Jaguar Recalls XK Models for Incorrect Spare Tire Placard Information

Jaguar is recalling 2013-2015 XK models because the spare tire placard lists 'none' for inflation pressure, which may lead to improper inflation and tire failure.

What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a risk-of-harm product where tire failure could increase the risk of a crash, but no injuries or crashes have been reported in the source text.

Plain-English summary

Jaguar Land Rover North America, LLC is recalling certain model year 2013-2015 XK, XKR, and XKR-S vehicles equipped with a 5.0L engine. These vehicles were manufactured between August 24, 2012, and June 10, 2014. The recall involves 144 vehicles.

The tire placard on these vehicles contains incorrect information for the spare tire, stating "none" for the inflation pressure. This non-compliance with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 110 means the recommended pressure is not provided. If the spare tire is not properly inflated, it may fail, increasing the risk of a crash.

Jaguar will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the vehicles and attach a corrected tire placard label stating the correct tire size and pressure free of charge. The recall began on August 29, 2014. Owners may contact Jaguar customer service at 1-800-452-4827 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
