2006 Jaguar XJ recall: windows, wipers & mirrors

⚠️ What's wrong

On certain sedans equipped with moonroofs, a reinforcement bar was incorrectly assembled so that the bar may contact the glass in the moonroof. When closing a door or upon severe road impact, it is possible that the moonroof glass may shatter.

💥 The risk

If the glass shatters, there is a risk of injury to the vehicle occupants.

🔧 The fix

Dealers will replace the moonroof free of charge. The recall began on march 27, 2006. 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.)
