The 2017 Jaguar XJ has 3 recalls, the most serious involving the airbag system: the restraint control module software can cause the front airbags to deploy incorrectly in a frontal crash, and a separate defect can prevent the front passenger airbag from deploying at all, leaving occupants without protection when they need it most.
The third recall involves the instrument cluster, which can go blank without warning, leaving the driver without speed, fuel, and other critical readouts while driving.
