New reports in the media actually point back to June 17 at the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) site. This recall covers roughly 65,000 vehicles in the 2013 to 2016 Range Rover models and 2014 to 2016 Range Rover Sport models. A software glitch in the keyless entry software means the doors may not latch properly, which could allow the doors to open while the vehicle is being driven.
Separately, from prior recall news searches, the Edmunds website showed that while Land Rover was not affected by the Takata airbag recalls, other issues have created recalls now. Still, Edmunds also showed back in February that Jaguar Land Rover North America recalled some 61,793 Land Rover Range Rover SUVs from 2013 to 2015 models and Range Rover Sport SUVs in 2014 and 2015 models because the front passenger airbag may be disabled.
Also in February came news that Jaguar Land Rover North America was recalling some 74,648 Land Rover Range Rover SUVs from 2006 to 2012 models to fix a brake hose problem.
The TrueCar site shows an MSRP of $102,990 and an average price of $103,703 for a 2015 Range Rover, and it shows an MSRP of $69,290 and an average paid price of $69,860 for a 2015 Range Rover Sport. The Range Rover website shows that the Range Rover starts as $83,495 and the Range Rover Sport starts at $63,650 — but of course that is for the base models and does not include options.
