JAGUAR Complaints

MY CAR IS LEAKING GAS AND I WAS TOLD BY JAGUAR THAT IT'S NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL ON FUEL LEAKAGE FOR THAT MODEL. HOWEVER NHTSA SAYS THERE IS A RECALL. I CAN SMELL GAS WHILE DRIVING IT AN IT LEAKS OUTS ONCE I STOP. I AM NOT DRIVING IT AGAIN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2018 JAGUAR X671 (NA). WHILE DRIVING IN THE SNOW, THE SNOW PILED UP UNDERNEATH THE WIPER BLADES AND THE SENSORS STOPPED THE WIPERS FROM WORKING. THE FAILURE CAUSED THE CONTACT TO HAVE POOR VISIBILITY WHILE DRIVING. THE DEALER (CHERRY HILL JAGUAR, 2000 NJ-70, CHERRY HILL, NJ 08003, (856) 424-5300) WAS CALLED AND SUGGESTED THE CONTACT TAKE A VIDEO OF THE OCCURRENCE. THE CONTACT RECORDED A VIDEO AND EMAILED IT BACK TO THE DEALER WHO INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE SERVICE MANAGER WOULD CALL HIM BACK. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 2,930. *TT*JB

I PURCHASED MY JAGUAR USED AND NOTICED A FUEL SMELL AFTER DRIVING IT A COUPLE OF WEEKS. THE DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE FUEL RAIL WHICH HAS NOT CORRECTED THE PROBLEM. AFTER THE RAIL WAS REPLACED, I CONTINUED TO SMELL GAS AND NOTICED FUEL LEAKING UNDER THE REAR PASSENGER AREA OF MY CAR WHEN IT'S SITTING STATIONARY, AFTER BEING DRIVEN. THE DEALERSHIP HAS AGREED IT'S DUE TO A FAULTY (PT# C2Z10550) FUEL TANK OUTLET FLANGE WHICH IS A KNOWN DEFECT/RECALL FOR THIS TYPE OF VEHICLE (J059), HOWEVER THE DEALERSHIP SAYS IT DOESN'T AFFECT MY VEHICLE AS IT WASN'T MANUFACTURED WHERE THE VEHICLE ISSUE ORIGINATED. ALL RESOURCES I HAVE LOCATED SUGGEST MOST OF THE VEHICLES WERE ASSEMBLED IN BROMWICH UK, BUT NOT ALL. I'M SURE MY ISSUE IS RELATED BECAUSE IT EXACTLY MATCHES THE ISSUE DESCRIBED IN THE RECALL AND I NEED HELP GETTING THIS FAULTY PART AND LABOR COVERED BY THE DEALERSHIP. I HAVE ALREADY PAID THOUSANDS ON THE FUEL RAIL REPLACEMENT WHICH MUST NOT HAVE BEEN THE PROBLEM TO BEGIN WITH, SINCE THE SAME PROBLEM STILL EXISTS TODAY. THIS IS A FIRE RISK AND SAFETY ISSUES THAT NEEDS ADDRESSED.

