Jaguar Xj: Passenger Airbag May Not Deploy
Jaguar is recalling 15 XJ vehicles because the passenger airbag may not deploy in a collision due to an incorrect mix ratio in the airbag initiator. This increases the risk of injury to passengers in a crash. Jaguar will replace the airbag with a new component.
