Idles too high.
Engine fan stays on.
A/C unit doesn't blow heat.
Returned to service twice for jerking of car.
Ash tray door stays open.
Car beginning to overheat.
Right Boot message came on.
Erratic gear shifting.
Gear Box message came on.
The trunk will not automatically open using the switch or key. It gets stuck... I paid $70 to get it fixed during the warranty period and it still sticks.
Interior car roof fabric coming loose and hanging. I can't let my windows down for fear that a draft will make it worse.
Left driver's window stop midway while going up.
All of the problems every customer has been saying as happened to my car.
I will NEVER purchase another Jaguar ever in this or my next lifetime!!!
I would absolutely love to join anyone on a lawsuit.
This car's model and year is a total lemon! They should be recalled.
I own a 2002 S Type and have experienced the same problems as the previous owner:
The air conditioning doesn't cool and the heating system does not heat. I have taken the vehicle in 3 times in less that 2 months for this complaint and it is still not corrected.
I had to have the power window replaced, the trunk latch replaced for sticking, and now there is a problem with the front end suspension.
I had to obtain a lawyer before the dealership would honor the manufacturer warranty repairs: including the previously mentioned repairs and the Manifold O Rings (Transmission), Electronic Gear Cable, and Evaporated Heat Sensor.
Now when I place the car in Park, the gear indicator shows Reverse... I have to shift back into drive, then shift back into Park. Oh,...the paint is literally falling off the front and rear bumpers, and the dealership insists that this certified preowned Jaguar has never sustained in body damage. They are refusing to correct that problem as well. I have owned this vehicle less than 1 yr. and it has 58,680 miles. I have only driven the vehicle 8,400 miles in 11 months!!!
My 1996 Van den Plas was a much better car than this piece of junk. I have received no response from Jaguar North America and the Jaguar service dept could care less. I spend at least 2-3 days per week dropping off and picking this vehicle up from service dept. Check this out, the dealership charged me for a rental car for 3 days out of the 6 days they kept car and refused to make repairs. That was the last straw, I got an attorney!
