3 recalls across 3 model years
The Jaguar X-Type has 3 recalls covering 2001 through 2004 model years, the most serious being a fuel filler cap on 2004 models that fails to seal properly around the filler neck and can allow fuel to escape during a rollover, creating a fire risk.
On 2001 models equipped with a manual transmission, the automatic handbrake adjustment can fail to apply enough clamping force to hold the vehicle stationary when the transmission is left in neutral, allowing the car to roll away. The 2002 model year has an electrical issue where a loss of power to the exterior turn signal lights causes the interior indicator light to flash normally rather than signaling a fault, leaving the driver unaware that the outside signals have stopped working.
