Previous recall repair on rear spoiler falling off did not work and it is falling off again. Dealer and manufacturer will not re-repair the manufacturers defect nor their work, leaving the hazard unaddressed. Sees below. Nhtsa, please be advised that Jaguar Land Rover north America is not adhering to the required national highway traffic safety administration’s official recall, 21v635000, where the rear spoiler falls off due to a manufacturers design defect and potentially can cause a serious accident, injury or even a fatality at highway speeds. The vehicle was previously fixed under recall, but that fix failed. VIN: [xxx] I have been advised by the owner/manager of Land Rover of the treasure coast that it is more important that they get reimbursed prior to fixing the defect, despite the safety of others on the road. This needs to be investigated. My concerns are: 1. Did Jaguar Land Rover (jlr) hoodwink NHTSA into a cheap, non-lasting fix just to satisfy the liability and recall requirement? if so, NHTSA should reissue another recall to recheck the previous recall to verify the fix was adequate and either do it again or develop another solution, bringing those affected vehicles in again for additional work. This is especially true since jd power and other reputable car statistical reviews consistently rate this brand towards the bottom of reliability and repair costs. This historical point demonstrates why the NHTSA should not trust jlr. 2. How important is public safety? if a safety recall was important enough to be issued in the first place, how is it that a follow up repair for the same recall isn’t addressed? why isn’t there a readily available avenue for reporting this shortcoming on the NHTSA website. Can anyone explain how if a safety recall campaign was important enough to be issued in the first place, why is it not if the same issue fails again, or if the approved resolution was inadequate? document exceeded allowable space- information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information.

Vehicle: 2010 Land Rover Range Rover Sport VIN: [xxx] issue: a safety recall repair previously performed on my vehicle has failed, recreating the original safety hazard the recall was intended to fix. Details: my vehicle was subject to a recall involving [rear spoiler detachment risk]. The recall repair was “performed “ without proof by Land Rover of cincinnati in Aug 2023. As of April 2025, the same issue has reoccurred. Specifically: the spoiler detached while driving on interstate 75. (this spoiler never detached before they “fixed” it. - this created a serious safety hazard coming undone in the highway. It actually got a semi trucks front number as he crushed over it. . ,the semi driver did not stop to report it though. Concern: this indicates the recall remedy may have been improperly performed or is ineffective. I am being told I must pay out of pocket $6500 to fix an issue that should have been resolved under a federally mandated safety recall. Request: I am requesting investigation into: 1) whether the recall repair procedure is adequate 2) whether this repair was properly completed 3) whether other vehicles may be affected by failed recall remedies dealer: Land Rover location: cincinnati OH information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.

I received the notice in November of 2020 about this safety issue. Three weeks ago the rear spoiler flew off while driving at posted speeds down the highway, unbeknownst to me until I arrived at my destination. I immediately called the dealer to schedule the repair based on this notice, and am now being told the part is unavailable, with no eta. I am experiencing "loss of use" of my vehicle due to this safety recall, while I am waiting for this part. Land rover Jaguar will not agree to cover any additional damage should I choose to drive my vehicle with the wiring exposed due to the spoiler not being replaced in a timely manner.

Failure Date: 09/30/2020

While driving the car wash in brentwood, TN. I heard a loud pop. The spoiler came off the top of the roof. The wind device must have blown it off? I have taped it down with 3m double sided tape. It is not secured.

8 Body problem

Failure Date: 06/15/2020

I noted that the rear spoiler consists of two main parts that are fastened together, however over time the two sections become separated. There does appear to be a current recall noted for this issue, however in the dealers initial notification it was indicated they would follow up with additional communication when they received the necessary parts for repair. Am concerned that the part could come off at any time while on the highway.
