My 2011 Jaguar XF 5.0L V8 developed a serious fuel leak involving a cracked flange on top of the fuel tank. The problem initially presented as a strong raw gasoline odor around the vehicle, particularly after driving. The gasoline smell was noticeable near the rear of the vehicle, eventually became apparent around the entire exterior, and entered the passenger compartment through the air-conditioning vents. Initially, the odor was more noticeable when the fuel tank was full, but it later occurred even when the tank was approximately half full. An independent mechanic inspected the vehicle and identified a cracked flange on top of the fuel tank. The mechanic confirmed that gasoline was leaking from the cracked flange and showed me visible gasoline leakage underneath the vehicle. There was no check engine light or other warning indicating a fuel system malfunction. This condition presents a serious fire hazard because gasoline is escaping from the fuel system, and gasoline vapors can enter the passenger compartment. I am concerned about the safety of the driver, passengers, and others near the vehicle. The failure appears similar to the cracked fuel tank outlet flange condition described in Jaguar safety recall J027 (NHTSA recall 12V-521). On October 20, 2026, an authorized Jaguar dealership informed me in writing that the vehicle's VIN was not associated with any open safety campaigns. The dealership offered a paid diagnostic inspection but declined goodwill repair assistance. The dealership did not physically inspect the vehicle. I am requesting that NHTSA investigate this potentially related fuel system failure and determine whether the recall population should be reviewed. The vehicle has not been repaired and is currently being kept off the road because of the fire risk. I have obtained Jaguar Technical Bulletin J027NAS2, dated May 7, 2013, concerning Safety Recall J027 for a cracked fuel tank fuel outlet mounting flange. The bulletin identifies 2010–2012

I just recently purchased the car from a dealer here in Salt Lake City. But suddenly began to smell fuel mostly in the backseat area inside the car. I decided to investigate and found there is a leak underneath the rear passenger side of the car which appears to be fuel looks like it may be mixed with the little oil hard to say it's a pretty steady drip especially if I'm parked uphill. This is definitely a safety hazard being that it is fuel and could easily cause a fire putting me my family and others at risk. I noticed there was a recall on these vehicles it is a Jaguar XF 2011 but it looks like it has been closed from what I can tell. I'm hoping that that's not the case and we can get this fixed with minimum or no charge thing it was a recall

Currently the fuel tank IS ruptured leaking fuel on the ground. the leak IS not visible as to where it IS originating from. the leak stops after the car sits for about a half hour. I have not taken the car in for inspection. I did find that there was a recall for this possible problem back in 2012 and was wondering if the manufacture IS still liable for this problem even after it IS fixed the first time? other than the strong odor from the fuel the only indicator I received was the service soon light came on the dash. not sure if this would be covered under recal 12v521000.
I have reported this problem about my car stalling, cut off when I turn. I have noticed you have had several complaints for the same issue over and over again. I just went out on the forum. IS someone going to address these issues. Engine/fuel propulsion system/stalling in traffic IS dangerous many lives on these dangerous highways. How can my vehicle not be on the list for recall if several owners with the last 8 digit vin number starting with blr... please help!
Driving down the road, get to a light or I am turning- the car turns off for no reason. Then I cut it off then start it back up. It runs find. I thought it was just weird. Then happened again today twice. It stalls. My check engine light comes on. Why IS my stalling? Do you have any data for me? I am trying to find out what to do. I am going to research more as well. please help me!
I currently have a model year 2011 xf vehicles and it IS equipped with a 5.0L gasoline engine. It IS my understanding that this issue was affecting 2010-2012 xf vehicles equipped with the 5.0 l gasoline engine. The affected vehicles may have a fuel tank fuel outlet flange that may crack. I'm currently having the same issue that the recall IS speaking of; however, my vehicle IS not in the current recall. I wanted to bring this to jaguar's attention for current owners like myself, for the affected vehicles may have a fuel tank fuel outlet flange that may crack. I think this IS a very dangerous recall that should be for all of 2010-2012 xf that have this issue. this IS the information that IS currently posted online for jaguar's customers to see, but when I called about this recall, I was informed it didn't apply to me even though I am affected.
I had my 2011 jaguar running while I wait for a locksmith and I could smell fuel coming from the vehicle mainly on the side where the gas tank IS located. Once I sat inside the vehicle I could smell gas inside. I looked underneath the vehicle on the gas tank side and I noticed a fuel leak on the tank underneath. I had it checked and was told that it has to do with with the flange. I read that there IS a recall but when I put in my vin- it states no repairs or recalls. This should be covered.
Car shut off while in motion makinga left hand turn in rush hour traffic started pouring fuel from bottom of the vehicle. Then began making a clicking sound. Petrol was raining from the bottom of the car.

