Jaguar Land Rover has issued two recalls, one affecting the 2014 Range Rover and another focused on the 2013 and 2014 Jaguar XF.
More than 5,000 Range Rover SUVs built from May 7 through October 10, 2013 will be serviced to correct a defect that prevents the turning signals from flashing at a double rate if one of the lights is malfunctioning.
The issue violates federal safety regulations that require the faster flashing to serve as a notification to drivers. Without the typical double-rate flashing, drivers could remain unaware of a malfunction and continue driving without realizing that other drivers do not see a signal.
The Jaguar XF sedan has been found to suffer from a different issue, a defective hose clamp for the charge air cooler (CAC) hose. If the hose detaches, the engine may stall and increase the risk of a crash.
Both recalls are expected to begin in May.
