Recall 20V517 affects 1,285 2020 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque vehicles for incorrect TPMS software. Repair is free at any franchised Land Rover dealer.
Land Rover is recalling 1,285 2020 Range Rover Evoque non-PHEV SUVs with 18-inch wheels because the tire pressure warning is set too low in the instrument cluster. The TPMS light does not come on at 25% below placard pressure, so drivers can operate the vehicle with low tire pressure, reduced handling, and higher crash risk; Land Rover dealers will complete the recall repair free of charge.

What's wrong?
The Tire Pressure Monitoring System, or TPMS, on the 2020 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque watches tire pressure and turns on a warning light when a tire drops too low. On non-PHEV vehicles with 18-inch wheels, the system uses pressure values stored in the instrument cluster, then compares live tire pressure against those stored values. The tire placard still shows the correct cold tire pressures.
On affected vehicles, the pressure values stored in the instrument cluster are lower than the correct placard values. Because the TPMS is checking against the wrong baseline, the warning light still works, but it turns on later than required. At 25% below the cold inflation pressure listed on the placard, the light will not illuminate as required for this system.
There is no warning sign before failure. An owner cannot tell from normal driving that the instrument cluster has the wrong TPMS pressure setting, so the placard and VIN check matter.
Who's affected?
The listed components point to one software issue, covering electrical system software and tire pressure monitoring.

A matching 2020 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque does not guarantee inclusion. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific SUV is included.
What's the safety risk?
If the tire-pressure warning does not alert you correctly, you can keep driving with low tire pressure without realizing it. Low pressure hurts vehicle handling and increases the risk of a crash. Check tire pressure with a gauge until the software update is complete. Repair is free at any franchised Land Rover dealer.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2020 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque is included in this recall.
- Contact a franchised Land Rover dealer to schedule the free instrument-cluster software update that corrects the TPMS low-pressure warning.
- Bring the recall notice if Land Rover mailed one. If not, reference recall number 20V517 when you call.
- Check tire pressure manually before driving until the software update is complete.
What happens at the repair
At the dealer, a Land Rover technician updates the instrument cluster software so the Tire Pressure Monitoring System uses the correct recommended pressure for the 18-inch wheel setup. The recall repair is available now, and the software update is free. Land Rover lists a general reimbursement plan for this campaign. If you already paid out of pocket for a related instrument cluster or TPMS software repair before the recall, contact Land Rover customer service and ask how to submit documentation under that plan.

Frequently asked questions
What is recall 20V517?
Recall 20V517 covers 1,285 2020 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque non-PHEV vehicles with 18-inch wheels. The instrument cluster has the wrong TPMS recommended pressure setting, so the warning light fails to illuminate at the required low-pressure threshold. Land Rover dealers will update the software for free.
What should I do if my 2020 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque is on this recall?
Check your VIN to confirm your specific vehicle is included in recall 20V517. If it is, contact a franchised Land Rover dealer and ask for the instrument cluster software update under recall N486. The dealer repair is free.
Is the recall repair free?
Yes. Federal recall law requires the manufacturer to fix the defect at no cost, and Land Rover dealers will update the instrument cluster software free of charge. Reference recall 20V517 or Land Rover recall number N486 when you call for service.
What is the safety risk?
Low tire pressure can affect vehicle handling and increase crash risk. In this recall, the TPMS warning light does not illuminate when tire pressure reaches 25% below the cold inflation pressure on the tire placard, so the driver loses a key warning to correct the pressure.
