1. speed control (motion): Cruise control continually shuts off while traveling at highway speeds and hits road patches/bumps. This has happened since I purchased the car new; 2. leather on dashboard (stationary & motion): Car is garaged in NY, meticulously maintained and used occasionally, yet the leather on the dashboard warped/rippled -- not a good look for a Jaguar; recently, I spent almost $ 1,000 for windshield had to be removed/replaced to repair. Now looks worn, though signs of wear remain; 3. usb & communication components in middle dash dept (stationary and motion): These systems failed few weeks after warranty expired. In these days, very important to be able to use, but Jaguar dealer said very expensive to repair. 4. sunroof gasket (stationary & motion): Gasket started failing few years ago, but finally reached extent requiring replacement. My professional upholstery repair provider reported the repair required an entire sunroof system replacement ($1,000), which is very non-sensible. They installed incorrectly and now sunroof will not close while driving, but rather emits loud "fluttering" sound and shakes the vehicle; 5. windows (motion): As you are aware I'm sure, opening partial rear windows induces violent shaking throughout vehicle. This issue present in original design of vehicle. 6. running lights (motion): This vehicle was designed with no running lights, so I tried to find garage to install, for safety reasons. Jaguar service repair providers and others said vehicle design prohibits ability to install running lights. 7. horn (stationary and motion): I'm simply pointing to fact that this beautiful car roars like a lion, yet has wimpy horn sound!

XF 8-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 3,670 miles
Jaguar 2010 Xf. Bought the car in early Oct, 2009. In October and November of this year there were 3 occurrences whereby the car 's transmission failed to go into neutral after the brakes were applied to come to a stop. In each instance the stopping action occurred following a low speed travel : 1st parking into a church parking space, 2nd coming to a stop in bumper to bumper traffic on rte 90 near oak park, ill. And last, and most frightening slipping into a parking space on the 7th. Level of the parking garage facing marshall field in downtown, Chicago. In this last situation the rear wheels spun and screeched while I was pressing the brake pedal as fiercely as I could. I came to just a few inches of the retaining wall. I took the car to the dealer who maintained that the car had been test driven and computer tested without detection of a re-occurrence. The dealer further advised that the computer test results were sent to Jaguar and reported back that the Jaguar people had never had any similar reports. The dealer asked that I retrieve the car as no problem was detected. I believe this car has serious electronic or related problems as regards the connection between braking action and transmission going into neutral after the brakes are applied. A few months before the entire electronics on the dash board had to be replaced as the screen monitor went dead. I do not in my layman's mind know whether there is any connection between these two issues. In any event I refused to go back into that car. I asked the dealer to take it back and I was offered $ 36,000 for the car. I paid $ 59,674 for it just a year or so before. Someone I know suggested that I could have gotten somewhat more by selling it privately, but I did not want to have it on my conscience selling a dangerous vehicle.. the dealer bought it with 3670 miles on the odometer. According to the document, the consumer stated the vehicle would accelerate when coming to a stop. Updated IVOQ 01/19/11
