2007 Jaguar XK

Factory specifications, fluid capacities, torque values, EPA fuel economy and the federal safety record for the 2007 XK.

Body PASSENGER CARTransmission Automatic 6-spd

The 2007 Jaguar XK is a passenger car paired with a six-speed automatic transmission and EPA-rated at 16 mpg city, 25 mpg highway, and 19 mpg combined. Across the model's complaint history spanning 1997 through 2015, this particular model year records the highest volume of owner filings at 30 — with vehicle speed control emerging as the most-cited concern area and two recalls on file. Set against a 2009 low of just two complaints, that 2007 peak gives the model year a clear focal point for any researcher mapping the XK's reliability arc, marking it as the generation where problems concentrated most heavily before later years settled down.

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 XK sits at the peak of a complaint spike that defined the early second-generation XK, with 30 complaints—the highest in the entire dataset—compared to 26 in the launch year 2006 and a sharp drop to just 5 by 2008. This trend suggests that initial teething issues were concentrated in the first two model years, after which complaint volumes remained low (2–6) through 2015. While the 2007 model’s two recalls are not the highest in the generation (later years saw up to four), its 220 TSBs indicate a substantial number of service bulletins, though these are not necessarily all reliability defects. The top complaint area, vehicle speed control with 7 reports, along with 3 crash and 2 fire complaints, points to owner concerns, but the data does not specify root causes. Given the elevated complaint count relative to later, more sorted model years, a 2007 XK represents a higher-risk choice; a buyer should prioritize a detailed service history and pre-purchase inspection.
