2010 JAGUAR XKR (NOTE THAT YOUR FORM LATER ONLY ALLOWS AN XF TO BE CLICKED IN ORDER TO PROCEED SO I DID THAT). ON 2-21-10 CAR 1/2 FULL OF GAS. STARTED CAR AND DROVE TWO BLOCKS WHEN SUDDENLY THE ENGINE SHUTOFF AND AMBER ENGINE SYMBOL ("ENGINE MALFUNCTION") LIGHT CAME ON. ABLE TO MOVE STEERING WHEEL A LITTLE (NO POWER STEERING) AND COASTED TO STOP--DOING ABOUT 30 MILES PER HOUR WHEN THE ENGINE SUDDENLY AND WITHOUT WARNING SHUT OFF. WAITED A COUPLE OF MINUTES AND TRIED TO START AND WOULD NOT RESTART. TRIED TO START AGAIN A MINUTE LATER AND WAS ABLE TO START AND DROVE BACK TO HOME WHERE CAR WAS THEN TOWED TO DEALERSHIP. AUSTIN JAG DEALERSHIP SAID THEY FOUND LOW FUEL PRESSURE CODE, BUT WHEN PRESSURE TESTED THEY FOUND NOTHING AND COULDN'T REPLICATE. THEN TOWED TO HOUSTON JAGUAR DEALERSHIP WHERE PURCHASED FROM AND THEY SAID THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG AND COULD NOT REPLICATE SO SAID NOTHING TO REPAIR. OCCURRENCE IN AUSTIN, TX (HOUSTON GARAGED). PREVIOUSLY, TWO WEEKS BEFORE, SMELLED GAS IN CAR WHEN FILLED UP (AGAIN DEALERSHIP COULDN'T SMELL OR FIND A PROBLEM). *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
ON TWO OCCASIONS OUR 2010 JAGUAR XF HAS COMPLETELY STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC NARROWLY AVOIDING AN ACCIDENT. ON BOTH OCCASIONS WE HAD NO CONTROL OVER THE VEHICLE AS THE SYSTEM COMPLETELY FROZE. AFTER THE FIRST INCIDENT JAGUAR TOOK THE CAR AND REPLACED THE FUEL PUMP AND SOME OF ITS ACCESSORY'S. YESTERDAY THE SAME EVENT OCCURRED AND WE STARTED TO RESEARCH ONLINE TO SEE IF WE COULD FIND ANY OTHER OWNERS EXPERIENCING THIS SAME PROBLEM. THIS IS WHAT WE FOUND; RECALL ID # 09V424000 - FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:DELIVERY RECALL DATE: NOV 02, 2009 COMPONENT: FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:DELIVERY MODEL AFFECTED: XF POTENTIAL UNITS AFFECTED: 2131 RECALL DETAILS RECALL DATE: NOV 02, 2009 MODEL AFFECTED: 2010 JAGUAR XF SUMMARY: JAGUAR IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2010 VEHICLES. THE FUEL TRANSFER PIPE IN THE FUEL TANK MAY BE KINKED. THIS MAY RESTRICTS FUEL BEING TRANSFERRED FROM ONE SIDE OF THE FUEL TANK TO THE FUEL PUMP CAUSING FUEL STARVATION AT LOW FUEL LEVELS. CONSEQUENCE: FUEL STARVATION TO THE ENGINE CAN CAUSE THE ENGINE TO STALL WITHOUT WARNING AND COULD POTENTIALLY CAUSE A CRASH. REMEDY: DEALERS WILL HAVE THE FUEL TANK ASSEMBLY REPAIRED FREE OF CHARGE. THE SAFETY RECALL BEGAN ON NOVEMBER 30, 2009. OWNERS MAY CONTACT JAGUAR AT 1-800-452-4827 1-800-452-4827.
