104.114 αυτοκίνητα της Jaguar Land Rover ανακαλούνται με τα περισσότερα από αυτά να βρίσκονται στις Η.Π.Α. Τα 76.648 είναι Range Rover παραγωγής μεταξύ 15 Απριλίου 2005 και 4 Σεπτεμβρίου 2012, στα οποία τα σωληνάκια των μπροστά φρένων θα μπορούσε να σπάσουν, προκαλώντας διαρροή υγρού φρένων, μειώνοντας την ικανότητα του φρεναρίσματος του αυτοκινήτου.
Για ένα παρόμοιο πρόβλημα, η Land Rover ανακαλεί 24.679 Range Rover και Range Rover Sport παραγωγής 16 Αυγούστου 2012 – 8 Ιανουαρίου 2014, στα οποία ίσως δεν έχει τοποθετήσει σωστά το σωληνάκι κενού του συστήματος των φρένων, που ίσως θα οδηγούσε το σύστημα πέδησης να μην λειτουργούν αποδοτικά.
Τέλος η Jaguar ανακαλεί 4.787 Jaguar XK παραγωγής 4 Μαρτίου 2011 και 20 Μαρτίου 2014, στα οποία τα φώτα στάθμευσης ίσως απενεργοποιηθούν μετά από περίπου 5 λεπτά, παραβαίνοντας έτσι τα ομοσπονδιακά πρότυπα.
