From The Gladstone Observer -

"LAND Rover and Range Rover cars are facing a recall over a suspension issue which could lead to drivers losing control of their vehicle.

The suspension flaw could see the vehicles run off the road.

"If the vehicle is exposed to a shock impact such as a deep pothole or kerb strike to the affected front wheel the front suspension may fail," a product recall issued by the ACCC read.

"If the front suspension fails, the affected front wheel will separate from its lower joint and create vehicle instability. This can lead to a loss of vehicle control."

The car models impacted are the Range Rover Evoque and Land Rover Discovery Sport (2016 and 2017 model years only)."

Is this a weakness with the lower control arm?

That doesn't sound great. Any updates or more info about the problem(s) ?
