2015 Land Rover LR4 Recall 15V214: ABS Software Error

Recall 15V214 affects 2,687 2015 Land Rover LR4 vehicles for an ABS software error affecting stability controls. Free repair at any franchised Land Rover dealer.

Land Rover is recalling 2,687 2015 LR4 SUVs because an ABS software error can disable Dynamic Stability Control, Roll Stability Control, Traction Control, and Hill Descent Control. Without those systems, the vehicle can lose stability and control, which raises crash risk; Land Rover dealers provide the recall repair free of charge.

What's wrong?

The 2015 Land Rover LR4 uses anti-lock braking system software to help several stability features work together. ABS helps manage wheel lockup during braking, while Dynamic Stability Control, Roll Stability Control, Traction Control, and Hill Descent Control help the vehicle stay stable when grip, body roll, or steep grades become a concern.

In recall 15V214, a software error in the ABS system disables those support systems. When that happens, the LR4 loses electronic stability and traction assistance that the driver expects to be available. The filing also notes that the air suspension drops to access height after the fault appears.

Owners have warning signs before the systems are disabled. The DSC warning lamp illuminates in the instrument cluster, an amber warning light appears, and the display shows a "Suspension Fault" message.

Who's affected?

The same LR4 issue is listed under electronic stability control and electrical system software.

A matching year and model does not guarantee inclusion. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific SUV is included.

What's the safety risk?

Disabled stability and traction systems can reduce vehicle stability and control, increasing crash risk. If the DSC warning lamp comes on or the cluster shows "Suspension Fault," drive cautiously and schedule the ABS software update soon. Repair is free at any franchised Land Rover dealer.

What should I do?

  1. Check your VIN to confirm your 2015 Land Rover LR4 is included in this recall.
  2. Contact a franchised Land Rover dealer to schedule the free ABS software update that fixes the software error tied to disabled stability and traction systems.
  3. Bring the recall notice if Land Rover mailed one. If not, reference recall number 15V214 and Land Rover recall P062 when you call.
  4. Drive cautiously until the software update is complete. Avoid hard braking and leave extra following distance.

What happens at the repair

At the dealer, a Land Rover technician updates the Anti Lock Braking System software so the stability, roll stability, traction control, and hill descent control systems stay enabled as designed. The recall repair is free, and the campaign has been open since May 21, 2015. Out of pocket repairs already paid are handled through Jaguar Land Rover's New Vehicle Limited 4 year warranty, not through a separate reimbursement program. Ask the service desk how warranty coverage applies if you have prior repair paperwork.
