Owner-reported complaints naming the engine system, filed with NHTSA
Data refreshed
Engine reportsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

This vehicle has left me stranded with my family multiple times with out being able to pull over on the side of the road. It’s had so many coolant leaks, hoses bust, and a hand full of coolant leaks in the whole system. The jaguar dealership has worked on vehicle multiple of times without any success. The vehicle while driving didn’t even warn me the coolant was low. When I pulled over and opened the hood, it busted of the coolant cap on its own and coolant was busting out everywhere cause it to leak on me.

I WOULD LIKE TO REPORT FOR YOUR ASSISTANCE REGARDING MY WIFE, INCI'S UNFORTUNATE ACCIDENT ON 10/04/2019. SHE IS SUFFERING SIGNIFICANT PAIN DUE TO POST-ACCIDENT STERNUM AND RIB FRACTURES. I AM REPORTING THIS ACCIDENT REPORT FOR HER. AS CLEARLY DOCUMENTED BY THE ATTACHED VIDEO CLIP, SHE COMES AT THE FRONT OF THE GARAGE AND STOPS THE CAR FOR OPENING THE GARAGE DOOR. INSTEAD OF TURNING RIGHT SIDE TO PARK THE CAR THAT ACCELERATES WITHOUT ANY CONTROL STRAIGHTFORWARD AND HITS THE WALL. ALTHOUGH THE SPACE BETWEEN THE CAR AND WALL IS APPROXIMATELY 20- 22 FEET, THE DAMAGE IN THE CAR WAS A TOTAL DUE TO THE UNINTENTIONAL AND UNCONTROLLABLE ACCELERATION INDUCED HIGH SPEED [PICTURE IS ATTACHED]. MOREOVER, SHE HITS HER UPPER FRONT CHEST TO THE STEERING WHEEL AND THE AIR BAG OF THE CAR COMES AFTER THE IMPACT. THEREFORE, SHE HAD STERNUM AND RIB FRACTURES BY THE CHEST X-RAYS AND CHEST CT IMAGES FROM THE HOUSTON IMAGING LAB. THESE FRACTURES ARE VERY PAINFUL AND CAUSING A SIGNIFICANT LOSS OF HER QUALITY OF LIFE. WE BELIEVE THAT THIS UNFORTUNATE ACCIDENT MAY BE RELATED TO THE MECHANICAL FAILURES OF HER 2017 JAGUAR XE WITH UNCONTROLLABLE ACCELERATION & MALFUNCTIONING AIR BAG. OUR CAR INSURANCE COMP., THE STATE FARM IS PLANNING TO REVIEW THE "BLACK BOX" FROM THE CAR FOR FURTHER DOCUMENTATION. WE WOULD LIKE TO INFORM YOUR OFFICE .REGARDING THIS CAR'S SAFETY DEFECTS TO PREVENT SIMILAR LIFE-THREATENING EVENTS.

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.
