Jaguar Land Rover Australia is recalling 14 examples of the Jaguar F-Type, F-Pace, XE and XF due to a manufacturing defect that may cause the seatbelt pre-tensioner to not work properly.
This recall affects F-Type, F-Pace, XE and XF models produced in 2022.
“Due to a manufacturing defect, a damaged front seat belt pre-tensioner tube may have been installed on the seat belt retractor,” said the company in its recall notice.
“As a result the seat belt pre-tensioner may not operate as intended.”
