Jaguar XJ6 — reported problems

What owners report: issue areas

Owner complaints are classified by the system they concern: 102 classifications in all. One complaint can concern several systems, so these add up to more than the number of complaints.

• Speed control & accelerator32 (31.4%)
• Brakes12 (11.8%)
• Electrical system8 (7.8%)
• Engine8 (7.8%)
• Powertrain (transmission & drivetrain)8 (7.8%)
• Air bags (restraint system)6 (5.9%)

Other / uncategorized: 6 classifications (5.9%) 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 (74 records, model years 1995–1997) are most frequently classified under: speed control & accelerator, brakes and engine.

"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

• 26reports included a mileage
• 62,113average 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. 1995 26 records for 1995 26
2. 1996 34 records for 1996 34
3. 1997 20 records for 1997 20

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