“I have a live that comes on that says restricted performances and it's so dangerous I was driving on the interstate and soon as that light restricted performance the car lost of power... It don't do any every time I pushed of the gas the car slowed down. The car only have 70,000 miles on it. Is this not a recall on that?”
NHTSA complaint #11277807, filed 2019-11, 70,000 miles“When I attempted to start the vehicle the low-pressure fuel line ruptured spilling approximately 2-5 gallons of gas under the vehicle - creating a massive safety and hazard issue in the shopping center parking lot. If I was actually driving the car when the hose ruptured gas would have spilled over the entire hot engine resulting in fire or possible death.”
NHTSA complaint #11020238, filed 2017-08, 27,225 miles“While driving down I-95 south, a motorist pointed to me and at my vehicle that a problem had occurred. My 2011 XF Jaguar leaked fuel. I pulled off the freeway and stopped the car. After raising the hood, I could see gasoline leaking from the engine. The vehicle totally burned up after having a fuel fire resulting from gasoline leaks. Nothing I could have done to cause this vehicle fire.”
NHTSA complaint #11030550, filed 2017-09, 88,500 miles“My car has a strong gas smell inside and out it is leaking fuel underneath the car when you lift the backseat up the fuel is shooting out, I took the vehicle to Jaguar and they said there is a crack in the fuel pump flange. I called Jaguar corporate office and they stated that there was a recall on that part but my car was never serviced for it. I am not the original owner I have had this car since february 2016.”
NHTSA complaint #11133362, filed 2018-10, 104,000 miles“I have reported this problem about my car stalling, cut off when I turn. I have noticed you have had several complaints for the same issue over and over again. I just went out on the forum. Is someone going to address these issues. Engine/fuel propulsion system/stalling in traffic is dangerous many lives on these dangerous highways. How can my vehicle not be on the list for recall if several owners with the last 8 digit VIN number starting with blr... Please help!”
