Plain-English summary

Jaguar Land Rover North America, LLC is recalling certain 2018 Jaguar F-TYPE vehicles equipped with Highline headlamps. The recall addresses a defect where, if a front turn signal indicator stops working, the visual and audible turn signal reminders do not flash or chime faster as required. This failure means the vehicles do not comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 108.

The defect poses a safety risk because the driver may not be aware that a turn signal is not working. If the turn signal is inoperative, other drivers will not be aware that the vehicle is turning, which increases the risk of a crash.

Jaguar will notify owners, and dealers will update the vehicle's software free of charge to correct the issue. The recall began on July 12, 2017. Owners may contact Jaguar customer service at 1-800-452-4827 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
