“Rear brake issue. Took my 2009 XF to the dealer for an oil change. I was informed that the rear brakes were gone and the tires needed to be replaced. I was informed by the dealer that the rear brakes are lucky to get 7500 miles. It just the way it is . I had the brakes changed & took the car to a high performance alignment shop. 1st we found the dealer never aligned the tires even though they were paid by jag to do so next he discovered that the emergency brake never completely releases & that's why your burning out brakes. …”
NHTSA complaint #10345017, filed 2010-07, 1,200 miles“Had my 2009 Jaguar XF to dealer for scheduled service on 2-18-10. Car had 12,000 on it. Discovered rear disc brake pads were worn out needing replacement. Front pads looked just fine. Rear pads should not degrade in only 12,000 miles. Was told this is normal as the rear brakes handle most of the stopping power. My understanding has always been it's the front brakes which do most of the work. This car does not have a built in warning indicating the pads are worn, and losing the rear brakes prematurely could result in an accident. …”
NHTSA complaint #10312545, filed 2010-02, 12,000 miles“The life of a Jaguar XF 2009 discs are less than two years. We send it to the Jaguar service and they said the model that year didn't came with sensor that is why the disc gets damage. The problem is the customer doesn't know when the pads have to be change because it doesn't make the noise to tell you the pads and the disc are failing. In our case they change are pads and disc and in less than three month the disc are scratch and damage because of the pads. Very important we had to pay $800.00 they said that it is not in warranty. And the pads to and the car only ran 2,000 miles. …”
NHTSA complaint #10336910, filed 2010-06, 12,240 miles“2009 Jaguar XF - when brake pedal is depressed, it goes past the accelerator pedal causing the foot to hit the accelerator and the brake at the same time. More pressure on the brake causes more pressure on the accelerator. Has happened three times at very low speeds during parking. Jaguar says they are aware of the problem but there's not a fix. Be careful they say.”
