    Defect

    It has been identified that the fuel delivery line/pipe may not have been installed to the correct specification. This could result in the incorrect tolerance between the fuel line/pipe and the vehicle under shield and the body. This can result in a chaffing condition and fuel leak. This will be highlighted to the driver by either a smell of fuel or pooling of fuel under the vehicle.

    Remedy

    Recall the affected vehicles to inspect the clearance between the under shield and the body and carry out remedial work as required which may only be the fitment of additional retaining clips or the replacement of any damaged fuel line/pipe.

  18. ENGINE MAY CUT OUT AND FAIL TO RESTART

    R/2016/037 · 24 Mar 2016

    24 Mar 2016

    Defect

    The under bonnet low pressure fuel feed hose may detach from the fuel filter. A fuel smell may be noticed due to fuel leaking into the engine bay and in the event of hose detachment the engine will cut out. Once the engine has cut out the brake vacuum reservoir will be depleted after 2-3 brake pedal depressions and the vehicle will lose brake power assistance however foundation brakes continue to operate. The engine cannot be re-started. Engine cut out with minimal warning could potentially cause a crash.

    Remedy

    Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and add a spring wire retention clip to the low pressure fuel feed hose joint.

  19. VEHICLE MAY CUT OUT

    R/2015/037 · 8 Apr 2015

    8 Apr 2015

    Defect

    A fault could cause the fuel tank fuel pump to stop working. This will cause fuel starvation to the engine and will result in the engine cutting out without warning.

    Remedy

    Fitting of an overlay wiring harness. The overlay wiring harness reconfigures the electrical distribution to the FPDM to utilize a relay to supply the fuel pump power feed. The relay is not affected by the in rush current drawn by the fuel pump and so ensures robust operation.

    Built 11 Sep 2012 – 8 Oct 2012

    ~16 vehicles affected

  20. RISK OF FIRE

    R/2014/145 · 27 Oct 2014

    27 Oct 2014

    Defect

    The positive cable fixing to the alternator may come loose and lead to an elevated risk of fire. Additionally there are concerns raised regarding the fixings for the engine mounted belt driven ancillaries. If the fixings fail power assistance to the steering can be lost and more input from the driver will be required to steer the vehicle.

    Remedy

    Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to inspect and torque the front ancillary fixings to the correct specification.

    4 Apr 2014

    Defect

    A concern has been identified where in the event of prolonged aggressive driving it is possible that the rear toe link will separate from the rear sub-frame. In this event vehicle stability will be compromised and degree of directional control minimised which increases the risk of an accident.

    Remedy

    Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and replace the nut and washer assembly on the rear toe link with components of revised design.

  22. FIRE MAY OCCUR

    R/2013/092 · 27 Aug 2013

    27 Aug 2013

    Defect

    It is possible that a leak can occur between the injector spill rail connection and the plastic fuel return pipe. This can cause leakage of fuel which can either pool on the engine cylinder head and then become deposited onto the road surface where it could cause a skid risk to other motorist or if the fuel comes into contact with extremely hot engine components an exhaust manifold for instance it is possible that an under bonnet fire could ensue.

    Remedy

    Recall all affected vehicles inspect the fuel spill rail/return pipe and if required replace the spill rail with a new modified rail.

  23. ENGINE MAY CUT OUT

    R/2013/090 · 6 Aug 2013

    6 Aug 2013

    Defect

    It has been established that the Charge Air Cooler (CAC) hoses and resonator pipe have not been assembled to the correct specification. It is therefore possible that under certain conditions the CAC hose can detach from the resonator. This could result in the engine cutting out and possible loss of vacuum assistance for the brake servo.

    Remedy

    Recall the affected vehicle and rectify the issue.

    R/2012/131 · 10 Dec 2012

    10 Dec 2012

    Defect

    Jaguar engineers identified a crack present in the fuel outlet flange on components returned from the market. If a crack is present customers are most likely to detect fuel odour when the vehicle is static from the outside of the vehicle. However in extreme circumstances there could be a pool of fuel underneath the rear of the vehicle which in the presence of an ignition source could lead to a fire.

    Remedy

    Replace the fuel outlet flange.

    R/2011/025 · 10 Jun 2011

    10 Jun 2011

    Defect

    The corrosion protection on certain power steering pipes may not be to specification. This could result in pin holes being formed which can leak power steering fluid. Should the power steering fluid contact hot surfaces there is a possibility that fire could occur.

    Remedy

    Recalled vehicles will have the affected power assisted steering fluid pipes replaced.
