## What is wrong

Issue:

On certain vehicles, the brackets that secure the third\-row seat belt anchors may not have been manufactured properly. As a result, the seat belt\(s\) could detach in a crash.

Safety Risk:

A seat belt that detaches in a crash could increase the risk of injury.

Corrective Actions:

To reduce the safety risk, Land Rover recommends that you shouldn't transport passengers in the third\-row seats until the recall repairs are completed. Land Rover will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to install bolt\(s\) to secure the third\-row seat belt anchor brackets or, if necessary, replace the anchor brackets.
