SEATS
- The defect
- Jaguar Land Rover North America, LLC (Land Rover) is recalling certain 2020 Range Rover Evoque vehicles equipped with climate specification front seats trimmed with "Dinamica" cloth. In the event of a fire, the seat material may burn quicker than allowed. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 302, "Flammability of Interior Materials."
- What it can cause
- A seat cover that burns too quickly can increase the risk of injury in the event of a fire.
- What the dealer does
- Land Rover will notify owners, and dealers will replace the front seat covers, free of charge. The recall began February 26, 2021. Owners may contact Land Rover customer service at 1-800-637-6837. Land Rover's number for this recall is N524.
- NHTSA's note
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .

How this campaign compares
At 66 vehicles this is a small campaign: 75% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published are as large or larger. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers one model year, 2020, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2020, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.
Land Rover vehicles have been recalled over the seats 2 times before this, most recently in January 2020 as 20V053000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
This site holds the complaint record for all 1 model year the campaign names. Their owners have filed 49 complaints with NHTSA, 6 of them before this campaign was filed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 10 other recalls published here, the newest being: 26V248000 (electrical system), 25V454000 (air bags), 25V089000 (air bags), 25V088000 (air bags).
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Jaguar Land Rover North America, LLC with NHTSA on December 17, 2020 as campaign 20V794000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
