Stranded on the Freeway! Think its Transfer Case

so I was driving the x5 on the freeway when the RPM increased suddenly. I accelerated and noticed it was not moving any faster. As I slow I hear a grinding noise toward the back of the vehicle. sounds like the splines on the transfer case. Its a 2001 4.4 X5. Want to know the funniest thing. My 2004 Range Rover HSE had the same thing happen twice and is currently in the shop for a replacement of the transfer case. Go figure! Anyhow, I had received a letter from Land Rover stating that they found a issue while doing quality control and that the transfer cases were being covered under quality control (can we say Recall!). Since they are essentially the same, does anyone know if there is a recall for the X5s on the transfer case or drive shafts?
Thanks, (just got the X5 back last week for an alt replacement )
