✎ GovInfoNow plain-language explainer

Jaguar Land Rover North America is recalling certain 2020 Jaguar F-Type vehicles because the startup diagnostic check for the Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) may not complete in time. This failure can disable both the ABS and the Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) system during that drive cycle, increasing the risk of a crash. Dealers will update the vehicle software to fix the issue at no cost to owners. Read more at govinfonow.com/recall/79720-jaguar-2020-f-type-brake-system-recall-risk-of-crash.
