LAND ROVER RANGE ROVER ( 20/08/2012 – 18/09/2012) DEFECT: The steering rack mounting bolts may not be fully tight. If the steering gear fixings are below the required torque the driver will experience abnormal noise and feedback through the steering wheel during low speed manoeuvring and at higher speeds some easily corrected minor over steer. If the driver ignores the warning signs both fixings could become sufficiently loose to detach from the vehicle making directional control of the vehicle difficult.
Remedy
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to inspect the steering gear and check the steering gear mounting fixings are tightened to the correct torque.
