Does a recall affect your Jaguar XE Series?

Not every Jaguar XE Series 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.

Fuel hose may leak

Launched 19 May 2017 DVSA recall R/2017/143 Manufacturer ref. H016

Should leaking fuel come into contact with a sufficiently hot surface in the engine bay there will be an increased risk of fire.
Remedy
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and replace the fuel return hose.

Fuel may leak

Launched 9 February 2017 DVSA recall R/2016/297 Manufacturer ref. J079

Defect
It has been identified that the underfloor mounted diesel fuel cooler may not have been manufactured to specification. This can result in fuel leak. The driver will become aware of the issue by either a smell of fuel pooling of fuel under the vehicle when stationary or by an increase in fuel consumption. Where a leak is present pooling can occur on the road surface which can present a skid hazard to other road users and increase the risk of a crash. In extreme circumstances the pooling of fuel underneath the vehicle could in the presence of an ignition source lead to a fire.
Remedy
Recall all affected vehicle to have the diesel fuel cooler replace with a new quality assured cooler.

Engine may cut out and fail to restart

Launched 24 March 2016 DVSA recall R/2016/037 Manufacturer ref. J062

Defect
The under bonnet low pressure fuel feed hose may detach from the fuel filter. A fuel smell may be noticed due to fuel leaking into the engine bay and in the event of hose detachment the engine will cut out. Once the engine has cut out the brake vacuum reservoir will be depleted after 2-3 brake pedal depressions and the vehicle will lose brake power assistance however foundation brakes continue to operate. The engine cannot be re-started. Engine cut out with minimal warning could potentially cause a crash.
Remedy
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and add a spring wire retention clip to the low pressure fuel feed hose joint.

Derived statistics UK Motoring 		January 1992 to September 2026 13 recalls matched to this model 15 September 2026
  • Road vehicle recalls (DVSA numbers starting R/) whose model names match the Jaguar XE Series. 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.
