Air bags: sensor: occupant classification
- What is wrong
- Jaguar Land Rover North America, LLC (Jaguar Land Rover) is recalling certain 2014-2015 Jaguar F-TYPE vehicles previously remedied under Recall 14V‑714. The seatbelt harness connector which connects the Seatbelt Tension Sensor (STS) to the Occupant Classification Sensor Control Module (OCSCM) may not have been correctly wired. As a result, the Restraint Control Module (RCM) may not accurately detect if an adult or child is occupying the seat.
- Risk
- In the event of a crash necessitating air bag deployment, an incorrect classification may result in the passenger frontal air bag deploying even if there is a child in the front passenger seat, increasing their risk of injury.
- Remedy
- Jaguar will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the seat belt assembly and repair the seatbelt tension sensor harness as necessary, free of charge. The recall began June 3, 2019. Owners may contact Jaguar customer service at 1‑800‑452‑4827. Jaguar's number for this recall is H208.

Electrical system: wiring
- What is wrong
- Jaguar Land Rover North America LLC (Jaguar) is recalling certain model year 2014-2015 F-TYPE vehicles manufactured August 31, 2012, to October 22, 2014. In the affected vehicles the seatbelt harness connector which connects the Seatbelt Tension Sensor (STS) to the Occupant Classification Sensor Control Module (OCSCM) may not have been correctly wired. The OCSCM senses whether there is an occupant in the front passenger seating position, and the STS senses whether tension on the seatbelt indicates a child restraint is being used in the front passenger seating position. Both sensors provide information to the restraint control module (RCM) which informs whether the front passenger airbag should be activated, depending on whether the sensors detect the seat is occupied and/or that it is occupied by an adult passenger.
- Risk
- Should the STS not have been wired correctly, the front passenger air bag may not be suppressed, and may remain activated, even when a child restraint is placed in the front passenger seat or a small statured adult occupies that seat. In the event of a crash necessitating deployment of the front passenger air bag, a child or small stature occupant may be at an increased risk of injury.
- Remedy
- Jaguar will notify owners, and dealers will correct the harness connector wire configuration, free of charge. The recall began on December 3, 2014. Owners may contact Jaguar customer service at 1‑800‑452‑4827. Jaguar's number for this recall is J047.

What 2014 Jaguar F-Type owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
Found recall concerning passenger air bag on the federal safety agency website. Dealer says there is no fix for it yet, and it will take months for them to come up with a fix. So the car just sits in my garage while I keep making loan payments, it's unsafe to drive and dealer won't do anything. Last year also had problems with airbag, in that case - the driver's one. Delaer fixed it, just over a year since then the airbag light on dash came on again, dealer refuses to fix, says they only guarantee repairs for 12 months and wants to charge for same parts and labor again. So pretty much both airbags in the car are bad and dealer refuses to take responsibility. Tpms sensor malfunction warning comes on and off all the time - this issue was also supposedly fixed by dealer, they say they can't track the problem and can do nothing more to help. I want a reliable and safe car to drive, clearly this can't be said about jaguars, moreover - dealer is very incompetent, they don't know their own cars and incapable of fixing these cars' constantly reoccurring problems. I don't know what to do!
