Does a recall affect your Jaguar F-Type?

Not every Jaguar F-Type is affected. Each recall covers cars built on particular dates or with particular VINs, which DVSA’s file does not list in full. To check a specific car, use GOV.UK’s vehicle recall check with its registration, or ask the manufacturer or a dealer, who can check the VIN.

2015 2 recalls

Loss of control

Launched 10 September 2015 DVSA recall R/2015/181 Manufacturer ref. P055

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.

9 Feb 2015 to 24 Feb 2015

Loss of control

Launched 30 June 2015 DVSA recall R/2015/115 Manufacturer ref. J053

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.

2014 2 recalls

Vehicle may become unstable at high speeds

Launched 10 November 2014 DVSA recall R/2014/090 Manufacturer ref. J043

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.
Vehicles affected
102 F-Type vehicles

10 Jun 2014 to 25 Jun 2014

Risk of fire

Launched 27 October 2014 DVSA recall R/2014/145 Manufacturer ref. J044

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.

  • Road vehicle recalls (DVSA numbers starting R/) whose model names match the Jaguar F-Type. DVSA records some recalls under a range or chassis name we cannot match, so this list may be incomplete.
  • Vehicles affected is the number the manufacturer reported to DVSA. When one recall covers several models, DVSA often gives only the total.
  • Build dates are the periods the manufacturer gave. Some recalls have none. VINs are not shown.
  • Concerns written in capitals have been put in sentence case, and apostrophes lost in DVSA’s file have been put back. The text is otherwise DVSA’s.
