The fault could cause the airbag to tear when deployed, according to the recall notice.

Jaguar has recalled 636 examples of its 2020-2022 E-Pace, citing a potential fault with the airbag.

The affected vehicles are stamped 2020 to 2022 models, but may have been sold at a later date.

The recall notice, lodged with the Department of Infrastructure, says: “Due to a manufacturing defect, the passenger airbag may tear during deployment. This could cause hot gases to escape from the airbag at high speed and result in insufficient protection to the passenger.

“In the event of an accident, the airbag not deploying as intended could increase the risk of injury or death to vehicle occupants.”
