Vehicles Affected: Approximately 5,000 model-year 2013-15 Jaguar XF luxury sedans manufactured between May 22, 2013, and June 15, 2015, and equipped with a 2.0-liter GTDi engine
The Problem: Insufficient clearance between the underfloor fuel delivery lines and the under-shield and body may allow the fuel lines to chafe, possibly resulting in a fuel leak, which in the presence of an ignition source increases the risk of a fire.
The Fix: Dealers will inspect the fuel line for abrasions and replace the line as necessary, and install additional clips, for free.
