So I get these CarFax car care email reports on my 21 SVR and have really never paid any attention to them. Today I received one that says recall due now. I hadn’t received a notice from Jaguar so I was curious to see what was listed and it’s #H404 - improper taillight specification. Anyone know if this is a legit recall and what exactly the issue is?

thanks in advance for any info.

I got it too. perhaps the new taillight design failed some US regulations? following.

Same here on my 21 P400. Jaguar Ownership - VIN Recall Search| Jaguar USA doesn't show anything, but CarFax does.

Strange. Maybe they're giving us the animated ones! One can dream right?! Guess we'll have to wait and see if official comms comes from Jaguar.

interesting...

Is it just for SVR’s or is it for all 2021s?

There doesn’t seem to be much detail at this point @stbentoak. Noting turns up on Jaguar owner portal or inputting VIN in NHTSA. Guess it’s a waiting game on official comms from JLR unless another member has the details.

Seems this finally popped up on NHTSA. Guess JLR will be sending notice soon.

If your vehicle was going in for service in the next 2-3 weeks, do you think the dealer would review it based on this?

I would certainly bring it to their attention. The campaign is listed as H404.

I wonder if this is a hardware problem (lens design, manufacturing defect, or wiring issue) or software problem (coding for different worldwide region used in North American market by accident).

 

[Exhaust Note]

Wonder if this is US specific or going to be worldwide? One of the few things I really dislike about my 21 SVR is how bad the reverse lighting is. My wife's base model BMW 118i is as clear as day but I can't see a thing out the back of the Jag.

They make reference to "lamps", are they bulbs (LED or otherwise)? They didn't say lenses.

My rear lights look perfectly fine and the indicators work well also. But they've worked the way that that do since I got the car. I don't know if they are up to spec though for the US. So I'm wondering what are the range of cars that are actually affected. I guess we'll have to wait to see if I get a notice.

Good Morning Team Eiger!

That is the question. After many clicks, I finally found this: https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/2022/RCLRPT-22V525-8408.PDF .

Which does list the range/years of potentially affected VINs.

I am in there. Part supplied by a company in the Czech Republic, they make good stuff but anything can happen. It's a global world, to be redundant.

Looks like my particular F-Pace SVR is outside of that range. Not sure how the range covers 21 and 22 cars with mine being a 21 but I am above the end of the range best as I can tell. We
'll see if I get a recall letter or not. Thanks for searching and looking Bob!

Looks like I made the list. Time to see how far out the SE Wisconsin Jaguar dealership is booking appointments for recalls.

So if you have a 2021 model year or newer you most likely have the brighter UK spec tail lights which do not comply with US federal regulations. I really like the tail lights and don’t want them swapped out. That being said, can we refuse the recall and instruct the dealer not to replace them? There’s absolutely zero chance of getting pulled over for something like this.
