Plain-English summary

Jaguar Land Rover North America, LLC is recalling certain model year 2013-2014 Jaguar XF (XFR-S) vehicles manufactured between July 2, 2013, and April 11, 2014. The recall addresses a defect in the Power Assist Steering (PAS) system where a component within the hose may collapse. This collapse can restrict fluid flow, resulting in a loss of power steering.

The reduction of power steering assist increases the physical effort required to steer the vehicle, which NHTSA notes increases the risk of a crash. No specific injuries or fatalities are reported in the source text.

Dealers will install an improved PAS hose free of charge. The recall began on August 6, 2014. Owners may contact Jaguar customer service at 1-800-452-4827 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
