This has happened to us 3 times where we would have between 17-25 miles left on gas in our car and the vehicle would completely shut down on us; once on the freeway and once on an extremely busy street. Once the car shuts down, we can turn it on in terms of lights, music etc. however the car will not come back on to drive. I-??ve reported this to jaguar in San Francisco more than once and they keep saying it-??s the gas. Our gas never reaches the red line.

The vehicle, which was less than 18 mos old, was at random times having difficulty starting (chugging and hesitating). I took it into the shop, and after one day they said they could not replicate the problem. Then, about a week later I was sitting at a red light in heavy traffic when the vehicle suddenly and unexpectedly shut off. I depressed the brake and pressed the button to start the car, but nothing happened. Then, I pressed it again and it chugged a little. I pressed it again and it chugged and hesitated a bit before starting. The light had already turned green and I was holding up traffic. I was able to drive home and called the Jaguar Land Rover dallas dealership to alert them to the problem and was told they couldn't get to it for at least two to five weeks because they had so many other cars in for service! I did some online research and saw others have had this same issue. It seems to be a problem with the energy saving auto stop/start feature that must be disabled every time one starts the vehicle to render it safe to drive. This is a major safety issue that needs to be investigated and addressed.

Since I purchased this car in June 2017 the electrical system and brake continue to fail the car has been in dealer service since Sept 15. Jaguar seems to think its no big deal. The car just completely installs with no warning putting my self and other people 's lives at risk. This is a huge safety flaw.I have videos but system will not let me attach.
