Reliability & federal safety record

Owner-reported issues, recalls, investigations and service bulletins on record with NHTSA — an unfiltered look at what owners actually experience.

The 2007 Jaguar S-Type sits at the nadir of the generation's federal complaint curve, recording just six complaints — the lowest of any model year from 1999 through 2008 — alongside a single recall and 45 technical service bulletins. This marks a sharp decline from the 2005 peak of 90 complaints and continues the steady improvement seen after 2006's 22 complaints, while the final 2008 year shows a modest rebound to 13 complaints with zero recalls. The 2007 complaint profile is diffuse, with only one report each in service brakes, electrical system, a combined power train/wheels/brakes category, and tires; the data does not specify root causes, and no crash or fire complaints were logged. Across the generation, recalls fluctuated between zero and four per year without a clear pattern, while TSB volumes generally trended downward from the 2000 high of 157. By every federal metric captured here, the 2007 model year represents the cleanest regulatory record of the S-Type's production run. For a buyer prioritizing documented reliability history, this is the strongest year to target.
