THIS IS A SIMILAR AIRBAG SAFETY ISSUE AS OCCURRED IN A PRIOR RECALL ON LAND ROVER (RECALL #P045). THE WIRING THAT CONNECTS THE CLOCK SPRING ROTARY COUPLER TO THE DRIVER'S AIR BAG MODULE FRACTURES AS A RESULT OF RELATIVE MOTION BETWEEN THE ROTARY COUPLER AND THE STEERING WHEEL HUB. THE RELATIVE MOTION OF THE STEERING WHEEL CREATED INTERNAL FRICTION WITHIN THE ROTARY COUPLER ASSEMBLY AND/OR FRICTION CAUSED BY CONTACT OF THE STEERING COLUMN COWL AGAINST THE ROTARY COUPLER. THE CABLING FOR THE ROTARY COUPLER HAS FRACTURED AND THE AIRBAG LIGHT HAS COME ON. JAGUAR DEALER HAS INDICATED THE FRACTURE WILL INTERFERE WITH THE AIRBAGS PROPER DEPLOYMENT.
