Jaguar XF Recalled For Bolt And Fuel Leak Issues – Also Jaguar XJ Overseas

Jaguar Land Rover has issued a trio of recalls this week - two concerning its Jaguar XF range and the other targeting the XJ model.

The first recall concerns XF and XJ models fitted with Jaguar’s 2.0 litre GTDi turbo-diesel engine, specifically concerning a bolt securing the drive belt idler pulley.

The bolt may not be to specification, and may fail while driving.

Should this occur, the accessory drive belt will no longer run the vehicle’s air conditioning, alternator, or coolant pump. 

Driver’s will notice a warning light in the instrument cluster, which could be followed by a reduction in the car’s steering assistance.

Changes to the steering behaviour of the vehicle could pose a hazard to the vehicle’s occupant and other road users.

The recall process will see the vehicle’s idler pulley and bolt changed to the latest specification.
