Default Jaguar Recall in March 2015

Looks like there is a brake problem and/or a sidelight (?) recall for the XK??? Not exactly sure. But be aware and I suppose we should contact dealerships.

"Almost 5000 Jaguar XK cars from 2012 to 2015 will also be recalled over fears their sidelights may switch off after five minutes. Recals will begin on 13 March."

Is the brake problem only for Range/Land Rovers?

My understanding is that the XK issue deals only with the sidelights and that the brake issue is limited to Land Rovers.

Do we assume this includes XKR and XKR-S?
