Factory specifications, fluid capacities, torque values, EPA fuel economy and the federal safety record for the 2021 F-Pace.

Transmission Automatic (S8)

The 2021 Jaguar F-Pace comes with an eight-speed automatic transmission and returns an EPA-estimated 22 mpg city, 27 mpg highway, and 24 mpg combined. Owner-reported complaints for the model year total seven, with the electrical system cited as the top concern and four recalls issued. Across the 2017–2024 model run, complaint volumes peaked at 63 in 2017 and fell to just two in 2023, placing the 2021 F-Pace well below the early high but still above the most recent low. This trajectory points to a steady improvement in reported issues over the vehicle's generation.

Factory maintenance schedule OEM · verified

Normal service, condensed from the factory interval matrix.

Under the factory schedule, replace the engine oil and filter every 16,000 mi; spark plugs every 96,000 mi; coolant at 160,000 mi. The big-interval services (at 160,000 mi for coolant, and the transmission fluid) are the ones owners most often skip — on a lower-mileage example, assume the original fluids are still in it and check them first.

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 Jaguar F-Pace demonstrates a clear downward trend in federal complaints across its generation, falling from 63 in 2017 to zero by 2024. The 2021 model year sits within this improving arc, recording only 4 total complaints compared to 15 in 2019 and 2 in 2023. These few 2021 reports are distributed across the electrical system, lane departure steering, and fuel/propulsion systems, though the data does not specify the root causes. Furthermore, there are zero recorded crash or fire complaints for the 2021 model. Because it represents a significant improvement over early production years and maintains a very low complaint volume, this is a good year to buy.
