What the bulletin says
Source: NHTSA's summary of the manufacturer's communicationWhat it applies to, as NHTSA’s summary states it — build dates and equipment as the manufacturer filed them. The dealer checks the VIN and the build date on the door jamb; a vehicle outside the window is not covered by this bulletin.
A concern has been identified for specific vehicles within the above vehicle range. Testing of V8 S/C 5.0L Gasoline Defender vehicles has revealed an inability to meet the noxious gas pollutant levels for every grade of fuel during a certification test drive cycle. As a result, vehicles of this specification do not comply with the certified state and may not be sold or imported into USA and Canada until they are capable of meeting the legal limits and as certified state. Repair is being determined

Is the N907 repair free?
A emissions communication is usually paid by the manufacturer on the vehicles it names, within the terms and time limit the document sets; the dealer checks the VIN against the manufacturer’s list.
Which vehicles does N907 cover?
The manufacturer filed it against 1 model year: 2024 Land Rover Defender. Whether one particular vehicle is affected is a matter of its VIN and its build, not its model year alone.
