The automatic adjuster within the hand brake may not work properly causing the hand brake lever to travel outside the recommended range.
Risk: If the vehicle travels outside the recommended range, the vehicle may roll away and a crash may occur.
Fix: Dealers will replace the existing automatic adjustment hand brake lever system on the affected vehicles with a manual hand brake lever system. The recall began on january 14, 2005. Owners should contact jaguar at 1-800-452-4827.
