Open the full vehicle complaint log (all categories)TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 JAGUAR S-TYPE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS A MASSIVE ANTI-FREEZE LEAK IN THE VEHICLE. THE DEALER DISCOVERED THAT THE RADIATOR WAS CRACKED. AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC REPAIRED THE RADIATOR AND FOUND THAT MOST OF THE COMPONENTS UNDER THE HOOD WERE NOT JAGUAR PARTS. THE PARTS WERE JEEP, CHEVROLET, AND OTHER BRANDS. UPON FURTHER INVESTIGATION, IT WAS REVEALED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS PREVIOUSLY INVOLVED IN TWO MAJOR CRASHES. ON A SEPARATE OCCASION, THE CONTACT FOUND HOLES IN THE RADIATOR HOSES. IN ADDITION, THE WATER PUMP WAS CRACKED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. LATER, WHILE DRIVING LESS THAN 35 MPH, THE BRAKES FAILED. A POLICE OFFICER FLAGGED HER DOWN AND INFORMED HER THAT SMOKE AND SPARKS WERE COMING FROM THE REAR DRIVER'S SIDE TIRE. THE INDEPENDENT MECHANIC STATED THAT THE CALIPER FAILED. THE SYSTEM WOULD NOT ACCEPT THE VIN PROVIDED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 30,000 AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 54,000.
