1 problem is the interior build quality has developed a squeak/rattle.
2012 JAGUAR XF FULL
Preventative Maintenance costs aren't TOO bad as long as you avoid the dealer for that, I got a full synthetic oil change, fluids topped off, fuel injectors cleaned, 4 wheel-alignment, flat tire repair, different tire installed, and 2 air filters replaced all for $245. The brisk, effortless acceleration from the v8 delivers lots of laughs and is high on the giggle meter. Car is great to drive, great to be seen in, comfortable seats, great sound system on the portfolio trim. I specifically only looked for 2012's because in 2012 was the first year of the model refresh giving it the unbelievably seductive headlights and tail lights and more refreshes, but 2012 is also the LAST year of the standard 5.0 L V8 motor. The exclusivity, looks, style, used value, etc. That is the type of issue that can happen to any car so I'm not knocking the vehicle TOO much there. Although frustrating to have those issues and keep having to go back to the dealer, the actual dealership was great to work with and ended up getting it resolved, they gave me a loaner car 2 of the 3 times. They ended up replacing the coolant reservoir the first time, the Y pipe the second time, and the 3rd try was the charm having replaced a hose that was leaking. It took 3 trips to the dealer to get it fixed.

The dealership stood by Jaguar's warranty and helped me. Lucky me because this happened at 49k miles and it has a 4 year/50k mile warranty.

A few months after purchasing the vehicle used with 45k miles a coolant leak developed.
