Example complaints

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

“The exterior door handles have failed on all four doors at least twice and three times on the front driver and passenger dooors. The door handle when engaged will not open thereby creating a major safety issue if a person or persons become trapped and someone tries to open the doors via the exterior door handles. Several repair persons at different locations have all indicated to me that Jaguar is aware of this safety problem but has not tried to correct it. …”
