Steering problem

There is a safety recall for the 2019-2020 Land Rover Discovery models. 414-01 safety recall: startup battery ground stud - insufficient ground contact Land Rover tech bulletin dated 09 Dec 2020 on July 25 my 2017 Land Rover Discovery lost power, instrumentation went haywire, and steering limp as I was making a turn onto us-90. On August 5 it would not start. Eventually jump started it, as the battery did not seem to register to the vehicle. On August 6 it again lost power, drive train went limp, all warnings lit up, and steering died as I was getting onto I-95 on August 7 jlr of jacksonville informed me they found arching burn marks on the battery ground stud. They knew this as a common issue from the previous tech bulletin. The 2017&2018 have the same design as the 2019&2020, why are the 2017&2018 not included in the recall?.
