That recall has been going on for a few months now, at least Toyota recalled the vehicle, if it were LRA they would just deny knowledge of any problem until the cows came home. Prime examples are the oil in the injector harness on the TD5, 4.0 and 4.6 V8's needing relining after a few years of service.

From memory the only recalls on LR vehicles I have had experience in are a direct result of the fault rendering the in warrantee vehicle being unfit for emissions laws and regulations in AUS, then 90% of the time the owner still has to check to make sure that the recall has been done properly.

Land Rover don't have a jingle otherwise it would be this

YouTube- chitty chitty bang bang


Remember it, it's an uplifting tune next time you have to replace an axle on the side of the highway, at midnight, in the pouring rain. ;)

The Lexus's (Lexi?) haven't been spared either:
