LAND ROVER RANGE ROVER ( 11/06/2012 – 11/06/2012) DEFECT: Mounting bolts for the rear brake caliper may not be torqued to the correct specification. This will create noise from the rear of the vehicle whilst it is being driven and during braking and should warn the driver of the issue. However if the vehicle continues to be driven it is possible the bolts can work loose thus allowing the brake caliper to detach. This will result in the caliper contacting the road wheel which can cause brake failure or sudden deflation of the tyre with subsequent loss of control of the vehicle.
Remedy
Recall affected vehicles to check the mounting bolts and re-torque them.
