Mileage when owners reported a problem with the 1992 XJ6
Too few complaints on the 1992 XJ6 list a mileage to say when owners reported problems: 3 of its 14 complaints list a mileage (79,200 to 130,000 miles), and a median is given here only with 10 or more.
These mileages say when owners reported a problem, not when a 1992 XJ6 wears out. NHTSA's file holds only vehicles whose owners complained; one that ran without a problem never appears in it, so it gives no lifespan and no cutoff, and how a vehicle was maintained matters more than any one odometer reading.
Is the 1992 XJ6 a good year?
Complaint counts cannot say whether the 1992 is a good or a bad XJ6: they rise with how many were sold and how long they have been on the road. They show how the 1992 compares with the other model years in NHTSA's file.
With 14 complaints, the 1992 ranks 3rd of the 7 Jaguar XJ6 model years from 1988 to 1996 with 10 or more complaints, counting from the most, tied with 1991. The most: the 1996 (20). The fewest: the 1988 and 1990 (10 each).
Recent model years have had less time to collect complaints, so their counts are still growing. No year is ranked by mileage here, because a year's median mileage mostly follows its age.
| Model year | Owner complaints | Listing mileage | Median mileage |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1988 XJ6 | 10 | 1 | Under 10 mileages |
| 1989 XJ6 | 17 | 6 | Under 10 mileages |
| 1990 XJ6 | 10 | 0 | Under 10 mileages |
| 1991 XJ6 | 14 | 3 | Under 10 mileages |
| 1992 (this page) | 14 | 3 | Under 10 mileages |
| 1995 XJ6 | 11 | 5 | Under 10 mileages |
| 1996 XJ6 | 20 | 6 | Under 10 mileages |

What these figures can and cannot tell you
- Complaints are owners’ reports to NHTSA. NHTSA publishes them without verifying them: a complaint is an allegation, not a defect finding.
- The mileage is what the owner wrote on the complaint; NHTSA does not check it against the odometer.
- The make, model and model year are the ones on the complaint. NHTSA records them as filed, so a few complaints sit under a model year the name was not sold in.
- They are not a lifespan study. The file holds only vehicles whose owners reported a problem, so these figures do not say how long a typical 1992 XJ6 lasts.
- A complaint count rises with how many vehicles were sold and how long they have been on the road, so it is not a rating of the 1992 XJ6.
- Nothing here describes one vehicle: its title brands, odometer readings, accidents and open recalls are in the records for its own VIN.
- 11 of the 14 complaints on the 1992 Jaguar XJ6 give no usable mileage (blank, zero, a filler such as 999999, or over 500,000) and are left out of every mileage figure.
- NHTSA name counted: XJ6. NHTSA files some vehicles under several names (a series name and a trim name, for example); this page counts only this one.
- Recall-file name matched: XJ6.
