What's wrong?

The lug nuts on the 2015 Land Rover Range Rover Sport, LR4, and Range Rover clamp each wheel to the hub studs. A hub stud is the threaded post that the lug nut tightens onto, and the wheel depends on those nuts staying tight and intact.

On affected vehicles, the lug nuts were made from hot rolled steel instead of the specified cold drawn steel. That matters because the substituted steel had lower tensile strength, meaning less ability to hold force without stripping or breaking. Land Rover found failures where the threads stripped or the nut fractured near a curved stress point. Once that happens, the nut detaches from the wheel hub stud and the wheel loses some of its clamping force.

The filing does not describe a driver warning before a lug nut cracks or detaches. There is no warning sign before failure.

The year and model narrow the scope, but the VIN decides. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific SUV is included.

What's the safety risk?

Cracked or detached wheel lug nuts can leave the wheel unsecured. If a wheel separates from the vehicle, the driver loses control and crash risk increases. Schedule the recall repair soon so the dealer can replace the wheel nuts. Repair is free at any franchised Land Rover dealer.

What should I do?

  1. Check your VIN to confirm your 2015 Land Rover Range Rover Sport, LR4, or Range Rover is included in this recall.
  2. Contact a franchised Land Rover dealer to schedule the free wheel-nut replacement for the cracking lug nuts.
  3. Bring the recall notice if Land Rover mailed one. If not, reference recall number 15V092 and Land Rover recall P056 when you call.
  4. Drive cautiously until the repair because cracked or detached lug nuts can leave the wheel unsecured.

What happens at the repair

At the dealer, a Land Rover technician replaces the cracked or suspect wheel nuts with new wheel nuts. The replacement parts and labor are free under recall 15V092. Land Rover has a general reimbursement plan on file for owners who paid out of pocket before the recall work. If you have prior wheel nut or wheel lug repair paperwork, bring receipts and documentation to the service desk and ask how to submit the claim.

What should I do if my 2015 Land Rover Range Rover Sport, LR4, or Range Rover is on this recall?

Check your VIN to confirm your specific vehicle is included in recall 15V092. If it is, contact a franchised Land Rover dealer to schedule replacement wheel nuts. Reference recall number 15V092 or Land Rover recall P056 when you call.

Is the recall repair free?
