ON JULY 12,2017 MY VEHICLE STALLED AND WOULD NOT START AFTER REPEATED TRIES. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A JAGUAR DEALER WHERE IT STAYED FOR 14 DAYS WHILE THEY TRIED TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM. A NEW FUEL PUMP DRIVER MODULE WAS INSTALLED AND THE DEALER DECLARED THE PROBLEM FIXED. THE MILEAGE ON THE CAR WAS 696 MILES ENTERING THE DEALER AND 724 MILES LEAVING. ON AUGUST 3, 2017 MY VEHICLE STALLED AGAIN AND WOULD NOT RESTART AFTER REPEATED TRIES. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE SAME DEALER WHERE IT STAYED FOR ANOTHER 15 DAYS. THE DEALER STATED THE PROBLEM WAS DUE TO MELTED PINS IN THE FUEL PUMP DRIVER MODULE. THE DEFECTIVE PINS WERE DECLARED REPAIRED AND THE FUEL PUMP DRIVER MODULE RENEWED. MILEAGE ON THE CAR WAS 997 MILES ENTERING THE DEALER AND 1149 MILES LEAVING. IN THE LAST 7 WEEKS, I HAVE ONLY DRIVEN THE CAR ABOUT 100 MILES BECAUSE OF MY LACK OF CONFIDENCE IN IT. A CLAIM HAS BEEN FILED WITH THE BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU.
No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.
Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
Recall repairs are free for as long as the recall stands. Check whether a specific car still has open work at NHTSA's VIN lookup.
