The Consumer Protection Authority, in cooperation with Mohsin Haider Darwish Vehicles LLC, has launched a recall campaign for 29 Land Rover Defender vehicles, with the campaign commencing on 23 April 2026.
This campaign comes due to a potential defect in certain vehicles, whereby the lower seat belt anchorage bracket for the third-row seat may contain a weld stud that does not meet the strength standards approved by the International Organization for Standardization, as a result of contamination in materials supplied by the vendor.
The corrective action to be undertaken will consist of modifying the third-row seat belt anchorage bracket in order to remedy the defect and enhance the level of safety for users.
The Authority confirms that such recalls come within the framework of its continuous efforts to monitor products circulated in the markets and to ensure suppliers’ compliance with quality and safety standards, calling upon consumers to verify whether their vehicles are included in the campaign and to contact the authorized dealer to undertake the necessary action for their safety.
