The 2018 Jaguar XF has 4 recalls, the most serious being a fuel rail end cap that can leak fuel into the engine bay, where hot engine or exhaust components can ignite it and cause a fire.
On vehicles equipped with the 2.0L gasoline engine, the fuel rail end caps may not seal properly, allowing either fuel vapor or liquid fuel to escape. There is also an airbag concern, though it only applies to XF Sportbrake models: the front airbag calibration may be set incorrectly, causing the airbags to deploy improperly in a low-speed crash and leaving the driver and front passenger without adequate protection. The fourth recall covers a broader range of model years and affects the instrument cluster, which can go blank intermittently, hiding critical information like vehicle speed from the driver.
