Jaguar Xj: The Parking Function Of The Automatic Transmission May Not Operate Correctly
Recall Summary Jaguar is recalling 218 XJ and S-Type vehicles because a defective component in the automatic transmission's parking brake system may prevent the parking function from fully engaging, even though the dashboard shows park is selected. If the parking brake is not applied, the vehicle could roll away while the ignition key is in the vehicle. The fix involves replacing the faulty component with a properly manufactured one.
