The 2015 Jaguar XJ has 4 recalls, the most serious being a brake fluid leak at line junctions under the vehicle that reduces stopping power and increases the risk of a crash.
The airbag system also has two concerns. In certain vehicles, the airbag control module software can cause the front airbags to deploy incorrectly in a frontal crash, reducing their ability to protect occupants. Two separate documentation recalls affect this model as well: the owner's manual incorrectly describes both how the passenger seat occupant sensor works and how the airbag status warning lamp operates, which could leave owners with a misunderstanding of how these safety systems behave.
