Jaguar XJ: Brakes
Affects Jaguar XJ · 2014–2015 — about 199 vehicles.
The hazard
On certain vehicles, underbody brake pipe unions may not have been tightened to specification. This could cause a loss of brake fluid, illuminating the brake warning lamp and causing the instrument cluster to display the warning message "Fluid Level Low". If operated in this condition, brake system function could be affected, potentially increasing stopping distances or causing a loss of brake system function. This could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Loss of brake fluid could also affect brake pressure switch function, which could cause the vehicle to fail to start. Correction: Dealers will inspect, and if necessary, top up the brake fluid and tighten the joints to the correct torque specification.
