Technical Bulletin:TSBH299NAS3 / NAS20.11.001 H299 recall Hello, I am submitting this complaint regarding my 2019 Jaguar XE, which I purchased in 2026. After experiencing issues with the vehicle, I had a diagnostic check performed. The findings indicated that the vehicle needs a variable camshaft timing VCT solenoid replacement. Based on the diagnostic findings, my vehicle appears to be experiencing the same issue addressed in Jaguar technical bulletin TSBH299NAS3. I contacted Jaguar Customer Service to inquire...

about coverage for this repair. However, I was advised that my vehicle's VIN is not included in the H299 recall. When I explained that my vehicle is experiencing the same issue addressed by the bulletin, Jaguar Customer Service advised me to submit a complaint to NHTSA in an attempt to have the matter reviewed and potentially resolved. I am concerned that my vehicle is experiencing a mechanical issue addressed by an existing Jaguar technical bulletin, yet I am being denied solely because my VIN is not included. I believe vehicle owners experiencing the same defect should receive fair consideration, particularly when the issue has already been identified by the manufacturer. I respectfully request that NHTSA review this matter. Thank you so much

I am concerned that a potentially serious engine/timing-system defect may exist in my 2019 Jaguar XE R-Sport 2.0L Ingenium gasoline engine (64,820 miles). Jaguar Service Action H299 addresses VCT solenoids on certain 2018-2020 XE models, and my VIN falls within the identified VIN range. In August 2026, my vehicle developed a VCT/camshaft-related fault. An independent Jaguar/Land Rover repair facility replaced the camshaft adjuster solenoids, but the problem persisted as indicated by the engine service light. The...

vehicle then began running noticeably rougher and developed a rattling noise every time the engine is started. The repair facility recommended approximately upper timing-chain-related repairs, which I declined. Jaguar North America referred me to an authorized Jaguar retailer, which has advised me not to drive the vehicle because of the rough running and rattling. The earliest diagnostic appointment is September 21, 2026, and I have been advised repairs could potentially cost approximately 10,000 or more. I request that NHTSA document and investigate whether these VCT/timing-system problems represent a broader safety-related defect in affected Jaguar XE vehicles.
Subject: 2019 Jaguar XE - Recall H535 Did Not Restore Rear Camera Function I own a 2019 Jaguar XE that experienced rear-view camera failure consistent with Recall H535 regarding rear camera wiring issues.

besides "salt" & "moisture" has gotten inside and these things just happen. This does not sound like normal wear and tear for a 6 year old car with that low of miles. Especially when taken care of. Can not pinpoint exactly how moisture got inside or where in the line. States the battery line brings the power from the back of the car where the battery is to the front and the voltage isn't getting through to start the vehicle. What if you were driving and then suddenly it gave out due to this? This sounds like a safety issue and jaguar doesn't want to be reliable for it. I had no indication anything was wrong with it just one day it worked and then the next day it didn't.
