2013 Jaguar Xf Recall 13V341: Loose CAC Hose Clamp

Recall 13V341 affects 940 2013 Jaguar Xf vehicles for a loose CAC hose clamp. Repair is free at any franchised Jaguar dealer.

Jaguar is recalling 940 2013 Xf vehicles under recall 13V341 because the charge air cooler hose clamp can sit loose or out of position, letting the hose detach. If that happens, the engine can stall and steering or brake assistance can be lost; the Jaguar dealer repair will be free once available.

What's wrong?

The charge air cooler hose on the 2013 Jaguar Xf 2.0L GTDi carries compressed air from the turbocharger system toward the engine. The charge air cooler lowers the temperature of that air before it enters the engine. A hose clamp holds the hose tight so pressure stays inside the intake path.

On affected Xf vehicles, the clamp for the charge air cooler hose is out of position and loose. With the clamp not seated correctly, the hose can work free from its connection and detach. When that happens, pressurized intake air escapes instead of reaching the engine, so the engine no longer receives the airflow it was calibrated to use.

There is no warning sign before failure. The recall filing does not list an owner-noticeable symptom before the hose detaches, so the first sign is the hose coming loose or a change in how the engine runs after separation.

Not every 2013 Jaguar Xf sedan is on the list. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific sedan is included.

What's the safety risk?

A detached CAC hose can stall the engine, which increases crash risk. If the engine stalls, steering assist and brake assist can also be lost, making the vehicle harder to control and stop. Schedule the inspection soon. Repair will be free at any franchised Jaguar dealer once available.

What should I do?

  1. Check your VIN to confirm your 2013 Jaguar Xf is included in this recall.
  2. Watch for Jaguar's owner notice, then contact a franchised Jaguar dealer about the free CAC hose clamp inspection.
  3. Ask the dealer to confirm the clamp is correctly positioned and tight so the charge-air-cooler hose stays secured.
  4. Bring the recall notice if Jaguar mailed one. If not, reference recall number 13V341 when you call.
  5. Limit driving until the inspection is complete, and stop safely if the engine stalls or steering or brake assist changes.

What happens at the repair

The recall remedy calls for a Jaguar technician to inspect the Charge Air Cooler hose clamp and confirm that the clamp is in the correct position and tight. If the clamp is loose or out of position, the dealer corrects it so the hose stays attached. The filing does not list a current remedy status, so do not assume scheduling is open from this section alone. The dealer repair will be free once available, with parts and labor covered under the recall.
