What's wrong?
The Audio Amplifier Module (AAM) in the 2022 Land Rover Range Rover Velar is the amplifier that sends vehicle sounds through the cabin audio system. It is used for more than music. It also carries safety sounds, including the seat belt reminder, turn signal tick, and audible alerts from advanced driver assistance systems.
On affected Velars, the AAM was never installed before the vehicle left the port of entry. Land Rover had planned to add the module during port rework after the vehicles were shipped from the Solihull plant, but some vehicles were released before that work was complete. Without the module, the vehicle has no audio path for those warnings, so visual alerts are not backed up by sound.
The warning sign is broad and easy to check. The vehicle will have no audio output, including no belt minder chime, no directional indicator tick-tock, and no audible warning for certain ADAS events.

Not every 2022 Land Rover Range Rover Velar is on the list. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific SUV is included.
What's the safety risk?
Missing audio safety features leave the driver without sounds for seat belt reminders, turn signals, and ADAS warnings. That removes audible cues for routine driving and for critical events, which increases the risk of a crash or injury. Confirm the VIN and schedule the missing audio module installation. Repair is free at any franchised Land Rover dealer.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2022 Land Rover Range Rover Velar is included in this recall.
- Contact a franchised Land Rover dealer to schedule the free Audio Amplifier Module install that restores seat belt reminders, turn signal sounds, and ADAS warnings.
- Bring the recall notice if Land Rover mailed one. If not, reference recall number 22V581 when you call.
- Watch for visual seat belt, turn signal, and ADAS alerts until the Audio Amplifier Module is installed.
What happens at the repair
At the dealer, a Land Rover technician installs the missing Audio Amplifier Module. That module supplies audio safety alerts, including seat belt reminders, turn signal sounds, and ADAS warning tones. The recall repair is free, with parts and labor covered. Out-of-pocket repairs already paid are handled through Land Rover's new vehicle warranty program, not through a separate reimbursement program, because the affected vehicles are still under warranty. Ask the service desk how warranty coverage applies if you have prior repair paperwork.
