Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“The headlights turn themselves off while I’m driving at night. It’s very scary for a minute or two but I manage to get them back on by manipulating the switch. I mentioned this to the service rep at the Jaguar dealership and his response was “ that’s typical of that car”. It’s been doing this since a purchased the car but is getting worse and dangerous.”
