CAR WENT INTO "FAILSAFE" MODE AND LOST ALL POWER AS I WAS MERGING ONTO A HIGHWAY. THIS LOOKS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS AND ALL THE XJ ... 1998 -2003 X308 MODELS. THE TPS HAS A FAULT AND IS NOT REPLACEABLE. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AS IT COMES ON WITH NO WARNING AND NO POWER IS AVAILABLE. *JS

Reading this record
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.
Most recent recall on file: none. Source: NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation.
