Service bulletin BIG5DEC23_31

A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it. The summary is NHTSA's. The document is the manufacturer's: read it at NHTSA. A bulletin is not a recall, and listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned.

NHTSA's summary

A concern has been identified on US Land Rover Defender 130 vehicles that have been modified as part of the preparations for JLRNA's TReK event. During the vehicle preparation, reinstallation of brake calipers did not follow the published repair procedure. If the brake calipers are not installed correctly, there is a risk the calipers may detach, resulting in degraded braking performance and possible structural damage to the wheel. Vehicles will require the brake caliper bolts, hoses and associated parts to be replaced following TOPIx workshop manual procedures.

A recall listed here may apply to some of the same vehicles. Only the manufacturer can say whether it applies to one vehicle.
