Driving a luxury sedan is so much fun, especially when using the famous British-made product with a soft suspension with silence excellent cabin space.
But all the comforts that you get will turn 180 degrees because the problem is practically small, wipers.
Can not imagine what would happen if, while in conditions of heavy rain suddenly windshield wipers can not function properly.
That is what makes the Jaguar finally did a recall on the 6475 XJ type units produced between July 28, 2009 and 3 November 2010.
As reported by the autoevolution, Friday (26/11) of all car models that have drawn the specifications for the U.S. market.
According to a press release by the American National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), the front wiper arm swing was not strong enough.
Security Agency also said on its website, that during the operation, a kind of nut that secures the wiper can be damaged, resulting in loss of synchronization that can cause the wiper arm collision.
The worst possibility, the wiper can be separated from the car. It will be more severe if the condition of heavy rain that could affect the driver's view.
Of course if that happens, potentially causing a fatal accident for the driver. To avoid this, a British company eventually issued a recall that will begin on December 13, 2010.
Jaguar says that the dealer will check whether the wiper arm has been installed correctly and the nut securing the arm will be strengthened.
As with the recall program in general, these improvements will be done for free.
