Land Rover now included in airbag recall

From my research, it seems that the 2007 through 2011 Range Rover models are affected

DVLA in UK know of problem cars and are not being proactive in getting it sorted, so one assumes they are hiding behind Crown Immunity if it kills your nearest and dearest. Censored FL2 MY10 TD4 GS traded in at 2 years

DVLA only intervene if the car manufacturer is not making adequate measures to fix. They will of course provide details of registered keepers. https://www.gov.uk/vehicle-recalls-and-fau...ccessories

Crown immunity rarely applies these days as government bodies have to comply with the Law.

United Kingdom 2013 Freelander 2 TD4 GS Manual Firenze Red

Mercedes allowed my wife's car to be delivered with a known fault and only 9 months later when car was in for a warranty item did they admit the car was potentially able to kill the passenger if the air bag went off. All this time the DVLA had our car on a recall list. Fact. No attempt was made to contact us and hundreds of other Mercs not being called in. Fact. My money is on the Crown denying responsibility if anyone is/was killed. Bet there are still cars not sorted. FL2 MY10 TD4 GS traded in at 2 years
