Power train › Driveline › Driveshaft

Aftermarket equipment: applies only if this part was installed

Summary: Jaguar land rover north america, Inc.

The driveshaft may detach from the vehicle while in motion resulting in loss of drive and loss of transmission park functionality, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash and/or injury.