IN 2012 JAGUAR HAD A RECALL ON SOME OF THEIR FX MODEL CARS DUE TO FAULTY FUEL TANK FLANGE ISSUES THAT COULD CAUSE THE CARS TO CATCH FIRE. THE NHTSA CAMPAIGN # WAS 12V521000, THE RECALL # WAS: J027 & THE POTENTIAL NUMBER OF UNITS AFFECTED WAS 4,195. IN THE DOCUMENT I'VE ENCLOSED, YOU'LL SEE THAT MY VEHICLE HAD THE EXACT SAME ISSUE WITH THE OIL LEAK AND CRACKED FUEL TANK FLANGE THAT OTHER CARS WERE RECALLED FOR IN 2012. I INITIALLY NOTICED A STRONG FUEL SMELL IN MY GARAGE AFTER TURNING THE CAR OFF AND CLOSING THE GARAGE DOOR ABOUT 1 WEEKS AGO. MY NEXT DOOR NEIGHBOR ALSO COMPLAINED THAT SHE SMELLED THE GAS FUMES IN HER HOUSE LAST WEEK, BUT NOTICED THAT THEY WENT AWAY AFTER I REMOVED MY CAR FROM THE GARAGE AND PARKED IT OUTSIDE. I CHECKED JAGUAR'S WEBSITE AND ASKED MY JAGUAR SERVICE ADVISOR IF THERE WAS A RECALL ON MY VEHICLE BECAUSE I'D PREVIOUSLY READ ABOUT THE FUEL TANK FLANGE RECALL, BUT BOTH SOURCES DID NOT CONFIRM A RECALL ON MY CAR. I CALLED JAGUAR THIS MORNING WHILE AT THE DEALERSHIP WAITING FOR MY CAR TO BE SERVICED, AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY RECALL WAS VIN SPECIFIC & IT WAS INDEED FOR THE SAME EXACT ISSUE I HAD FIXED TODAY. I'M CONCERNED THAT I WAS DRIVING AROUND IN A CAR THAT JAGUAR HAS KNOWN TO HAVE A SERIOUS ISSUE THAT COULD'VE RESULTED IN MY CAR CATCHING FIRE, YET MINE AND OTHER JAGUARS WHO MAY HAVE HAD OR MAY HAVE THE ISSUE ARE STILL ON THE STREETS. DUE TO THE SEVERITY OF THE MATTER, I WANTED TO BRING IT TO YOUR ATTENTION IN HOPES THAT YOU CAN INTERVENE WITH THIS SERIOUS SITUATION.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 JAGUAR XF. THE CONTACT NOTICED FUEL FUMES COMING THROUGH THE AIR VENTS INSIDE THE VEHICLE. THE ODOR OF FUEL FUMES WAS VERY NOTICEABLE AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO MICH'S FOREIGN CARS (1331 US-70, HICKORY, NC 28602, (828) 324-6012) WHERE THE DEALER STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN A RECALL; THEREFORE, THE CONTACT WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THE REPAIRS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

TAKATA RECALL THE TRANSMISSION SLIPS OUT OF GEAR ALL THE TIME. NOW MY SHIFTIER IS STUCK IN GEAR.THE CAR WILL BE STILL AND IT GETS STUCK. I'VE HAD THIS CAR FOR ALMOST FIVE YEARS AND TOWARDS THE END IT HAS GIVEN ME HELL. TRANSMISSION ALWAYS FAILING WHILE DRIVING NO MATTER ON HIGHWAY OR STREET. THERE'S ALSO A LAG WHEN DRIVING ABOVE 50MPH.

THE IN-TANK ELECTRIC FUEL PUMP MAY NOT BE CORRECTLY ACTIVATED AS THE FUEL PUMP RELAY IS NOT ENERGIZED FOLLOWING A VEHICLE STARTUP CYCLE.AN INADEQUATE SUPPLY OF FUEL TO THE ENGINE COULD RESULT. FUEL STARVATION TO THE ENGINE LEADS TO ENGINE STUMBLE FOLLOWED BY ENGINE CUTOUT WITH MINIMAL WARNING AND COULD POTENTIALLY CAUSE A CRASH, I WAS IN MOTION DOING 65 MPH ON A FREEWAY AND THE CAR STOP WITH NO WARNING . I HAD TO TOW IT TO MY HOUSE. A WEEK LATER THE CAR STARTED AGAIN BUT THE MECHANIC ADVISE ME TO REPLACE THE FUEL PUMP BASED ON THE RECALL.

VEHICLE HAS A FUEL OUTLET FLANGE CRACK IN THE FUEL TANK. IT IS LEAKING GASOLINE FROM THE FUEL TANK.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 JAGUAR XJ. WHILE DRIVING 15 MPH, THE VEHICLE STARTED TO OVERHEAT AND THE ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT COASTED THE VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND HAD IT TOWED TO A TOW LOT. THE VEHICLE WAS LATER TAKEN TO JAGUAR FREEPORT (146 W SUNRISE HWY, FREEPORT, NY 11520, (516) 771-9700) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT A NEW WATER PUMP AND COOLING PUMP NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED AND WAS LATER TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE INTERCOOLER PIPE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 82,903.

TPMS FAILURE. THIS WARNING SUDDENLY APPEARED. CONTACTED JAGUAR AND THEY ARE SAYING THAT THEY ARE HEARING MORE AND MORE ABOUT THEM, HOWEVER, THERE IS NO FIX. THEY RECOMMENDED THAT I GO TO A TIRE SHOP AND HAVE THEM SCAN THE SENSORS, WHICH I DID. THEY SCANNED ALL FOUR SENSORS AND THEY SCANNED AS FINE, HOWEVER, IT SEEMS THAT THE SENSOR SUDDENLY STOPPED COMMUNICATING WITH THE VEHICLE. I CANNOT GET THIS FIXED AND NOT SURE OF WHAT IS GOING O. JAGUAR REFUSES TO LISTEN TO THE ISSUE.
