Are you referring to the crank shaft failure?

Not sure if the operative word is ârecallâ or just a checkup. They reportedly donât seem to do anything too invasive to the vehicles...

â Jaguar Land Rover
Watchdogâ Live has also heard from dozens of Land Rover Discovery drivers who have experienced sudden and total engine failure, linked to a faulty crank shaft.
Models of the Discovery dating back to 2009 have been recalled over various crank shaft issues in New Zealand, Canada, South Korea and China, but there has only been a limited recall of 219 cars in the UK. The DVSA told Watchdog Live that it is aware of a potential crank shaft problem with models of Land Rover Discovery. But it said that it does not consider engine failure alone a serious safety issue that warrants a recall.â
