2014-2015 Jaguar F-Type Recall 19V326: Air Bag Sensor

Recall 19V326 covers 7,060 2014-2015 Jaguar F-Type vehicles for miswired seatbelt tension sensor harnesses. Repair is free at any franchised Jaguar dealer.

Jaguar is recalling 7,060 2014-2015 F-Type vehicles because a seatbelt harness connector was incorrectly wired during an earlier recall repair. The defect can cause the restraint system to misclassify the front passenger, allowing the passenger frontal air bag to deploy for a child in a crash; Jaguar dealers will repair it free of charge.

What's wrong?

The seatbelt harness connector in the 2014-2015 Jaguar F-Type links the seatbelt tension sensor to the occupant classification control module. That module is the part of the restraint system that helps decide whether the passenger seat is occupied by an adult or a child. The restraint control module uses that signal when it decides how the air bag system should respond in a crash.

On affected F-Type vehicles, a service part installed during an earlier recall repair can contain the same wiring defect as the original part. The connector can be wired incorrectly, so the seatbelt tension signal does not reach the occupant classification module the way the restraint system expects. With the wrong input, the restraint control module can misread who is in the passenger seat.

There is no warning sign before failure. An owner should not expect a light, sound, or seatbelt feel to confirm the connector wiring problem.

Who's affected?

The scope spans two model years and three listed component areas: the air bag system, seat belt, and wiring.

A matching year and model does not guarantee inclusion. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific car is included.

What's the safety risk?

In a crash that requires air bag deployment, the passenger system can classify the seat incorrectly and allow the passenger frontal air bag to deploy with a child in the front passenger seat. That increases the child's risk of injury. Until inspected, keep children out of the front passenger seat. Repair is free at any franchised Jaguar dealer.

What should I do?

  1. Check your VIN to confirm your 2014-2015 Jaguar F-Type is included in this recall.
  2. Contact a franchised Jaguar dealer to schedule the free seat belt assembly inspection and seatbelt tension sensor harness repair that fixes the occupant-classification wiring.
  3. Bring the recall notice if Jaguar mailed one. If not, reference recall number 19V326 when you call.
  4. Keep children out of the front passenger seat until the repair is complete.
  5. Call Jaguar customer service at 1-800-452-4827 with questions and reference Jaguar recall H208.

What happens at the repair

At the dealer, a Jaguar technician inspects the seat belt assembly and repairs the seatbelt tension sensor harness if the wiring or connector needs correction. The inspection, repair, parts, and labor are free under the recall. If you've already paid out of pocket for this seatbelt harness repair, Jaguar's standard reimbursement plan covers documented expenses. Bring the repair invoice and payment record to the service desk when you arrive.

Frequently asked questions

What is recall 19V326?

Recall 19V326 covers 7,060 2014-2015 Jaguar F-Type vehicles previously repaired under recall 14V-714. The seatbelt harness connector for the seatbelt tension sensor can be wired incorrectly, which affects how the restraint system classifies the front passenger.

What should I do if my 2014-2015 Jaguar F-Type is on this recall?

Check your VIN to confirm your specific F-Type is included in recall 19V326. If it is, contact a franchised Jaguar dealer and ask for recall H208. The dealer will inspect the seat belt assembly and repair the seatbelt tension sensor harness as needed for free.

Is the recall repair free?

Yes. Federal recall law requires the manufacturer to repair the defect at no cost. Jaguar dealers will inspect the seat belt assembly and repair the seatbelt tension sensor harness as needed, free of charge.

What is the safety risk in recall 19V326?

The risk is incorrect front-passenger classification during a crash. If the system classifies a child as an adult, the passenger frontal air bag can deploy when it should not, increasing the child's risk of injury.

What if I bought my Jaguar F-Type used?

The free recall repair still applies. Recall eligibility follows the VIN, not the owner. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific F-Type is included, then call a franchised Jaguar dealer with recall number 19V326 or Jaguar recall H208.
