Open the full vehicle complaint log (all categories)I SAW ON THE NEWS TODAY HOW A LADY WAS ENTERING A RESTAURANT PARKING LOT AND HER VEHICLE SUDDEN LURCHED FORWARD AND CAUSED HER TO CRASH INTO A FENCE. WELL IF THE CAR WAS A JAGUAR S TYPE I'M SURE THE COMPANY WOULD TELL HER WHAT THEY TOLD ME. THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR. I HAD 2004 JAGUAR S TYPE TWICE THE CAR LURCHED FORWARD WHEN I WAS PULLING INTO A PARKING SPOT. I HAD BOTH FEET ON THE BRAKE AND I WAS SHIFTING THROUGH THE GEARS TO GET THE CAR TO STOP. IN ONE INCIDENT THE CAR STOPPED ABOUT 5FT. INTO THE SPOT IN FRONT OF ME. IN THE SECOND INCIDENT I DID THE SAME THING AND THE CAR FINALLY STOPPED WHEN THE CAR GOT HUNG UP ON THE CURB. I FILLED A REPORT WITH JAGUAR IN NEW JERSEY AND THEY SAID MY ONLY RECOURSE WAS TO FILE AN INSURANCE CLAIM???? I BROUGHT THE CAR TO TWO DEALERS AND WAS TOLD THEY WERE TOLD BY JAGUAR NOT TO TOUCH THE CAR BECAUSE THAT WOULD MEAN THAT JAGUAR WAS AT FAULT. I HAD TO TRADE IN THE CAR BECAUSE EVERY TIME I CAME TO A STOP, I DIDN'T KNOW IF I WAS GOING TO CRASH INTO THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. THERE ARE NUMEROUS REFERENCE TO MY INCIDENT ON THE WEB UNDER JAGUAR LURCH. JAGUAR SHOULD BE MADE ACCOUNTABLE AND MADE TO FIX THE PROBLEM WHICH THEY SAY DOES NOT EXIST. THANKS. *TR
VEHICLE EXPERIENCED SUDDEN ACCELERATION WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS APPLIED. TAKEN TO THE DEALER 4 TIMES, BUT THE CAUSE WAS UNDETERMINED.*AK DEALER BLAMES THE CONSUMER FOR THE FAILURE. *TC
