TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 JAGUAR XF. WHILE TRAVELING AT 50 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE THE CONTACT WAS AWAITING A DIAGNOSIS OF THE FAILURE. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE 9,000.

2010 JAGUAR XFR. CONSUMER STATES ENGINE MALFUNCTION *TGW THE CONSUMER STATED HIS WIFE WAS DRIVING 70 MPH ON THE INTERSTATE WHEN THE ENGINE SUDDENLY QUIT RUNNING. THE CONSUMERS WIFE MANAGED TO MANEUVER THE VEHICLE TO A NARROW STRIP BETWEEN THE OUTER LEFT EDGE OF THE FAST LANE AND GUARD RAIL. THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT RESTART; AND THE DASHBOARD DISPLAY SAID ENGINE MALFUNCTION. PRIOR TO THE INCIDENT, THE CONSUMER TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER BECAUSE THE LOW LEVEL FUEL LIGHT WAS ALWAYS ILLUMINATING JUST AFTER A FEW MILES OF DRIVING; EVEN WITH A FULL TANK OF GAS. AS SOON AS THE VEHICLE WAS RETURNED TO THE CONSUMER AND HE STARTED THE ENGINE, THE LOW LEVEL FUEL LIGHT ILLUMINATED AGAIN. THE CONSUMER WAS THEN INFORMED A NEW GAS TANK WOULD HAVE TO BE ORDERED BECAUSE THE SENSOR IN THE GAS TANK WAS OBVIOUSLY DEFECTIVE. THE DEALER INSTALLED A NEW GAS TANK AND THE LIGHT NEVER CAME BACK ON. *JB

I PURCHASED A 2010 JAGUAR XF LAST SUMMER AND BELIEVE THERE IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. SHORTLY AFTER TAKING DELIVERY, THE POWER BRAKE ASSIST FAILED WHEN I WAS ENTERING A FREEWAY. FORTUNATELY, I HAD TAPPED ON THE BRAKES TO AVOID A CAR IN THE LANE I WAS ENTERING. I IMMEDIATELY REALIZED THERE WAS VERY LITTLE BRAKING POWER. IF I HAD NEEDED TO BRAKE AT A HIGHER SPEED ON THE FREEWAY, IT COULD HAVE BEEN DISASTROUS. THE SERIOUS ISSUE IS THAT THIS FAILURE DOES NOT TRIGGER A 'BRAKE FAILURE' LIGHT ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THEREFORE NO WARNING. I LIMPED HOME AND HAD THE CAR TOWED TO THE LOCAL DEALER. THE PROBLEM WAS THAT A PLASTIC TUBE WHICH CARRIES THE ENGINE VACUUM SIGNAL TO THE BRAKE UNIT HAD BECOME DETACHED, THUS NO POWER ASSIST FOR THE BRAKES. THE DEALER REPLACED THE PLASTIC TUBE. I CONTACTED JAGUAR HEADQUARTERS TO INQUIRE ABOUT A BRAKE FAILURE WARNING ALARM FIX FOR THIS PROBLEM, BUT THEY INFORMED ME THAT 'THIS WAS WAY IT WAS DESIGNED. NO FIX POSSIBLE.' *TR

NEW CAR DELIVERED WITH TWO BENT WHEELS. FRONT RIGHT WHEEL ALSO OVAL SHAPED. *TR

THIS OCCURRED NUMEROUS TIMES ON TWO NEW 2010 JAGUAR XFS. AS MY BLUETOOTH CONNECTED PHONE BEGAN TO RING, THE CAR'S TOUCHSCREEN INTERFACE WENT BLANK AND THE HVAC VENTS ROTATED TO THE CLOSED POSITION. I AM NOT SURE IF THE ENTIRE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM WENT DOWN AS THE TOUCHSCREEN IMMEDIATELY REBOOTED AND THE VENTS ROTATED BACK OPEN. I DID NOT NOTICE ANY PROBLEMS WITH BRAKING, ACCELERATION, OR HANDLING. JAGUAR DOES NOT CONSIDER THIS THEIR PROBLEM. THEY ARE TELLING ME THAT MY PHONE IS THE PROBLEM, BUT I FIND IT INTERESTING THAT IT IS AN APPROVED PHONE. I AM GETTING NOWHERE AND FIND IT INTERESTING THAT WHEN RECEIVING A PHONE CALL THAT THE PHONE IS CAPABLE OF TURNING ALL OF THE ABOVE SYSTEMS OFF. CAN SOMEBODY LET ME KNOW IF THEY ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUES AND WHAT YOU ARE DOING? *TR

ON TWO OCCASIONS MY 2010 JAGUAR XF HAS REV'ED TO BETWEEN 3-4,000 RPM'S WHEN COMING TO A STOP. IT TOOK BOTH FEET ON THE BRAKE, THEN SHIFTING TO NEUTREL AND HITTING IGNITION OFF TO STOP THE ENGINE.
