Jaguar XE — reported problems

CarFaultIQ holds 3,079 evidence records for the Jaguar XE (2017–2021), drawn from official sources and owner complaints.

What owners report: issue areas

Owner complaints are classified by the system they concern: 120 classifications in all. One complaint can concern several systems, so these add up to more than the number of complaints.

  • Driver-assistance systems22 (18.3%)Official recall records for this system: 2, covering model years 2019–2020.
  • Electrical system22 (18.3%)Official recall records for this system: 2, covering model years 2018–2020.
  • Engine20 (16.7%)
  • Air bags (restraint system)10 (8.3%)
  • Fuel system10 (8.3%)Official recall records for this system: 6, covering model years 2017–2018.
  • Powertrain (transmission & drivetrain)6 (5.0%)

Other / uncategorized: 6 classifications (5.0%) were not assigned to a specific system by the source. They are counted but not treated as an issue area.

These are counts of records held by CarFaultIQ, not a failure rate. More records can simply mean more vehicles were sold or more owners reported. No vehicles-in-service figure exists in this data, so no reliability or risk score can be derived from it.

What the records are about, by source

Each source is kept separate: owner complaints, recalls, manufacturer communications and investigations are different kinds of record and are never added together. All model years.

  • Owner complaints (72 records, model years 2017–2020) are most frequently classified under: electrical system, driver-assistance systems and engine.
  • Manufacturer communications (2,977 records, model years 2017–2021) are most frequently classified under: electrical system, equipment & accessories and powertrain (transmission & drivetrain).

"Most frequently classified under" reports how the records are filed by the source. It is not a finding about causes, and a record can be filed under more than one system. Read the individual records

Mileage reported when the issue occurred

  • 32reports included a mileage
  • 37,370average of those mileages

This is the mileage owners recorded at the time they reported, not an expected failure mileage and not a prediction for any individual vehicle. The lowest and highest figures on record are not shown: they are unverified odometer entries that include zeros and implausibly high readings, so they would not describe a real range. A median is not shown either, because the stored figures are group totals and a median cannot be recovered from them.

Evidence by model year

Records held per model year. Select a year to narrow this page to it.

  1. 2017 639 records for 2017
  2. 2018 621 records for 2018

  4. 2020 302 records for 2020
  5. 2021 153 records for 2021

Counts are not adjusted for how many vehicles were sold in each year, so a taller year is not necessarily a worse year.
