all. Should the airbag module fail to deploy in the intended manner, it could increase the driver's risk of injury or death. Correction: Dealers will insert alignment spacers into specific areas of the steering column.

On certain vehicles equipped with 19 inch wheels, when the steering is on full left lock and the suspension is moving towards full compression, the left front brake hose, ABS wheel speed sensor lead, and, brake pad wear warning sensor lead, can catch on the wheel balance weight as the wheel rotates. This may lead to warnings of premature brake pad wear, warnings of ABS failure, or extended brake pedal travel and loss of one of the hydraulic service braking system circuits, which could result in extended stopping distances and a vehicle crash. Correction: Dealers will inspect the left front brake pipe assembly and replace if required. All clip-on wheel weights will be replaced with stick-on weights. Additionally, an owners handbook supplement will be produced stating the requirement to use stick-on wheel weights should future wheel balancing be required.

2006 Land Rover Range Rover Sport recall questions
Transport Canada lists 5 recalls for the 2006 Land Rover Range Rover Sport model year. That counts campaigns naming this model year, not recalls on your vehicle: many cover only a VIN range or production window, and some only vehicles found on inspection. NHTSA lists 6 United States campaigns for the US-market model, shown separately; a US campaign may have no Canadian equivalent.
Enter your VIN in Land Rover's Canadian recall lookup, or call a Land Rover dealer with your VIN. In Canada the manufacturer is responsible for showing recall and repair status for each VIN, so its lookup is the authoritative answer. Cardog uses your VIN only to find the model year; the recalls shown here are listed for that model year and are not matched to your VIN.
Not necessarily. NHTSA campaigns cover vehicles sold in the United States, and NHTSA's VIN lookup has no Canadian data. When a defect also affects Canadian vehicles, the manufacturer files a separate notice with Transport Canada, often under a different number and sometimes covering a different set of vehicles. For a Canadian vehicle, go by the Transport Canada listing and Land Rover's Canadian lookup.
Safety recall repairs are normally done at no charge by an authorised Land Rover dealer. The manufacturer's notice for each campaign sets out the remedy and any conditions, so confirm with the dealer when you book.
Once Land Rover's lookup or a dealer confirms a recall applies, book the repair with an authorised Land Rover dealer and bring your VIN. If the manufacturer's notice says not to drive the vehicle or to park it outside, follow that instruction. Parts can take time, so book early.
Follow the manufacturer's notice for that recall. Most allow normal driving until the repair; some tell owners to stop driving or to park outside until it is fixed. Cardog does not grade recalls by severity: the manufacturer's notice and your dealer are the source.
Manufacturers must notify owners they have on record. If you bought the vehicle used or have moved, update your details with Land Rover Canada so notices reach you, and check the manufacturer's lookup from time to time.
