Each campaign in detail

  1. Front seatbelt pretensioner recall (2017 model, built in 2016)

    Manufacturer recall

    NHTSA recall 16V940: the front seatbelt pretensioners may not deploy in a serious accident, increasing the risk of injury. The recall concerns F-Types built from 14 July to 16 December 2016 (2017 model year); dealers inspect and replace the belts free of charge. US recall: check the serial number with a Jaguar dealer. What Car? also reports a recall for faulty pretensioners on cars built in 2016.

    Fixed free of charge by a dealer and not counted in the reliability score: ask for proof the work was done (invoice, or a VIN check at a dealer).
