Jaguar F-TYPE: questions owners ask
Which Jaguar F-TYPE year has the most problems?
By owner complaints filed with NHTSA, the Jaguar F-TYPE model years with the most are the 2016 (11), 2018 (8) and 2015 (6). Newer model years have had less time on the road, so their counts are naturally lower; compare years of a similar age.
Which Jaguar F-TYPE years have the fewest complaints?
Leaving out the newest model years (too new to compare), the fewest owner complaints were filed for the 2014 (2), 2017 (2) and 2019 (3), out of 7 model years from 2014 to 2020. A low count can also mean that year sold fewer cars.
How many recalls does the Jaguar F-TYPE have?
NHTSA lists recalls for 7 Jaguar F-TYPE model years, 15 in total when counted per model year (one recall often covers several years). The years with the most are the 2015 (3), 2018 (3) and 2014 (2). Check a specific car's VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls.
