2006 Jaguar XK recall: speed control
⚠️ What's wrong
On certain passenger vehicles, the accelerator pedal arms were incorrectly assembled by the supplier. The clearance between the accelerator pedal and the brake pedal may be reduced. This condition CAN increase the risk of both pedals being operated at the same time by the driver.
💥 The risk
The accelerator pedal could be held down by the pedal stop assembly increasing the risk of a crash.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will inspect the pedal assembly and replace the accelerator pedal free of charge. The recall began on august 11, 2005. Owners may 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.)
