Jaguar S-TYPE in the other registers
This site holds seven national and European registers. Jaguar S-TYPE is named on 4 Japanese notices. Those are separate campaigns, filed with separate authorities on their own schedules.
The Japanese register

A model recalled in one country is often recalled in another, in different words and at a different time, and the authorities do not cross-reference each other. Reading them together is the reason this site holds more than one register.

Certain vehicles do not comply with the requirements of CMVSS 135.

Correction: Jaguar will mail letters to all registered owners which will include labels containing the required warning statement and installation instructions.

Reading this against the source
This page is what Transport Canada published in the Vehicle Recalls Database, kept as it was read. The authority publishes only its current wording; if a notice is rewritten, the earlier version disappears there and is kept here. The whole register is at /canada, and how the reading is done is set out in the method.
What the words on this notice mean — the system it is filed under, and what the filing type says about who found the fault.
This register keeps an index of its own for every maker and every year it holds: Canadian recalls on a Jaguar: 110 in the register, and 449 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 2004.
