“February 4, 2009 our s type r Jaguar was the victim of a rapid acceleration/runaway. On february 3 the electronic throttle shut the vehicle off when it was stopped on three or four occasions. The next day, as the vehicle was being driven out of the driveway, the throttle stuck in the open position causing the car to careen out of control. It was towed to hornberg Jaguar in hollywood and the service writer tittered and laughed at my fiance. Thereafter I received a phone call the next day telling me that the vehicle had suffered front-end damage and that we should call our insurance company. …”
