Details

What's wrong: The affected vehicles have a front passenger air bag inflator initiator that may fail to ignite during a crash, preventing the air bag from deploying.

Why it matters: In the event of a crash of sufficient severity, the front passenger air bag may not deploy as required, increasing the risk of injury.

The fix: Jaguar will notify owners, and dealers will replace the front passenger air bag, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin February 20, 2017.