Vehicle subject to apparent fuel starvation. engine cuts out and cannot be restarted. sometimes when stationary and sometimes when moving. After a period of time it spontaneously restarts, typically next day. aaa towed and replaced the fuel pump with oem part, but it does not help. I can provide receipt if needed. appears to be very similar symptoms to the 2010 and 2013 jaguar xf recalls, but jaguar indicates that my vin IS not covered and I should contact the dealer at my own expense. persistent problem...dangerous and not fair! this happened 4 times so far, most recently yesterday. car has apx. 56K miles on it.
My car has a gas leak from the top seal. I saw where there IS a recall in this but manufacturing company keeps reeling me it's not my vin that the recall IS affected.
Vehicle died while driving and will not turn over. this happened a few times before. my mechanic tells me that it IS the fuel pump and that they were able to start the car by banging under the car near the fuel pump location. jaguar has a recall on the fuel pump relay for my car year and engine, but the jaguar national headquarters says that it doesn't apply to my vehicle. seems like a similar problem that should be covered by them.
I have a live that comes on that says restricted performances and it's so dangerous I was driving on the interstate and soon as that light restricted performance the car lost of power... It don't do any every time I pushed of the gas the car slowed down. The car only have 70,000 miles on it. IS this not a recall on that?
Hi fumes of gasoline odor inside the car. after I found out there has been a recall for fuel leak for 2010-2012 model I contacted jaguar and they issued a case number also they said my vin was not included in the recall but they recommended to take it to a jag dealer to assess the repair. jaguar later denied any further help with repair facilitation although I expressed my concerns about the safety problem being the same as the vins they recalled!
NHTSA’s Office of Defects Investigation opened these reviews into vehicles including this one.
In October 2012, Jaguar Land Rover LLC (JLR) submitted a Defect Information Report (DIR) to NHTSA describing a defect condition that could result in pressurized fuel leaks around the fuel supply line connection on the upper surface of the fuel tank assemblies of approximately 4,152 model year (MY) 2010 Jaguar XF vehicles equipped with 5.0L engines and manufactured between April 2009 and January 2010 (Recall 12V-521). The DIR indicated that the fuel system operating pressures of 5.0L gasoline engine XF vehicles may exceed the design specification under certain conditions, which may result in cracks in the fuel tank outlet flange. In January 2010, JLR changed the design of the tank outlet flange from the original version with no internal ribs, part number 9X23-9A309-AC (?AC flange?), to a revised part with internal ribbing reinforcing the area of the flange at the base of the fuel supply port where the cracks were occurring (?AD flange?). The scope of 12V-521 included 43 MY 2011-2012 XF vehicles with 5.0L engines that were equipped with the AC flanges as service replacement parts. In addition, in March 2016, JLR recalled 28 additional MY 2010 XF vehicles built with 5.0L engines and AC flanges that were inadvertently excluded from 12V-521 (Recall 16V-187). The AD flange was later replaced in production by the AE flange, which had internal ribbing like the AD flange and was used by JLR as the remedy part for 12V-521 and 16V-187. All the subject fuel tank flanges (AC, AD & AE) were supplied to JLR by Continental AG (now Vitesco Technologies). By October 2019, JLR had completed the recall remedies for 12V-521 and 16V-187 in 4,080 vehicles, resulting in an overall completion rate of 97 percent.On June 28, 2019, ODI opened RQ19-004 to investigate the scope and remedy for recalls 12V-521 and 16V-187, based on 30 complaints alleging fuel odor or leakage from the tank flange, including 19 in MY 2010 XF 4.2L vehicles equipped with the AC flange and 11 in MY 2010 through 2012 XF 5.0L vehicles equipped with revised flanges (AD/AE flanges) either as original equipment or as remedy parts under the subject recalls.ODI?s analysis of field data gathered under RQ19-004 identified a total of 51 complaints and field reports and 272 warranty claims related to fuel leakage from cracked flanges in the subject vehicles. Thirty-three (33) of the complaints and field reports and 200 of the warranty claims involved MY 2010 XF 4.2L equipped with the unreinforced AC flange, resulting in a complaint rate of 11.4 incidents per thousand vehicles (IPTV) and a claim rate of 6.9 percent. Twelve (12) of the complaints and field reports and 61 of the warranty claims involved MY 2010 ? 2012 XF 5.0L vehicles equipped with AD/AE flanges as original equipment parts, resulting in a complaint rate of 0.8 IPTV and a claim rate of 0.4 percent. Six (6) of the complaints and 11 of the warranty claims involved vehicles remedied under 12V-521 or 16V-187, resulting in a complaint rate of 1.5 IPTV and a claim rate of 0.3 percent.On February 13, 2020, JLR notified NHTSA that it was recalling approximately 2,907 model year MY 2010 Jaguar XF vehicles equipped with 4.2L engines and the AC flange to remedy a fuel tank flange cracking defect (Recall 20V-081). With this recall, there are no remaining products equipped with the unreinforced AC flange that are not under recall. Like the prior recalls, the remedy for 20V-081 involves replacing the AC flange with a modified part with the internal ribbing reinforcement (AE flange).ODI's analysis indicates that Recall 20V-081 addresses the scope concerns with tank flange cracking in the subject vehicles. Based on this analysis, this invest
