Driver’s Side Access Panel Uneven Gap

MODEL

New Range Rover

DETAIL

We have received reports which have identified a gap condition between the drivers access panel and the fascia end moulding. An engineering change has been implemented to modify the mounting bosses on the two outboard fixing points of the access panel.

Note: The part numbers will not change as the modification can be carried out on current parts, therefore it should not be necessary to replace any of the affected access panels.

Modified access panels will not be available for production at present, however all current panels can be modified to correct uneven gap .

ACTION REQUIRED

At Pre-delivery Inspection or upon customer complaint of a gap between the drivers access panel and the fascia end moulding, follow the process detailed below.
