Jaguar F-TYPE Recalls

There are currently 16 safety recalls out on the Jaguar F-TYPE. To find out whether your car is affected, you'll need to find your car's VIN number.

How to find your VIN

The VIN can often be found on the lower-left corner of the dashboard, in front of the steering wheel.

You can read the number by looking through the windshield. The VIN may also appear in a number of other locations:

  • Front of the engine block. This should be easy to spot by opening the bonnet, and looking at the front of the engine.
  • Front of the car frame, near the container that holds windshield washer fluid.
  • Rear wheel well. Try looking up, directly above the tyre.
  • Inside the driver-side doorjamb. Open the door, and look underneath where the side-view mirror would be located if the door was shut.
  • Driver-side doorpost. Open the door, and look near the spot where the door latches, not too far from the seatbelt return.
  • Underneath the spare tyre.

  • Announcement date:
    10/09/2015
    Recalls number:
    R/2015/181
    VIN start:
    SAJAC61B1G8K22719
    VIN end:
    SAJAL61X0G8K22402
    Car Build Date:
    09/02/2015 - 24/02/2015
    Concern:
    Loss Of Control
    Defect:
    The electric power steering system may still be set in the factory operating mode. In this condition where another defect arises with the electric power steering system the driver may experience additional unexpected steering inputs from the electric power steering system. These additional system generated steering inputs may exceed the ability of a normal driver who may lose vehicle control with no warning. This can increase the risk of a crash.
    Remedy:
    Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to either 1. inspect the electronic power steering software version and where necessary download the correct software or 2. where the vehicle is not accessible to the supplier due to logistical reasons the dealer will replace the steering rack with a steering rack built to the correct specification.
  • Announcement date:
    30/06/2015
    Recalls number:
    R/2015/115
    VIN start:
    SAJWJ6FV8G8K17984
    VIN end:
    SAJXJ6HL1GMK24640
    Car Build Date:
    10/09/2014 - 14/03/2015
    Concern:
    Loss Of Control
    Defect:
    Anti-Roll bars of incorrect specification have been fitted to vehicles equipped with All Wheel Drive (AWD) with Constantly Variable Damping (CVD). In this mis-built condition at the extremes of adhesion and in an over steer situation the Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) system will not mitigate the over steer. The drivers will most likely loose vehicle control of the vehicle. This can increase the risk of a crash.
    Remedy:
    Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and replace the rear Anti-roll bar with the correct specification component.
  • Announcement date:
    10/11/2014
    Recalls number:
    R/2014/090
    VIN start:
    SAJAA65B5F8K15254
    VIN end:
    SAJAC61B5F8K15884
    Car Build Date:
    10/06/2014 - 25/06/2014
    Concern:
    Vehicle May Become Unstable At High Speeds
    Defect:
    Due to an issue with the software in the engine management system (EMS) it is possible that the EMS will not restrict the vehicle speed to 137mph if the Deployable Rear Spoiler (DRS) does not deploy when it should . This can affect vehicle stability; although this should not affect vehicles used in the UK due to the National Speed Limit however it could affect vehicles that travel to Europe or are used on private grounds.
    Remedy:
    Recall all affected vehicles to have new software installed.
  • Announcement date:
    27/10/2014
    Recalls number:
    R/2014/145
    VIN start:
    SAJXA6BU8F8K17144
    VIN end:
    SAJWA6AT0F8K18826
    Car Build Date:
    18/08/2014 - 02/10/2014
    Concern:
    Risk Of Fire
    Defect:
    The positive cable fixing to the alternator may come loose and lead to an elevated risk of fire. Additionally there are concerns raised regarding the fixings for the engine mounted belt driven ancillaries. If the fixings fail power assistance to the steering can be lost and more input from the driver will be required to steer the vehicle.
    Remedy:
    Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to inspect and torque the front ancillary fixings to the correct specification.
