Missing spot welds may weaken the structural strength of the rear rail assembly.","consequence":"The weakened rear rail assembly may allow the rear bumper beam to detach when the vehicle is being towed or the tow-bar assembly to detach when towing a trailer.  Either of these scenarios can increase the risk of a crash.","remedy":"Jaguar will notify owners, and dealers will replace the rear rail assembly, free of charge.  Owner letters were mailed May 7, 2021. Owners may contact Jaguar customer service at 1-800-452-4827.
