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 TO DRIVE THE CAR TOO MUCH AS I MIGHT HIT ANOTHER CAR OR A PERSON IF IT HAPPENS AGAIN. THE 2004 JAGUAR X TYPES SHOULD BE RECALLED AS OTHERS HAVE HAD THIS SAME PROBLEM WITH NO SOLUTIONS.

FIRST OFF, CAR HAD ABS LIGHT ON. DEALER REPLACED EVERY ABS COMPONENT. NOW ENGINE AND ABS LIGHT ARE INTERCHANGING ON AND OFF. BELIEVE TO BE A WIRING FAULT. ALSO, TRANSFER CASE HAS GONE OUT TWICE IN 2 YEARS. I HAVE HEARD FROM MULTIPLE SOURCES THAT TRANSFER CASES FAIL OFTEN IN THESE CARS WHICH I BELIEVE TO BE A MANUFACTURERS DEFECT.

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.

CAR SUDDENLY ACCELERATED ON RESIDENTIAL STREET WHY MAKING TURN AT APPROX 15 MPH. HAD TO HIT BREAK WHILE ENGINE WAS STILL ACCELERATING AND THIS SLOWED CAR A LITTLE. THEN WHILE CAR WAS STILL MOVING THREW IT INTO PARK ANDSHUT OFF CAR.IF ANY PEOPLE OR CARS WERE IN FRONT OF ME WOULD OF HAD ACCIDENT. AFTER WAITING A FEW MINUTES I RESTARTED CAR AND PROCEEDED TO MY HOUSE WHICH WAS ONLY A BLOCK AND A HALF AWAY WITHOUT INCIDENT. CAR IS NOW BEING CHECKED OUT BY LOCAL MECHANIC. VERY SCARY.

THE MOTOR WHICH UNLOCKS THE TRUNK DOES NOT WORK. THE ONLY METHOD IN WHICH TO UNLOCK THE TRUNK IS BY KEY SWITCH AND THE MOTOR IS NOT WORKING PROPERLY TO OPEN THE TRUNK.
