Land Rover bulletin SSM76498 - 24AUG26
Land Rover filed this with NHTSA as a manufacturer communication dated Aug 25, 2026, received Sep 8, 2026, about the unknown or other. It names 5 model years (2022–2026). A manufacturer communication is not a safety recall: it is the manufacturer telling its dealers how to diagnose or repair a condition, and whether the work is paid for depends on the warranty in force. Quoting the number at a service desk can save a diagnosis.
