Jaguar is recalling almost 21,000 Range Rover Evoque SUVs due to a defect in the passenger airbag that could pose a safety risk.
The airbags, which may tear upon deployment, could allow hot gases to escape, increasing the risk of burn injuries. This Jaguar Land Rover airbag recall is crucial for ensuring passenger safety.
The recall, announced July 7, by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) on July 7, 2025, affects 2021 to 2025 model year Range Rover Evoque vehicles.
The issue was identified after a months-long investigation by Jaguar Land Rover, which discovered inconsistencies in the folding of the airbags during assembly. These airbags were manufactured by Joyson Safety Systems Hungary, a prominent supplier in the automotive industry.
“A torn air bag may not adequately protect an occupant in a crash, increasing the risk of injury,” the recall says.
The affected vehicles were produced between July 10, 2020, and October 7, 2024, at Jaguar’s Halewood plant in the United Kingdom.
