Land Rover RANGE ROVER SPORT in the other registers
This site holds seven national and European registers. Land Rover RANGE ROVER SPORT is named on 37 American notices, 49 British, 35 European and 7 Israeli. Those are separate campaigns, filed with separate authorities on their own schedules.
The American register
The British register
- DVSA recall R/2005/154: Land Rover Discovery and Range Rover Sport (Buckle may not be retained)
- DVSA recall R/2005/156: Land Rover Range Rover Sport, Range Rover and Discovery (The parking function of the automatic transmission may not operate...)

- EU Safety Gate alert A12/1265/14: Land Rover Range Rover And Range Rover Sport, notified by United Kingdom
- EU Safety Gate alert A12/1583/14: Land Rover Discovery And Range Rover Sport, notified by United Kingdom
The Israeli register
Nothing here says any of these is this notice in another country. A model recalled in one country is often recalled in another, in different words and at a different time, and the authorities do not cross-reference each other. Reading them together is the reason this site holds more than one register.

Issue:
On certain vehicles, the DC/DC converter could fail. As a result, the 12 V battery would not charge and a red "Stop Safely Electrical Fault Detected" warning message would be displayed. If this happens, and you continue to drive the vehicle, there could be a loss of power to the wheels and/or the vehicle's lights could turn off.
Note: This recall only affects certain mild hybrid electric vehicles (MHEV).Safety Risk:
A loss of power to the wheels could increase the risk of a crash. Exterior lights that don't work may make the vehicle less visible to others and increase the risk of a crash.Corrective Actions:
Land Rover will notify owners by mail. The corrective actions for this recall are under development.
The wording above is the department's own, as it stood in the monthly file this site last read. Vehicle counts are the sum of the counts published for each make and model the recall covers. To act on a recall, use the official notice: Transport Canada recall 2026196.

Reading this against the source
This page is what Transport Canada published in the Vehicle Recalls Database, kept as it was read. The authority publishes only its current wording; if a notice is rewritten, the earlier version disappears there and is kept here. The whole register is at /canada, and how the reading is done is set out in the method.
What the words on this notice mean — the system it is filed under, and what the filing type says about who found the fault.
This notice names one vehicle among several registers that have written about it. Every notice this site holds for the Land Rover Range Rover Velar, in all seven, is kept on that vehicle's own page, with the newest in each.
This register keeps an index of its own for every maker and every year it holds: Canadian recalls on a Land Rover: 127 in the register, and 405 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 2026.
