The 2004 Jaguar XJ has two recalls, the more serious being rear brake pipes that can corrode and leak fluid, extending stopping distances and raising the risk of a crash.
The second recall involves the passenger airbag trim panel, which has a poorly finished opening edge that can tear the airbag as it deploys, potentially sending fragments into the cabin and increasing the risk of injury to the front passenger.
