Recalls that may affect cars built around 2007
2 of the Land Rover Range Rover’s 67 recalls in DVSA’s records cover cars built during 2007.
The 2007 on this page is the year of first registration, not the year the car was built. A car first registered early in 2007 may have been built in 2006, and recalls apply to particular build dates and VINs, so check the recalls either side too.
| Launched | Concern | Built | Vehicles |
|---|---|---|---|
| 23 Jan 2015 | Possible loss of braking efficiency | 14 Mar 2005 to 26 Jul 2012 | 34,134 |
| 3 Dec 2010 | Fire may occur | 1 Sept 2006 to 30 Jun 2009 | 255 (all models) |

Data sources and methodology
| Figures | Source | Period | Records | Updated |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| MOT results and mileage | Anonymised MOT tests and results Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency Derived statistics UK Motoring | 2025 | 3,243 MOT tests of 2007 Land Rover Range Rover cars | 15 September 2026 |

- MOT figures cover normal tests in Great Britain in 2025 of Land Rover Range Rover cars first registered in 2007; retests are excluded. “All cars” means every car we match to a model, first registered in 2007.
- Year of first registration is DVSA’s first-use date: when the car was first registered, in the UK or abroad.
- Defects and advisories are DVSA’s descriptions made readable. Where on the car a defect was found (side, front or rear) is ignored, so the same fault on any wheel counts once per test.
- Mileage is the odometer reading at each car’s latest normal MOT of the year, as recorded by the tester. A few readings are in kilometres or mistyped; percentiles are not thrown by a handful of outliers.
- Cars on the record come from DfT table VEH0124 and cover the United Kingdom, including Northern Ireland; MOT figures cover Great Britain only.
- DVSA records the model name typed in at the test. We match those names to DVLA’s generic models, so a handful of tests may be counted under a close relative.
