Jaguar Land Rover North America, LLC — AIR BAGS

Is my product affected?

2015 JAGUAR XJ

  • Brand JAGUAR

Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.

What happened

Jaguar Land Rover North America, LLC is recalling certain 2015 Jaguar XJ vehicles manufactured between July 2, 2014, and December 4, 2014. The owner's manual contains an incorrect description of how the Occupant Sensor System operates, which does not match the actual Air Bag Status Indicator Lamp in the vehicle. This discrepancy means the vehicles do not comply with federal safety standards for occupant crash protection, and owners may not fully understand how the air bag system functions, potentially increasing injury risk in a crash.

Jaguar will notify affected owners and supply a supplement to the owner's handbook at no charge. The recall began on March 2, 2015. Owners of affected vehicles should contact Jaguar customer service at 1-800-452-4827 and reference recall number J050.
