NHTSA recall 15V038000
Exterior Lighting · Jaguar Cars, Ltd.
Details
What's wrong: In the affected vehicles, the front side lamps (parking lamps) may turn off after approximately 5 minutes. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (fmvss) no. 108, "lamps, reflective devices, and associated equipment."
Why it matters: If the parking lamps turn off, the vehicle will have reduced conspicuity, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix: Jaguar will notify owners, and dealers will update software that controls the front side lamps, free of charge. The recall began March 5, 2015.
