Tsb technical service bulletins for our cars? There should be a sticky!
Does anyone know where to find complete technical service bulletins for our cars ? would really appreciate it. I tried searching but have come up with sporadic results. We should make a sticky out of it when such info is available.
Would be nice to know what the dealer knows about any potential issues with our cars

By law, in the USA at least, manufacturers must make all the TSBs, recall bulletins, and the like available to the public. In theory, at least, you could ask your dealer for them or contact Jaguar. I'm not sure how much cooperation you'd get.
In the back of your owners manual there may be specific contact information regarding this.

I think JLR would argue they are available to everyone because they are posted on TOPIx but there is an acess charge. Do US laws/regulations require manufacturer information to be "available" or "freely available"?

Hmmm. I'm not sure.
Back in my dealership days 'the factory' always instructed us to provide TSBs to customers when requested, and we did so without argument, and free of charge. Of course we hadn't neither the time nor inclination to look up and provide every TSB for xxx-model of car. Way too much work. We'd advise the customer to contact corporate in those cases.
There was a time, and perhaps still, when the owners manuals gave instructions on how to obtain TSBs. I don't know if that was an actual requirement.
Making this info available to consumers is a positive thing IMO, for obvious reasons. However, there is a downside, albeit a small one.
Since the info must be available to consumers, it must first be edited and vetted for public consumption. That is, the legal eagles must review it. This sometimes added months of delay in getting TSBs to dealerships.

I know that all manufactures have to provide TSB's to The National Highway Transport Administration NHTSA and they are "public domain information" so "freely available". Unfortunately extracting them from the NHTSA site is painful.

Yes yes sticky with relevant information would be great
