Summary:
Jaguar Land Rover is recalling certain model year 2012 LR2 and Range
Rover Evoque vehicles manufactured on June 11, 2012. The rear brake
caliper retaining bolts may be insufficiently torqued.

risk of a vehicle crash.

tighten the rear brake caliper retaining bolts, free of charge. The
recall is expected to begin on, or before, January 18, 2013. Owners
