Details

What's wrong: Jaguar Land Rover north america, LLC. (Land Rover) is recalling certain 2019-2020 Jaguar F-pace vehicles. The auto high beam (ahb) system does not indicate through the instrument cluster when the high beams are illuminated automatically. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (fmvss) number 108, "lamps, reflective devices, and associated equipment."

Why it matters: The driver may be unaware that the high beams are illuminated, reducing visibility for oncoming traffic, and increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: Jaguar will notify owners, and dealers will update the vehicle software, free of charge. The recall began April 2, 2021.
