Jaguar Recall 06V-018: Visibility – sun/moon roof assembly

Affected: 2006 Jaguar XJ. Filed with NHTSA on January 25, 2006, covering about 2,675 vehicles.

The problem

The risk

If the glass shatters, there is a risk of injury to the vehicle occupants.

Dealers will replace the moonroof free of charge. The recall began on March 27, 2006. Owners May contact Jaguar at 1-800-452-4827.
