I was notified via letter dated Feb 28, 2018 by Jaguar that my Jaguar Xf was included in safety recall J072 takata passenger airbags. The letter states: "due to prolonged exposure to combined high heat and humidity, the front passenger airbag module inflator housing may explode and deploy abnormally in the event of a crash necessitating deployment of the front passenger airbag. In such event, a front passenger airbag module inflator housing explosion could result in sharp metal fragments striking the passenger or other occupants, resulting in serious injury or death." Then they proceed to say, "Jaguar is carrying out a recall of certain Jaguar Xf vehicles within the model years mentioned above. However, we currently do not have stock of the necessary components to repair your vehicle. Parts are expected to be available by March 2019." So, Jaguar has told to continue to use the vehicle as we intended when we purchased it, while endangering our lives because of the issue. I can not sell the car because of a lack of interest in the vehicle and a steeply declining value. Does this qualify under the lemon law or what remedies do I have?
