2004 Jaguar XJ recall: airbag

⚠️ What's wrong

On certain passenger vehicles, the passenger air bag trim components have a poor aperture edge.

💥 The risk

Should the air bag deploy, it could be cut, causing it to not inflate properly, which increases the risk of injury to the occupant in a crash.

🔧 The fix

Dealers will inspect the passenger air bag aperture and, where necessary, remove any sharp, serrated edges. The recall began on may 14, 2004. Owners should contact jaguar at 1-800-452-4827.

Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
