What's wrong?

The fuel tank outlet flange on the 2010-2016 Land Rover LR4 and Range Rover Sport is the plate where fuel leaves the tank and moves into the fuel delivery system. It seals the fuel pump opening so gasoline stays contained while the pump sends fuel toward the engine. That seal matters because the tank is under the vehicle and fuel needs a closed path from the tank to the engine.

On affected vehicles, the outlet flange mounted on the fuel tank can crack. Once the flange cracks, gasoline can escape at the tank instead of staying inside the fuel system. The filing does not give a detailed root cause, so the important repair issue is the cracked flange and the leak path it creates.

Owners reported fuel odor, an amber malfunction indicator lamp on the instrument cluster, and liquid fuel on the ground. Those are warning signs to take seriously because they point to gasoline leaving the sealed fuel system.
