Summary

Jaguar Land Rover North America, LLC "Jaguar" is recalling certain 2018 Jaguar E-Pace vehicles. The brackets that secure the front brake hoses may not have been installed properly, allowing the front brake hoses to contact the tires, possibly resulting in a brake fluid leak.

Consequence

A brake fluid leak can lengthen the distance needed to stop the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy

Jaguar will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the front brake hose brackets, replacing any that do not provide sufficient clearance, free of charge. The recall began on April 16, 2018. Owners may contact Jaguar customer service at 1-800-452-4827. Jaguar's number for this recall is H074.
