Jaguar engine problems

Owners have filed 517 complaints with NHTSA about the engine on Jaguar vehicles — 14% of everything reported about the brand, across 27 models. The model that accounts for most of them is the Jaguar XF, worst in 2010.

These are raw counts. A model that sold in millions appears near the top for that reason alone — the grade never compares one model with another.
