JAGUAR Complaints

I PULLED UP TO STOP AT A RESTAURANT CURB AND STOPPED THE VEHICLE. THE ENGINE SUDDENLY RACED TO APPROX 6000-6500 RPM. I WAS ABLE TO KEEP MY FOOT FIRMLY ON THE BRAKE, SHIFT THE TRANSMISSION INTO PARK, AND TURN THE ENGINE OFF. WHEN I RE-STARTED THE ENGINE EVERYTHING WAS FINE. I DID' NOT THINK TOO MUCH OF THIS, OUTSIDE OF SCARING THE HELL OUT OF ME, AS I THOUGHT MY FOOT MIGHT HAVE SLIPPED OFF THE BRAKE AND ON TO THE ACCELERATOR. ABOUT ONE WEEK IT HAPPENED AGAIN AS I WAS PULLING UP TO A STOP BEHIND A VEHICLE THE ENGINE STARTED RACING AGAIN. AGAIN I WAS ABLE TO SOP, WITHIN 2 FEET, OF THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. THE VEHICLE IS NOW AT THE JAGUAR DEALERSHIP, MARKEL, IN OMAHA, NE. JAGUAR CARS IN NEW JERSEY ([XXX]) JUST INFORMED ME THAT IT IS A TRANSMISSION PROBLEM AND JAGUAR WOULD NOT ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY FOR A POSSIBLE SAFETY DEFECT. THEY OFFERED TO REPAIR IT FOR $7,500. I BELIEVE THIS IS A POTENTIAL SAFETY ISSUE AND WILL NOT DRIVE IT UNTIL IT IS REPAIRED. JAGUAR APPARENTLY DOES NOT AGREE WITH ASSESSMENT AND REFUSES TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE DEFECT.
