What was wrong

Defect

Jaguar Land Rover is recalling certain model year 2013 XF vehicles manufactured October 3, 2012, through October 12, 2012 and equipped with a gasoline engine. The electronic modules which control the fuel pump may shut down causing the fuel pump to stop pumping fuel. The resulting fuel starvation will cause the engine to stall.

Risk

An engine stall without warning while driving may lead to a loss of motive power, a loss of power-assisted braking and a loss of power-assisted steering. Each of these conditions may increase the risk of a vehicle crash.

Manufacturer remedy

Jaguar Land Rover will notify owners, and dealers will install an additional wiring harness to the in-tank fuel pump, free of charge. The recall began on January 24, 2013. Owners may contact Jaguar Land Rover at 1-800-452-4827.
