## What is wrong

Jaguar Land Rover North America, LLC \(Land Rover\) is recalling certain 2017\-2018 Discovery vehicles equipped with low line headlight assemblies.  When towing a trailer with the trailer lights connected to the trailer socket and the vehicle's Daytime Running Lights \(DRL\) are on, the trailer lights may not function.


## What can happen

If the trailer lights are not working, following traffic won't be aware the vehicle is slowing down or stopping, increasing the risk of a crash.


## The remedy

Land Rover will notify owners, and dealers will update the Body Control Module software, free of charge.  The recall began April 13, 2020.  Owners may contact Land Rover customer service at 1\-800\-637\-6837.  Land Rover's number for this recall is N428.


## Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1\-888\-327\-4236 \(TTY 1\-800\-424\-9153\), or go to www.safercar.gov.
