Driver seat side airbag may not deploy correctly recall
Recall affects Jaguar XK
Reason for recall: It has been identified that on the subject vehicles the side airbags are not defined as passenger and driver but as left and right hand. This has resulted in all vehicles being configured as left hand drive and therefore the system believes the right hand front seat to be the passenger seat. This can result in the driver's side airbag failing to deploy when required due to the system believing that the driver's seat is unoccupied.
