Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Passenger seat belt indicator lights up at random times when my wife is sitting in the passenger seat. (when the light is on, the seat belt will not deploy!) the problem is on going. Jaguar was witness to the failure and has attempted to fix the problem on several occasions. The repair efforts have been unsuccessful and further attempts to have Jaguar correct the problem have resulted in Jaguar claiming that all aspects of the seat are up to design specifications. They refuse further corrective measures. …”
NHTSA complaint #10263738, filed 2009-03, 9,711 miles“Driver's seat completely detached from vehicle frame and was loose from seat frame box. 2004 Jaguar X-Type. Frame was replaced. Appears that there is a series problem with driver's seats on this model. Jaguar has a hidden warranty on the front seat of some vins in this model due to need to shim tracks. Dealer advises that there is no recall on this VIN for front seat issues. Car had approximately 47000 miles on odometer at time of seat frame failure. Obviously a driver's seat which comes loose from its attachment to the vehicle is a severe danger.”
