SUMMARY:
Jaguar is recalling certain model year 2010 XK and XF vehicles manufactured from June 27, 2009, through March 10, 2010. The Power
Assist Steering (PAS) pipes have been supplied with zincnickel plating that does not meet fully the corrosion protection requirements of
jaguar's engineering specification. After an extended period of time in service, corrosion of the PAS pipes will occur that may lead to
pinholing of the pipes.
CONSEQUENCE:
Pinholing of the PAS pipes could allow pressurized power steering fluid to leak into the underhood and engine bay area. A loss of
power steering fluid will result in a loss of power assist steering. Also, the fluid may ignite if it comes into contact with an ignition source
or a surface at sufficiently high enough temperature, causing a vehicle fire.
REMEDY:
Dealers will replace the power steering fluid pipes with parts manufactured to the required corrosion protection specification. This service
will be performed free of charge. The safety recall is expected to begin on or before April 11, 2011. Owners may contact Jaguar at
18004524827.
NOTES:
Jaguar safety recall No. J018. Owners may also contact The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's Vehicle Safety Hotline at
18883274236 (TTY 18004249153), or go to http://www.safercar.gov.
