NHTSA recently reported a windshield problem concerning the XJ sedan units manufactured between July 2008,2009 and November 3, 2010, a serious problem that may leave the driver completely blind in the middle of a pouring rain.

 

As seen on the Internet:

Recall Alert: 2010-2011 Jaguar XJ

Jaguar is recalling 6,475 2010-11 XJ sedans over potentially defective windshield wipers, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.


In the affected vehicles, the windshield wipers were not properly installed or synchronized. In some vehicles, the wipers could lose synchronization and eventually clash against each other, resulting in one or more wipers detaching from the vehicle.


Jaguar will begin notifying owners Dec. 13. Dealers will inspect the vehicle and repair the securing nut to correct the torque specification if necessary.

 

Why, have they forgot to attach the windscreen wipers? LOL

 

Stop teasing us Lukeluk, what is the windshield problem?
Leedsman.

 

Yeah, all we are doing is re-torquing the wiper arm assemblies.

 

He didn't tell you? It was the opaque bullet proof glass the factory installed so that their wives could
not shoot them for buying a NEW Jag instead of an
OLD CLASSIC.....ha ha....(maybe an old XJS..??)
:i con_dance-tap:

 

I heard about this. Hope it dosent rain between now and when they fix the wiper blades.
