What's wrong?
The left-hand inner sill panel on the 2017 Jaguar Xf is part of the lower body structure near the door opening and floor. It helps the side of the body hold its shape, and the underfloor fuel lines run close to this area. Those lines carry fuel from the tank toward the engine.
On included Xf vehicles, the sill panel was cracked during manufacturing. Friction between a press machine die and the panel material scored the surface, and the crack became visible after the body went through paint-shop heating and cooling. In a left-side crash, the cracked panel can leave the nearby fuel lines vulnerable to rupture, which can cause a fuel leak.
There is no warning sign before failure. An owner is not expected to see a dashboard light, sound, smell, or driving change from the cracked sill panel before a crash exposes the problem.

What happens at the repair

If cracks are found, Jaguar repurchases the vehicle and supplies a new vehicle at no charge under the recall. The inspection and any recall action are free, and the recall remedy is available now through an approved Jaguar dealer.
