Jaguar F Pace recalls
| Certain vehicles fitted with 2.0L Diesel Engines may emit excessive levels of CO2 and may not conform with the certified condition. CO2 and other greenhouse gases contribute to global warming pollution. A reduction in CO2 emissions contributes to the EU greenhouse gas reduction targets helping protect the environment. The product does not comply with the Regulation setting emission performance standards for new passenger cars and the Regulation on type-approval of motor vehicles with respect to emissions from light passenger and commercial vehicles. The Jaguar F-Pace models affected by this recall were produced between 9. 3. 2015 – 5. 5. 2018. Source: Alert A11/0012/19 |
| The crankshaft pulley retaining bolt may fracture. As a consequence, the crankshaft nose could break leading to engine power loss and the potential for engine failure. Furthermore, the loose pulley could damage under bonnet components or puncture the bonnet and become a hazard to pedestrians or other road users. The Jaguar F-Pace models affected by this recall were produced between 12. 10. 2018 – 11. 12. 2018. Source: Alert A12/0192/19 |
| The brazing of the fuel rail end caps may not properly seal the fuel rail ends. Over time, this can lead to a liquid fuel leak into the engine bay. The recall affects vehicles manufactured between 01/09/2016 and 17/08/2017 with 2.0L petrol engine. Source: Alert A12/0310/18 |
| The TFT Instrument Cluster (digital speedometer) screen can go blank and reset intermittently. This may distract the driver and increase the risk of an accident. The recall affects vehicles manufactured between 1. 9. 2016 – 17. 8. 2017. Source: Alert A12/1651/17 |
| The fuel return hose may leak. As a consequence fuel puddles may appear underneath the vehicle or fuel may leak onto the road surface, which can present a skid hazard. The recall concerns vehicles with 2 litre diesel engine manufactured between 1. 11. 2016 – 6. 4. 2017. Source: Alert A12/0624/17 |
| The routing of the starter motor cable may be incorrect, causing cable chafing, arcing and short circuit. This may result in the vehicle stalling, melting of the starter motor cable sheathing and surrounding parts and in extreme circumstances an under-bonnet fire. The recall concerns vehicles which have been produced between 03/03/2016 and 15/06/2016. Source: Alert A12/0864/16 |
