Jaguar Land Rover to recall over 250,500 SUVs in US over air bag issue, NHTSA says June 25 (Reuters) - Tata Motors-owned TAMO.NS Jaguar Land Rover is recalling 250,857 SUVs in the U.S. over an air bag defect that could increase the risk of injury in a crash, the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said on Thursday.
The recall covers certain Land Rover Defender, Discovery, and Range Rover SUVs, the U.S. auto safety regulator said.
The driver's air bag clockspring connector may corrode, preventing the air bag from deploying as intended, it said.
Dealers will apply a protective lubricant gel to the connector terminals free of charge, the regulator said.
