The Consumer Protection Authority has announced the recall of a number of Land Rover - Evoque vehicles from model years (2020-2025), as part of its ongoing efforts to ensure consumer safety and enhance the quality of products circulating in the markets.
This recall comes in line with the monitoring campaigns carried out by the Authority in cooperation with the relevant entities, whereby the number of affected vehicles has reached (87) vehicles.
The reason for the recall is attributed to the possibility of the passenger airbag tearing upon deployment as a result of improper folding, which may lead to the leakage of hot gases and cause burns to passengers, in addition to reducing the level of protection and increasing the risk of injury in the event of an accident.
Accordingly, the Authority calls upon all owners of the affected vehicles to promptly contact the dealer to carry out the necessary repairs, which include the replacement of the front passenger airbag, free of charge.
The Consumer Protection Authority affirms its continued commitment to monitoring the status of goods in the markets and taking the necessary measures to ensure consumer safety, and calls upon all members of the public to report any observations through its official channels, in order to enhance community partnership and market safety, and in alignment with the objectives of Oman Vision 2040.
