Plain-English summary

Jaguar Land Rover North America, LLC is recalling certain model year 2013 Jaguar XF 2.0L GTDi vehicles manufactured between July 2012 and May 2013. The recall involves 940 vehicles where the hose clamp for the Charge Air Cooler (CAC) hose may be out of position and loose, allowing the hose to detach.
