There will be no charge to owners for this action.
OWNER NOTIFICATION

ACTION TO BE TAKEN

Retailers are required to HOLD affected new vehicles that are within your control and refrain from releasing the vehicles for new vehicle sale pending completion of the rework action. Jaguar Land Rover
North America recommends that affected sales demonstrator and loaner vehicles are repaired before use and that used vehicles are repaired before sale.
Sold vehicles will be subject to the standard Recall notification and Recall bulletin process detailing the action required for vehicles in the hands of owners. Affected vehicles already in the hands of customers should be updated at the next available opportunity.
