The defect
Jaguar Land Rover North America, LLC (Jaguar) is recalling certain 2010-2011 XJ vehicles. If, while servicing the vehicle, the vehicle does not successfully receive an update to the Restraint Control Module (RCM) software, the default air bag calibration settings may be incorrect.
The risk
In the event of a crash, the incorrect calibration may not activate the air bag deployment as intended, increasing the risk of injury.
