What owners report
Tl* the contact owns a 2015 jagura XF. The contact stated that the engine stalled while driving. The vehicle was taken several times to the dealer for repair. The dealer performed a diagnostic test, which located a failure code at the fuel system. The low pressure fuel pump was replaced; however, the failure was not corrected. The fuel lever provided the incorrect reading and caused the vehicle to stall. The manufcturer was not notified. The approximate failure mileage was 13,000.
There was a fuel leak caused by a wire containing a hole in the front of the vehicle causing the car to smell like gasoline when sitting inside. Possibly, caused by the top of the car rubbing against the wire, due to insufficient clearance. Service advisor mentioned that this was not due to the owner/driver's fault and it makes the car unsafe to drive due to possibility of a fire. There have been a few recalls by Jaguar concerning this exact issue, but Jaguar says my car is not included simply because my VIN does not match.
I was driving at a high speed. 65 mph and went to accelerate to pass another vehicle and when I pushed the gas there was no power, the steering wheel locked up and I went off the side of the barley missing the ditch and then stopped. The i tried to restart it and the check engine light came of and after a couple attempts I had to have it towed to Jaguar of tacoma. My car is a 2024 with only 46000 miles on it. This shouldn't be happening. I have to other vehicle to drive. I commute for work so I need a reliable car, which I did my research and thought this was one.
Unexplained fire: vehicle was being driven to work. Upon pulling in to the parking lot, driver notices burning smell. Driver parks, bystander approaches driver to alert that the vehicle is on fire. Driver exits vehicle and notices a fire under the passenger side of the vehicle, approximately 1.5ft in diameter. Liquid is spilling onto the ground and catching on fire. Driver proceeds to work security desk to call fire department. Car is now enveloped in flames (~15ft). Fire spreads to vehicle in front of the Jaguar. Fire causes damage to a total of 4 vehicles and the asphalt. Fire department extinguishes the fire and vehicle is towed. The Jaguar was deemed a total loss. The Jaguar had been driven approximately 200 miles since Takata airbag replacement.
There have been constant issues with this vehicle. The car has a strong odor of gasoline when driven. No alarms or indicators tells me that there is a problem. There have been safety recalls on this particular model that have the exact same issues but when checked my vin number is not listed. This needs to be investigated because I believe that this is an continuance of the same issues that has affected the 2013 XF Jaguars.
I own the car and have had it for 3 years well maintenance but I notice when I pump gas it doesn't want to go water leak in the the car when it rain and the fuel g lm from the gas tank leaks and you can smell gas strongly

The dealer was contacted; however, the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 94,000.
