What Happened
The Occupant Classification System is a computer in your Land Rover that helps decide whether or not your front passenger air bag should inflate in a crash. In some 2010-2015 LR2 and 2012-2013 Range Rover Evoque models, this computer might not work properly.
Risk if Unfixed
If you're in a crash and the air bag is supposed to deploy, but it doesn't or doesn't work right, you or your passenger could get hurt more seriously than if the air bag had worked as it should.
Free Fix
Your Land Rover dealer will update the computer that controls the air bag, making sure it's working correctly. This repair is free, and you should schedule it as soon as you get the recall notice.
