JAGUAR XK - Coupe and Convertible Recall

Driver seat side airbag may not deploy correctly

JAGUAR XK - Coupe and Convertible recall Jul 2008JAGUAR announced a problem with the XK - Coupe and Convertible affecting a total of 4,815 vehicles.

It has been identified that on the subject vehicles, the side airbags are not defined as passenger and driver, but as left and right hand. This has resulted in all vehicles being configured as left hand drive, and therefore the system "believes" the right hand front seat to be the passenger seat. This can result in the driver's side airbag failing to deploy when required, due to the system believing that the driver's seat is unoccupied. Vehicles built from 8/30/2006 to 4/24/2008 are at risk.

Recalled vehicles will have the control module on all right hand drive vehicles re-configured.
