2015 Land Rover Range Rover Steering Problems

“I was made aware of a potential issue with my vehicles steering knuckle breaking where it connects to the upper control arm. I was also informed that Land Rover has done a recall in the UK for this same issue. I checked my vehicle and it does indeed hav a crack in the steering knuckle.

Also fortunate that it didn’t happen the night before while driving on the interstate. …”
