Defect SummaryVehicle description: sport utility vehicles equipped with active cornering enhancement (ace). the high-pressure hydraulic pipe that runs from the ace pump to the ace valve block could fracture at its union with the pump.
Consequence SummaryThis will result in a loss of hydraulic fluid. a low fluid level can subsequently result in system pump failure which will throw off the auxiliary drive belt, resulting in a loss of engine auxiliary functions (power steering assist, water pump, alternator, and air conditioning). in extreme circumstances, there is a possibility that the hydraulic fluid could ignite, resulting in an engine compartment fire.
Corrective SummaryDealers will install new hydraulic tubing.

 Belt broke leaving me stranded, had it replaced then 2 weeks later the new belt broke. had it replaced and again within a couple of weeks it broke again. ordered a new belt from land rover and asked a local mechanic to install it (because i live an hour away from land rover). the mechanic found that one of the pulley was not working corretly so he called land rover and was informed it was a recall. car was at land rover for 6 days before repairs complete. *ak
