JAGUAR Complaints

WHILE BRAKING AT ANY SPEED CONSUMER HEARD A SQUEAKING NOISE COMING FROM THE FRONT BRAKE ROTORS. MODEL TYPE XR300. DEALERSHIP WAS NOTIFIED, BUT DID NOT RESOLVE THE PROBLEM.*AK

RECEIVED A MESSAGE "FUEL COMPUTER DATA ERROR" WHEN ATTEMPTING TO USE THE TRIP COMPUTER. DEALER ATTEMPTED REPAIR BE SWAPPING OUT THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER, GENERAL ELECTRONICS MODULE, REAR ELECTRONICS MODULE, PCM AND FUEL SENDERS. PROBLEM WAS NOT REPAIRED. NOW, WHEN ATTEMPTING READINGS AT THE ODBII CONNECTOR, THEY CANNOT COMMUNICATE WITH THE SYSTEM, AND CANNOT FIND THE PROBLEM AFTER MANY HOURS OF LABOR. THE CAR IS DUE FOR ITS STATE INSPECTION IN A FEW WEEKS , AND WILL FAIL DUE TO THE INSPECTION FACILITIES INABILITY TO ACCESS THE ODBII CODES/HISTORY. THE DEALER HAS GIVEN UP TRYING TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE, AND I AM FACING A FAILED EMISSION TEST ON MY UPCOMING INSPECTION.....I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO NEXT, AS JAGUAR CLEARLY WON'T, OR CAN'T RESOLVE THE PROBLEM.*AK

WHILE DRIVING IN A STORM WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOPPED MOVING. CONSUMER HAD VEHICLE TOWED, AND VEHICLE IS SCHEDULED FOR SERVICE.*AK THE WIPER MOTOR WAS REPLACED BY THE DEALER AT NO CHARGE TO THE CONSUMER. *NM

I OWE A JAGUAR S-TYPE IT HAS SEVERAL MECHANICAL PROBLEM. I NOTICED THERE IS NO DATA NO WHERE POSTED REGARDING THIS VEHICLE. (NHTSA,IIHS, OR DOT). NO DATA ANYWHERE ON THE JAGUAR S-TYPE. I THINK THAT SHOULD THROW UP SOME RED FLAG AS TO WHY ARE THEY HIDING SOMETHING? (1) ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS MY WINDSHIELD WIPER FAIL TO OPERATE. THE VEHICLE WAS IN FOR SERVICE, THE MECHANICS STATED THAT THERE WAS A FUSE BLOWN, HOWEVER WHEN THE FUSE WAS REPLACED THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS CONTINUED TO MALFUNCTION. THEY WORK LESS THAN 50 % OF THE TIME NEEDED. (2) I LIVE IN MICHIGAN, ALOT OF SNOW, ICE & RAIN, ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION I WOULD BE DRIVE IN THE SNOW OR RAIN, AND THE WIPERS WOULD JUST STOP OPERATING FOR NO APPARENT REASON. LEAVING ME TOTALLY VISUALLY IMPAIRED. I WOULD HAVE TO TURN ON MY FLASHERS, & PULL OFF THE ROAD, THEN WAIT UNTIL THE RAIN STOPS OR LEAVE THE CAR AND CALL FOR A RIDE HOME. I HAVE LOSS TIME AT WORK BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE, ALSO MISSED SEVERAL APPOINTMENTS BECAUSE OF THIS CONTINUE PROBLEM. (3) ONCE THE FUSE WAS REPLACED FOR THE WIPERS, HOWEVER THE LAST THREE TIMES THIS HAS HAPPEN TO ME. WHEN CHECKED BY A MECHANICS, NO PROBLEM WAS FOUND WITH THE WIPER OR ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, HOWEVER THE WIPERS SEEM TO HAVE A SHORTAGE OF SOME KIND. *NM

VEHICLE EXPERIENCED SUDDEN ACCELERATION WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS APPLIED. TAKEN TO THE DEALER 4 TIMES, BUT THE CAUSE WAS UNDETERMINED.*AK DEALER BLAMES THE CONSUMER FOR THE FAILURE. *TC
