LAND ROVER DISCOVERY SPORT ( 02/03/2017 – 07/03/2017) DEFECT: The locking ring retaining the fuel delivery module into the fuel tank may not have been correctly assembled onto the fuel tank during the tank assembly process. The driver may smell an increase in fuel odour and in some circumstances with the vehicle static there could be liquid fuel underneath the rear of the vehicle which in the presence of an ignition source could lead to a fire. It is also possible for fuel to leak onto the road surface which in the case of diesel fuel can present a skid hazard to other road users increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and inspect the fuel pump module retaining ring ensuring it is tightened to the correct specification if required.
