My vehicle is currently subject to the federal safety agency recall # 26V‑248. Then I started getting a check engine light with codes P0A1F-96 and P0A7B which are directly related to the recall. I took the vehicle to a Land Rover dealership and was told they are unrelated. My vehicle has only 46,000 miles on it and I was told I needed a new MHEV lithium Ion battery and that I would have to pay for it out of pocket. These batteries should last well over 100K miles if not for the direct problems caused by the recall. Having to pay for this out of pocket rather than the dealership covering it seems completely unfair.
