2015 JAGUAR F-TYPE Complaints and Recall Information
The 2015 JAGUAR F-TYPE has 0 complaints and 6 recalls filed with NHTSA. Owners most frequently report issues related to safety systems and electrical components based on recall data.
There are 6 recalls affecting various systems including the electrical system, engine belts, wiring, airbags, and seat belts. These recalls address potential fire risks, loss of power assisted steering, and improper airbag deployment due to wiring defects in occupant classification and seatbelt tension sensors.
Recalls- Alternator and belt components. Recall 14V673000 affects 272 vehicles. The Front End Accessory Drive (FEAD) belt, power assisted steering pump pulley, or battery positive cable may detach. A loose battery cable can cause electrical shorts and fire risk. A detached FEAD belt can cause loss of power assisted steering increasing crash risk. Dealers will inspect and correct threading and torque free of charge.
- Engine belts and pulleys. Recall 14V673000, overlapping the previous, involves the same 272 vehicles. The recall covers the same defect with the FEAD belt and related components that may cause fire or loss of power steering. The fix is inspection and repair by dealers at no cost to owners.
- Seatbelt wiring harness. Recall 14V714000 covers 7,079 vehicles. The seatbelt harness connector for the Seatbelt Tension Sensor (STS) to the Occupant Classification Sensor Control Module (OCSCM) may be miswired. This defect can prevent proper suppression of the passenger airbag when a child restraint is used, increasing injury risk. Dealers will reconfigure wiring free of charge.
- Occupant classification sensor. Recall 19V326000 affects 7,060 vehicles previously remedied under Recall 14V714000. The STS to OCSCM wiring may still be incorrect, causing the Restraint Control Module to misclassify passengers. This could trigger airbag deployment with a child present, raising injury risk. Dealers will inspect and repair the harness as needed at no charge.
- Seat belts. Recall 19V326000 also covers the same 7,060 vehicles. The seatbelt tension sensor wiring defect can cause improper airbag deployment. Owners will receive free repairs including inspection and correction of the seatbelt assembly harness.
- Electrical wiring system. Recall 19V326000 repeats the wiring defect on 7,060 vehicles from prior recalls involving the STS and OCSCM. Incorrect wiring poses risk of airbag deployment when inappropriate and injury to small occupants. The remedy includes inspection and repair by dealers at no cost.
Owners dealing with repeated repairs or unresolved recall issues related to safety defects may have rights under their state’s lemon law. Those affected should consider consulting a qualified attorney to evaluate their situation.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:WIRING
Jaguar Land Rover North America, LLC (Jaguar Land Rover) is recalling certain 2014-2015 Jaguar F-TYPE vehicles previously remedied under Recall 14V-714. The seatbelt harness connector which connects the Seatbelt Tension Sensor (STS) to the Occupant Classification Sensor Control Module (OCSCM) may not have been correctly wired. As a result, the Restraint Control Module (RCM) may not accurately detect if an adult or child is occupying the seat.
Risk: In the event of a crash necessitating air bag deployment, an incorrect classification may result in the passenger frontal air bag deploying even if there is a child in the front passenger seat, increasing their risk of injury.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:WIRING
Jaguar Land Rover North America LLC (Jaguar) is recalling certain model year 2014-2015 F-TYPE vehicles manufactured August 31, 2012, to October 22, 2014. In the affected vehicles the seatbelt harness connector which connects the Seatbelt Tension Sensor (STS) to the Occupant Classification Sensor Control Module (OCSCM) may not have been correctly wired. The OCSCM senses whether there is an occupant in the front passenger seating position, and the STS senses whether tension on the seatbelt indicates a child restraint is being used in the front passenger seating position. Both sensors provide information to the restraint control module (RCM) which informs whether the front passenger airbag should be activated, depending on whether the sensors detect the seat is occupied and/or that it is occupied by an adult passenger.
Risk: Should the STS not have been wired correctly, the front passenger air bag may not be suppressed, and may remain activated, even when a child restraint is placed in the front passenger seat or a small statured adult occupies that seat. In the event of a crash necessitating deployment of the front passenger air bag, a child or small stature occupant may be at an increased risk of injury.

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE:GASOLINE:BELTS AND ASSOCIATED PULLEYS
Jaguar Land Rover North America, LLC (Jaguar) is recalling certain 2015 F-TYPE vehicles manufactured August 25, 2014, to September 12, 2014, 2015 XF vehicles manufactured September 3, 2014, to September 12, 2014, and 2015 XJ vehicles manufactured August 21, 2014, to September 11, 2014. In the affected vehicles, the Front End Accessory Drive (FEAD) belt, Power Assisted Steering (PAS) pump pulley and/or battery positive cable at the alternator may detach.
Risk: If the battery positive cable loosens, an electrical short may result, increasing the risk of a fire. If the FEAD belt looses or detaches, the vehicle may lose power assisted steering, increasing the risk of a crash.
