What this page shows
Everything below is an owner-reported complaint submitted to NHTSA about the 2014 Jaguar F-Type, grouped by the component NHTSA recorded on the report. These are not confirmed defects, and they are not recalls. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a category with more reports in it is not evidence that a part is defective.
Complaints are reports submitted by owners and drivers to NHTSA. They are not verified and do not establish that a defect exists.

Each component in detail
What the reports in each category say, in the owners' own words
Airbags
Reports naming the air-bag system — deployment behaviour, inflators, sensors and warning lights.
From owner reports, verbatim
FOUND RECALL CONCERNING PASSENGER AIR BAG ON NHTSA WEBSITE. DEALER SAYS THERE IS NO FIX FOR IT YET, AND IT WILL TAKE MONTHS FOR THEM TO COME UP WITH A FIX. SO THE CAR JUST SITS IN MY GARAGE WHILE I KEEP MAKING LOAN PAYMENTS, IT'S UNSAFE TO DRIVE AND DEALER WON'T DO ANYTHING. LAST YEAR ALSO HAD PROBLEMS WITH AIRBAG, IN THAT CASE - THE DRIVER'S ONE. DELAER FIXED IT, JUST OVER A YEAR SINCE THEN THE AIRBAG LIGHT ON DASH CAME ON AGAIN, DEALER REFUSES TO FIX, SAYS THEY ONLY GUARANTEE REPAIRS FOR 12 MONTHS AND WANTS TO CHARGE FOR SAME PARTS AND LABOR AGAIN. SO PRETTY MUCH BOTH AIRBAGS IN THE CAR ARE BAD AND DEALER REFUSES TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY. TPMS SENSOR MALFUNCTION WARNING COMES ON AND OFF ALL THE TIME - THIS ISSUE WAS ALSO SUPPOSEDLY FIXED BY DEALER, THEY SAY THEY CAN'T TRACK THE PROBLEM AND CAN DO NOTHING MORE TO HELP. I WANT A RELIABLE AND SAFE CAR TO DRIVE, CLEARLY THIS CAN'T BE SAID ABOUT JAGUARS, MOREOVER - DEALER IS VERY INCOMPETENT, THEY DON'T KNOW THEIR OWN CARS AND INCAPABLE OF FIXING THESE CARS' CONSTANTLY REOCCURRING PROBLEMS. I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO!

Higher-selling and older vehicles accumulate more reports. Counts are not failure rates and are not directly comparable between vehicles that sold in very different numbers.
