Safety recall campaign statement: Seat belt assembly replacement for certain 2017 model year Jaguar vehicles
In coordination with the Ministry of Economy - Consumer Protection Department and in line with its commitment to conduct an on-going review of all products in the UAE to provide the consumer with the required protection, Al Tayer Motors, the local importer - dealer of Jaguar vehicles in the UAE, and Premier Motors the official dealer for Jaguar vehicles in Abu Dhabi, announce a safety recall campaign for certain 2017 model year (MY) Jaguar vehicles, manufactured in the UK, for seat belt assembly replacement
A concern has been identified with a small number of 2017 MY Jaguar XE and F-Type vehicles. Investigations have identified that the Autoliv Al2 initiator, used in the manufacture of Autoliv seat belt pre-tensioners supplied to Jaguar Land Rover Limited have been incorrectly manufactured and may not properly function leading to no activation of a pre-tensioner.
In the event of a crash of sufficient severity, the front seatbelt pre-tensioner may fail to operate when required. Failure to operate can lead to increased injuries to the front seat occupants
Affected vehicles in the UAE include:
14 Jaguar F-TYPE vehicles in the VIN range SAJWA6AT4H8K41657 to SAJXJ6DL1 H M K46354 and,
30 Jaguar XE vehicles in the VIN range SAJAB4AN7HA960925 to SAJAB4AG8HL995575
In the interest of delivering the highest standards of Jaguar quality and customer care, Al Tayer Motors /Premier Motors will begin contacting the affected customers to inform them about this recall.
Owners are also notified to bring their cars to Al Tayer Motors / Premier Motors' service centres to inspect both front seat belt assemblies and replace it if necessary. The replacements will be done free of charge and every effort will be made to minimise any inconvenience caused during the short time required for the work to be carried out.
For further clarification, customers may contact the Al Tayer Motors / Premier Motors Customer Care Centre on 800 MOTORS (668677) from 8.00 am to 6.00 pm, Saturday to Thursday.
We regret any inconvenience this may cause and thank our customers for their patience and understanding.
