Plain-English summary

Jaguar Land Rover North America, LLC is recalling certain 2021, 2022, and 2023 Jaguar E-Pace vehicles due to a defect in the passenger air bag module. The passenger air bag may tear during deployment.

A torn air bag may not adequately protect an occupant in a crash, increasing the risk of injury. Additionally, a torn air bag may allow the escape of hot gases, which can burn an occupant.

Dealers will replace the passenger air bag module free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on August 30, 2024. Owners may contact Jaguar customer service at 1-800-452-4827, or call the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or visit www.nhtsa.gov for more information.
