FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:STORAGE:TANK ASSEMBLY:FILLER PIPE AND CAP

ON CERTAIN PASSENGER VEHICLES, WHEN REPLACE THE FUEL FILLER CAP TO THE VEHICLE'S FUEL TANK FILLER NECK, IT IS POSSIBLE TO OVER-TIGHTEN THE CAP INDUCING A POOR SEAL. IN THE EVENT OF A VEHICLE ROLL-OVER, IT IS POSSIBLE FOR FUEL TO LEAK PAST THE FUEL FILLER CAP.

IN THE JUST OVER 3 YEARS THAT I HAVE OWNED THIS CAR I HAVE HAD 2 INCIDENTS WHERE THE CAR ACCELERATES AND ENGINE RACES WHEN BRAKING AT A LOW SPEED MAKING A TURN ON A SIDE STREET. I TRY TO BRING THE TO A STOP BUT IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO DO AS THE BRAKES ARE NOT FULLY STOPPING THE CAR AND BOTH TIMES I HAD TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK QUICKLY IN OTHER TO COMPLETELY STOP IT WHICH BROUGHT IT TO A JERKING HALT. THERE IS SOME DEFECT IN THIS MODEL AS I HAVE SEEN NUMEROUS SIMILAR STORIES ON A JAGUAR PROBLEMS WEBSITE. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS PROBLEM AND I WAS LUCKY BOTH TIMES TO BE ON SIDE STREETS AS A SERIOUS ACCIDENT WAS AVOIDED AS I IT TOOK ME A FEW SECONDS TO BRING THE CAR TO A STOP AS I DID NOT HAVE FULL CONTROL OF CAR. I TOOK THE CAR TO MY LOCAL JAGUAR IN GLEN COVE NY IN JULY AND THEY COULD NOT REPLICATE THE INCIDENT AND HAD NO IDEA WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS. LIKE I SAID AT THE BEGINNING THIS ONLY HAPPENED TWICE IN 3 YEARS BUT I ONLY DRIVE 1000 TO 2000 MILES A YEAR AND TO TELL YOU THE TRUTH I AM AFRAID

I HAVE A 2004 X-TYPE JAGUAR AND THE AIR BAG LIGHT ON THE DRIVERS SIDE WILL NOT GO OFF. I HAD IT CHECKED OUT ONLY TO FIND OUT THAT SHOULD I GET IN AN ACCIDENT THE AIR BAG WILL NOT DEPLOY. THE DEALERSHIP WANTS AROUND $1500.00 TO REPAIR IT. I AM HOPING IT IS A RECALL.

MY JAGUAR X-TYPE 2004 CAR WHEN TRAVELING AT ABOUT 25-30 MPH ALTERNATELY GETS SLUGGISH AND SLOWS OR REVS UP, CAUSING ME TO APPLY BRAKES HARD TO PREVENT COLLISIONS. I HAVE TO ALLOW ENORMOUS SPACE BETWEEN ME AND THE VEHICLE AHEAD BECAUSE I AM AFRAID OF COLLIDING WITH VEHICLES IN FRONT. ALSO HAVE TO BRAKE HARD TO TO OVERCOME THE SURGING FORTH OF THE ENGINE. THE CAR WILL ALSO REV UP WHEN I AM PARKING IT. THESE ARE SUCH COMMON OCCURRENCES, AND IT SEEMS TO BE A MANUFACTURING MALFUNCTION. JAGUAR SHOULD RECALL ALL 2004 X-TYPES TO FIX THESE DANGEROUS AND POTENTIALLY LIFE THREATENING MACHINES. I REQUEST THAT THE NHTSA IMMEDIATELY FOLLOW UP AND REQUIRE RECALL OF THESE ROAD HAZARDS. THANK YOU.

THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM. I HAVE SPENT THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS IN AN ATTEMPT TO FIX THE LOW SUSPENSION PROBLEM. MY CAR HAS SLOWED DIRECTLY ON THE EXPRESSWAY WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH. IN ADDITION, THE CAR WAS SO LOW THAT IT DRUGGED THE BOTTOM. THE ONLY SOLUTION WAS TO HAVE IT TOWED. THIS PROBLEM HAPPEN LAST YEAR AND I HAD TO RENT A CAR ALL WINTER LONG UNTIL THE WHETHER WARMED UP. I THOUGHT THE PROBLEM WAS RESOLVED BUT IT STARTED AGAIN WITH LOW TEMPERATURE OF 30 DEGREES. JAGUAR SHOULD REFUND OUR MONEY FOR THIS PROBLEM BECAUSE THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN A RECALL. *TR
