CONDITION SUMMARY:

A non-compliance issue has been identified with the Certification I Compliance Label fitted to certain US and Canadian 2012 model year Jaguar XFR vehicles. A number of vehicles have been manufactured with the Certification I Compliance Label's Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) numerical value being a Kilograms value and not Pounds for US vehicles; and a Pounds value instead of Kilograms value for Canadian vehicles. Where a vehicle to this condition is identified, vehicles do not comply with the legislative requirements for the Certification I Compliance Label.

Retailers are required to update all affected vehicles within their control and withhold them from retail delivery pending completion of the rework actions detailed in this bulletin. Sold vehicles will be subject to the standard Recall process detailing the action required for vehicles in the hands of owners. At the time of customer appointment, ensure that all outstanding service campaigns for each individual vehicle are identified and allocate sufficient time and resources to complete all campaigns. Refer to the Repair Procedure outlined below.

PARTS:

Retailers will receive VIN-specific labels to the attention of the Parts Manager for each affected vehicle directly from the UK. Labels should be held in a secure location until used to perform this recall. Labels have been distributed based on records of vehicle wholesale. If due to subsequent retailer trades affected vehicles have moved location, retailers are kindly requested to mail the relevant label to the retailer who purchased the affected vehicle.

TOOLS:

No special tools required
