| 2010 | SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC | 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 |
| 2013 | SUSPENSION | ON SEPT 27, 2013 AROUND 7A.M., I DROVE MY CAR TO THE MAIL BOX WHERE I PULLED OVER ON A ROAD WITH A SLIGHT INCLINE AND UP ON THE ROUNDED CURB, PUT IT IN PARK, OPENED THE DOOR, WALK ALONG THE SIDE OF THE CAR, CROSSED IN FRONT TO RETRIEVE MY MAIL. AFTER GETTING MY MAIL, WHEN I TURNED AROUND TO GO BACK TO THE CAR, I SAW IT DRIVING FORWARD AND CROSSING THE ROAD TOWARDS THE OTHER SIDE! INSTINCTIVELY I JUMPED IN THE PASSENGER SIDE AND WAS TRYING TO REACH THE BRAKE PEDAL WHEN THE CAR HIT THE CURB, THROWING ME BACK A BIT. THE IMPACT OF THE CURB MUST HAVE TURNED THE WHEELS TO THE LEFT AND THE CAR PROCEEDED DOWN AN EMBANKMENT AND HIT A TREE WHICH FINALLY STOPPED THE CAR. I CONTEST THAT THE CAR COULD NOT HAVE ORIGINALLY BEEN IN DRIVE WHEN I GOT OUT OF THE CAR TO RETRIEVE MY MAIL AS I WALKED IN FRONT OF IT. I BELIEVE THE GEAR POPPED OUT OF PARK AND VOLUNTARILY WENT INTO DRIVE WHILE I WAS RETRIEVING MY MAIL. *TR |
