New Car Assessment Program
The 2015JAGUARXF carries 32 consumer safety complaints in NHTSA's Office of Defects Investigation database for this specific model-year cohort. Within that volume, owners reported 0 crashes, 3 fires, 0 injuries, and 0 fatalities. For crash performance, NHTSA's New Car Assessment Program gave this cohort an overall Not Rated/5 rating, with Not Rated/5 front crash, Not Rated/5 side crash, and Not Rated/5 rollover scores derived from standardized barrier and dynamic tests.
Component-level analysis is where model-year complaints become actionable: the top complaint category for the 2015 XF is engine with 5 filings, followed by fuel/propulsion system (4) and steering (3). Concentration in one or two component groups is the classic signature of a systemic defect; a flat distribution usually reflects normal aging, warranty complaints, or isolated build-plant variability. This model year has 5 active recall campaigns, which means the manufacturer is obligated to remedy the covered defect at no charge for the life of the vehicle — the full NHTSA campaign numbers are listed below.
NHTSA currently has 2 investigation files overlapping the 2015 XF. Owners comparing this cohort against neighboring years should pair the counters above with the complaint-by-year trend on the parent model page — a spike in a single year often tracks to a platform refresh, a new transmission supplier, or an updated ECU calibration. Use the related-complaint feed below to read raw owner narratives before deciding whether any pattern here affects your specific use case.

the engine stopped working. The dealer said a new was required since the engine no longer had enough compression in one cylinder. The car had only 83,000 miles. In talking with other repair shops, they said this is a common feature in many 2015 XFs.
My vehicle has about 68k miles, I have always serviced the vehicle properly. While driving the car my steering locked up and my vehicle lost all power on a busy road with my children in the car. Luckily we are safe but this is very dangerous. I have had the car inspected by several certified and insured mechanics and the engine pulley broke off of my engine block causing my entire engine and steering to shut down. Every mechanic says this is not normal and should not have happened at this mileage or without a huge impact and they all agree it is a safety hazard especially since the car gave no waring of engine needing to be serviced.

I was pulling onto my street and my steering wheel locked. The car was still running and the message said battery not charging. I had never experienced this. I panicked and powered the car off in the middle of the street. I turned it back it i could move forward but the steering wheel was locked. I got the car towed. 3 times because only jaguar can fix the problem. Itâs the crankshaft pulley. My issue is my car is a 2015. There was a recall on this part March 2016. It was fixed by the dealership June 2016. I purchased the car January 2017. How is it that this part has gone bad so fast. Also with this part being able to break down out of no where why isnât some kind of dashboard warning? There was no warning sound no lights or anything. Thank god I made it off the freeway. If this was a know issue in 2016 why not create a warning other than âbattery not chargingâ? Now I face a $2000 repair and could have had a serious accident being broke down in the middle of traffic out of no

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND NOTICED MY CAR DID NOT WANT TO PULL WHEN I SPED UP. A FEW MORE MILES DOWN THE ROAD I NOTICED SMOKE COMING FROM MY TAIL PIPE AND THE MY AIR VENTS. SO I PULLED OVER, GOT OUT, AND WALKED AROUND TO THE FRONT OF THE CAR AND NOTICED WHAT LOOKED LIKE OIL ON THE SIDE OF MY CAR. BY THIS TIME FIRE STARTED COMING FROM UNDER THE HOOD. WITHIN MINUTES MY CAR WAS BLAZING AND A TOTAL LOSS. WHAT HAPPENED TO MY CAR? THAT'S WHAT I REALLY WANT TO KNOW. HOW DOES A 2015 JAGUAR WITH ONLY 36,000 CATCH AND FIRE AND BURN UP.
