Jaguar XF: Electrical
Affects Jaguar XF · 2009 — about 182 vehicles.
The hazard
On certain vehicles, the instrument cluster speaker wires may fracture as a consequence of an overly aggressive turn signal sound wave form, the volume of which is vehicle speed dependant. At higher speeds the wave form has an amplitude that aggravates the condition where speaker wires could fail. In the event of speaker failure, audible notifications (turn signal, seat belt warning, "lights on" warning, driver's door open, etc.) will cease to function. The loss of audible warnings increases the risk of getting involved in a crash, causing personal injuries or property damages. Correction: Dealers will download the latest software into the instrument cluster and test the directional indicators for an audible notification.
