Land Rover is recalling 190 2018 Range Rover Evoque convertibles with 20-inch wheels because the tire pressure monitoring system is set incorrectly and fails to warn when a tire is 25% below the recommended cold pressure. Low pressure can lead to tire tread separation and a higher crash risk, and Land Rover dealers will update the TPMS settings free of charge.

What's wrong?
The Tire Pressure Monitoring System on the 2018 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque Convertible watches tire pressure and turns on a dashboard warning light when a tire is too low. On vehicles with 20-inch wheels, the system relies on pressure values stored in the instrument cluster, the dashboard electronics that also show driver warnings. Those stored values should match the cold inflation pressures printed on the tire placard.
On affected vehicles, the pressure values saved in the instrument cluster were set lower than the correct placard values. Because the TPMS uses those stored values as its trigger point, the warning light does not turn on at the required point, when tire pressure is 25% below the recommended cold inflation pressure. The placard information is correct; the dashboard-stored TPMS setting is the problem.
There is no warning sign before failure. The tire pressure light still turns on, but it turns on later than it should, so an underinflated tire can go unnoticed longer than the safety standard allows.

A matching year and model does not confirm inclusion. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific SUV is included.
What's the safety risk?
A TPMS setting that does not turn on the low-pressure warning leaves the driver without the prompt to add air or stop for service. Driving on an underinflated tire can lead to tread separation and increases the risk of a crash. Schedule the update soon. Repair is free at any franchised Land Rover dealer.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2018 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque is included in this recall.
- Contact a franchised Land Rover dealer to schedule the free TPMS software update that corrects the low-tire-pressure warning light setting.
- Bring the owner notice if you have it, and reference recall number 18V088 and Land Rover recall N164 when you call.
- Check tire pressure manually before driving until the software update is complete.
- Call Land Rover customer service at 1-800-637-6837 with questions about scheduling or owner notices.
What happens at the repair
At the dealer, a Land Rover technician updates the Tire Pressure Monitoring System setting so the instrument panel warning illuminates at the correct tire-pressure threshold. The software update is free under recall 18V088, with parts and labor covered by Land Rover. If you already paid out of pocket for the same TPMS setting correction before the recall notice, Land Rover's general reimbursement plan covers eligible documented expenses. Bring the repair paperwork and proof of payment to the service desk, or contact Land Rover customer service for claim instructions.

Frequently asked questions
What is recall 18V088?
Recall 18V088 covers 190 2018 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque convertibles equipped with 20-inch wheels. The TPMS setting fails to illuminate the warning light at the required low-tire-pressure threshold, which can lead to tire tread separation and increased crash risk.
What should I do if my 2018 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque is on this recall?
Check your VIN to confirm your specific vehicle is included in recall 18V088. If it is, contact a franchised Land Rover dealer and ask for the TPMS setting update. Reference Land Rover recall number N164 when you call. The repair is free.
Is the recall repair free?
Yes. Federal recall law requires the manufacturer to repair the defect at no cost. Land Rover dealers will update the TPMS setting free of charge so the low-tire-pressure warning illuminates at the required threshold.
Is it safe to drive my Range Rover Evoque before the TPMS repair?
The recall does not include a do-not-drive order. The risk is that the TPMS warning light does not alert you when tire pressure is too low, which can lead to tire tread separation. Check tire pressure manually and schedule the free dealer update.
What if I bought this Land Rover Range Rover Evoque used?
The free recall repair still applies. Federal recall law follows the vehicle, not the first owner. Check your VIN to confirm whether your Range Rover Evoque is included, then call a franchised Land Rover dealer and reference recall 18V088 or Land Rover number N164.
