I was driving through Kroger shopping center and I drove between two cars and my car suddenly accelerated and I had to stand on the brakes to avoid hitting a man loading groceries into his car.This was a frightening experience, which I'm afraid will happen again and I won't be so luck.I purchased the car Oct 14 2022 and supposedly have a power train warranty after 1 month and 1000 miles.My name is Craig Donahue, email:[email protected]/cell# 478-787-2446 /address:135 Wexford ct macon.ga 31210 (please help,before someone dies unnecessary!

I have a 2011 Jaguar XJL Supercharged with 65,000 miles that has a knocking noise and is in restricted performance mode. The timing chain and tensioner were replaced by a shop, but that did not fix the issue and I’ve been told there is internal engine damage. The internal engine damage has not been identified. The car itself is in excellent shape, but I don’t know how to proceed to address the internal engine damage as the shop is recommending replacing the engine with a used engine from the salvage yard, but that concerns me as I don’t know the history of the engine from the salvage yard. I've done some research and apparently this is a common issue. Does anyone have any insight on how to proceed with an Arizona recall as this is not normal? Any recommendations will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

A SERIS OF ISSUES PLAQUE THIS MODEL. CHANGED THROTTLE BODY TWICE BUT CAR KEEP SHOWING STABILITY CONTROL NOT AVAILABLE, THROTTLE BODY ACTUATION ISSUES WITH P2119,P2118 CODES AMONG SEVERAL OTHERS. CAR SHAKES AND SHUTS DOWN IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING. AT IDLE, THE CAR REV METER GOES UP AND DOWN AND THEN SHUTS OFF. I HAVE TAKEN THIS CAR TO GALPIN JAGUAR OVER 5 TIMES WITH THE SAME PROBLEM AND EACH TIME THE PROBLEM REMAINS THE SAME. I HAVE SINCE TAKEN IT TO ANOTHER MECHANIC TWO MORE TIMES PAID THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TO REPLACE PARTS AND STILL THE PROBLEM EXISTS. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR LITERALLY MONTHS. EVERYTHING I HAVE BEEN TOLD, I GOT IT FIXED YET, THE PROBLEM STILL EXIST. THESE SET OF ISSUES HAPPENS AT IDLE, WHEN DRIVING ON FREEWAYS, AND CITY STREETS. I HAVE CALLED AAA SO OFTEN I HAVE NO MORE. ANOTHER ISSUE- THE CAR WILL STUCK IN DRIVE GEAR AND STOP AND SHUTS OFF. I HAVE EVEN REPLACED EMC COMPUTER. THE ISSUE STARTED LAST YEAR MARCH BUT STOPPED WHEN I CHANGED THROTTLE BODY AND LASTED ABOUT 6 MONTHS, THEN STARTED ACTING AROUND SEPTEMBER AGAIN AND ITS AT THE MECHANIC NOW AND THEY CANT FIND THE ISSUE STILL.

THIS VEHICLE HAS HAD NUMEROUS"UNUSUAL" ISSUES FROM "STICK-TO-YOUR-FINGERS" CONTROL BUTTONS THAT WERE CHANGED UNDER WARRANTY TO A FAULTY ALARM SYSTEM THAT GOES OFF RANDOMLY ONCE ACTIVATED,TO EXCEPTIONALLY SLOW TOUCH SCREEN FUNCTIONS THAT CAN ONLY BE CONTROLLED VIA TOUCH SCREEN;PLACING DRIVER IN HAZARDOUS SITUATIONS DISTRACTED BY THE SIGNIFICANT DELAY IN RESPONSE' NOT KNOWING IF COMMAND WAS RECEIVED AND PROCESSED.TO INTERIOR UPHOLSTERY:CEILING,HEADLINER COMING UNGLUED AND UNDONE IN A RELATIVELY SHORT PERIOD OF TIME (5 YRS) WITH PARTICLES COMING FROM GLUE/FOAM POLLUTING THE INTERIOR AIR CAUSING BREATHING PROBLEMS;WHILE THE MANUFACTURER DESTINED THE VEHICLE TO A HOT & HUMID DESTINATION.TO THE MAJOR 2 CATASTROPHIC GAUGE/SENSOR FAILURES:THE WATER PUMP BREAKING ,WHICH MAYBE OK, BUT WHEN THE CAR TEMPERATURE GAUGE DOESN'T SHOW AN INCREASE IN OPERATING TEMP AND STAYS DEAD CENTER AT NORMAL OPERATING TEMPERATURE AND YOU DRIVE IT SO YOU CAN GET TO SAFETY OF YOUR HOME SINCE IT IS NOT "OVER-HEATING" AND THE STEERING WHEEL SEIZES ON YOU. YOU ASK THE DEALERSHIP AND A VAGUE COVER-UP ANSWER RIDDEN WITH HESITANCY,GUILT & A SENSE OF "OH,ITS NORMAL FOR THE CAR!" AND NO REMEDY OFFERED OR ISSUED (MAYBE I SHOULD TOUCH THE ENGINE TO MAKE SURE ITS NOT OVERHEATING?!). AND NOW THIS EPISODE:THE 2ND CATASTROPHIC GAUGE FAILURE:THE VEHICLES OIL IS AT 25% CAPACITY (ONLY 25% FULL) NO OIL POOL UNDER THE CAR AT ANY TIME JUST A FEW LIQUID DROPS OF WHAT SEEMED TO BE AC CONDENSATION. THE CAR DOESN'T SHOW AN OIL PRESSURE DROP WARNING OR OVERHEATING OR ANY RELATIVE WARNING. MIND YOU THE VEHICLE DOES NOT HAVE A "DIP-STICK" TO CHECK OIL LEVELS. THE ONLY WARNING IS A SERVICE REQUIRED STATEMENT THAT IS PRE-PROGRAMMED AT CERTAIN INTERVALS BY THE MANUFACTURER. EVEN IF I DID NOT CHANGE THE OIL EXACTLY ON TIME AND I'M A BIT LATE,NO WARNING ABOUT LOW OIL CONTENT/LOW OIL PRESSURE. DOCUMENTATION AVAILABLE. *TR

THE CAR SHUTS OFF RANDOMLY WHILE DRIVING IN MOTION ON CITY STREETS AND HIGHWAYS . THIS IS MY SECOND JAGUAR THAT DOES THIS. THIS HAS HAPPENED FOR THE 5TH TIME SO FAR. *TR

TAKATA RECALL - JAGUAR AND/OR TANAKA SHOULD BEAR THE FINANCIAL COST TO GET OUR UNIT TO A JAGUAR DEALER. THIS IS THEIR SERIOUS DEFICIENCY. WE LIVE AT LEAST 150 MILES FROM A JAGUAR DEALER AND IT IS PATENTLY UNFAIR FOR US TO HAVE THE FINANCIAL AND LOGISTICAL. BURDEN. IT IS NOT AS IF WE ARE ASKING FOR UNREALISTIC COST, LIKE RENTAL CAR.
