What's wrong?
The gear shift module is the control unit for the automatic shifter. It identifies the selected gear and uses an indicator light to show the driver the shifter position. On 2025-2026 Range Rover Evoque, Redundant Range Rover, Discovery Sport, Range Rover Sport, and F-Pace vehicles in this recall, that display is the affected part.
Moisture entered the gear shift module during assembly. That moisture interferes with the light that marks the selected gear, so the driver loses the illuminated confirmation of whether the shifter is in park, reverse, neutral, or drive. The recall is a compliance issue because the gear position display is required to be visible under the federal controls and displays standard.
There is no warning sign before failure. The issue shows up when the gear shift position indicator light does not illuminate, leaving the driver without the normal lighted confirmation at the shifter.

What's the safety risk?
If the gear shift position indicator does not light, the driver can have trouble confirming the transmission gear position, which increases crash risk. Check the selector display before moving, use extra care when shifting, and schedule service promptly if the display is dark or unclear. Repair will be free at any franchised Land Rover dealer once available.

What happens at the repair

Parts and labor will be free under the recall. Land Rover used its general reimbursement plan on file, so documented out of pocket repairs paid before the recall notice are handled through that standard plan.
