Almost 62,000 Range Rover models are being recalled by Land Rover following an investigation from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
The issue relates to the occupant classification system of the Range Rover and a potential problem with it. It is suggested that the system may be unable to recognise whether a small adult or if a child is sitting in the front passenger seat. Consequently, the airbag could be disabled even if it should be turned on for a small adult.
