I just recently purchased the car from a dealer here in Salt Lake City. But suddenly began to smell fuel mostly in the backseat area inside the car. I decided to investigate and found there is a leak underneath the rear passenger side of the car which appears to be fuel looks like it may be mixed with the little oil hard to say it's a pretty steady drip especially if I'm parked uphill. This is definitely a safety hazard being that it is fuel and could easily cause a fire putting me my family and others at risk. I noticed there was a recall on these vehicles it is a Jaguar XF 2011 but it looks like it has been closed from what I can tell. I'm hoping that that's not the case and we can get this fixed with minimum or no charge thing it was a recall

CURRENTLY THE FUEL TANK IS RUPTURED LEAKING FUEL ON THE GROUND. tHE LEAK IS NOT VISIBLE AS TO WHERE IT IS ORIGINATING FROM. tHE LEAK STOPS AFTER THE CAR SITS FOR ABOUT A HALF HOUR. I HAVE NOT TAKEN THE CAR IN FOR INSPECTION. I DID FIND THAT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THIS POSSIBLE PROBLEM BACK IN 2012 AND WAS WONDERING IF THE MANUFACTURE IS STILL LIABLE FOR THIS PROBLEM EVEN AFTER IT IS FIXED THE FIRST TIME? OTHER THAN THE STRONG ODOR FROM THE FUEL THE ONLY INDICATOR I RECEIVED WAS THE SERVICE SOON LIGHT CAME ON THE DASH. NOT SURE IF THIS WOULD BE COVERED UNDER RECAL 12V521000.

I HAVE REPORTED THIS PROBLEM ABOUT MY CAR STALLING, CUT OFF WHEN I TURN. I HAVE NOTICED YOU HAVE HAD SEVERAL COMPLAINTS FOR THE SAME ISSUE OVER AND OVER AGAIN. I JUST WENT OUT ON THE FORUM. IS SOMEONE GOING TO ADDRESS THESE ISSUES. ENGINE/FUEL PROPULSION SYSTEM/STALLING IN TRAFFIC IS DANGEROUS MANY LIVES ON THESE DANGEROUS HIGHWAYS. HOW CAN MY VEHICLE NOT BE ON THE LIST FOR RECALL IF SEVERAL OWNERS WITH THE LAST 8 DIGIT VIN NUMBER STARTING WITH BLR... PLEASE HELP!

DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD, GET TO A LIGHT OR I AM TURNING- THE CAR TURNS OFF FOR NO REASON. THEN I CUT IT OFF THEN START IT BACK UP. IT RUNS FIND. I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST WEIRD. THEN HAPPENED AGAIN TODAY TWICE. IT STALLS. MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON. WHY IS MY STALLING? DO YOU HAVE ANY DATA FOR ME? I AM TRYING TO FIND OUT WHAT TO DO. I AM GOING TO RESEARCH MORE AS WELL. PLEASE HELP ME!

I CURRENTLY HAVE A MODEL YEAR 2011 XF VEHICLES AND IT IS EQUIPPED WITH A 5.0L GASOLINE ENGINE. IT IS MY UNDERSTANDING THAT THIS ISSUE WAS AFFECTING 2010-2012 XF VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH THE 5.0 L GASOLINE ENGINE. THE AFFECTED VEHICLES MAY HAVE A FUEL TANK FUEL OUTLET FLANGE THAT MAY CRACK. I'M CURRENTLY HAVING THE SAME ISSUE THAT THE RECALL IS SPEAKING OF; HOWEVER, MY VEHICLE IS NOT IN THE CURRENT RECALL. I WANTED TO BRING THIS TO JAGUAR'S ATTENTION FOR CURRENT OWNERS LIKE MYSELF, FOR THE AFFECTED VEHICLES MAY HAVE A FUEL TANK FUEL OUTLET FLANGE THAT MAY CRACK. I THINK THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS RECALL THAT SHOULD BE FOR ALL OF 2010-2012 XF THAT HAVE THIS ISSUE. THIS IS THE INFORMATION THAT IS CURRENTLY POSTED ONLINE FOR JAGUAR'S CUSTOMERS TO SEE, BUT WHEN I CALLED ABOUT THIS RECALL, I WAS INFORMED IT DIDN'T APPLY TO ME EVEN THOUGH I AM AFFECTED.

I HAD MY 2011 JAGUAR RUNNING WHILE I WAIT FOR A LOCKSMITH AND I COULD SMELL FUEL COMING FROM THE VEHICLE MAINLY ON THE SIDE WHERE THE GAS TANK IS LOCATED. ONCE I SAT INSIDE THE VEHICLE I COULD SMELL GAS INSIDE. I LOOKED UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE ON THE GAS TANK SIDE AND I NOTICED A FUEL LEAK ON THE TANK UNDERNEATH. I HAD IT CHECKED AND WAS TOLD THAT IT HAS TO DO WITH WITH THE FLANGE. I READ THAT THERE IS A RECALL BUT WHEN I PUT IN MY VIN- IT STATES NO REPAIRS OR RECALLS. THIS SHOULD BE COVERED.

CAR SHUT OFF WHILE IN MOTION MAKINGA LEFT HAND TURN IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC STARTED POURING FUEL FROM BOTTOM OF THE VEHICLE. THEN BEGAN MAKING A CLICKING SOUND. PETROL WAS RAINING FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE CAR.

VEHICLE SUBJECT TO APPARENT FUEL STARVATION. ENGINE CUTS OUT AND CANNOT BE RESTARTED. SOMETIMES WHEN STATIONARY AND SOMETIMES WHEN MOVING. AFTER A PERIOD OF TIME IT SPONTANEOUSLY RESTARTS, TYPICALLY NEXT DAY. AAA TOWED AND REPLACED THE FUEL PUMP WITH OEM PART, BUT IT DOES NOT HELP. I CAN PROVIDE RECEIPT IF NEEDED. APPEARS TO BE VERY SIMILAR SYMPTOMS TO THE 2010 AND 2013 JAGUAR XF RECALLS, BUT JAGUAR INDICATES THAT MY VIN IS NOT COVERED AND I SHOULD CONTACT THE DEALER AT MY OWN EXPENSE. PERSISTENT PROBLEM...DANGEROUS AND NOT FAIR! THIS HAPPENED 4 TIMES SO FAR, MOST RECENTLY YESTERDAY. CAR HAS APX. 56K MILES ON IT.

MY CAR HAS A GAS LEAK FROM THE TOP SEAL. I SAW WHERE THERE IS A RECALL IN THIS BUT MANUFACTURING COMPANY KEEPS REELING ME IT'S NOT MY VIN THAT THE RECALL IS AFFECTED.

VEHICLE DIED WHILE DRIVING AND WILL NOT TURN OVER. THIS HAPPENED A FEW TIMES BEFORE. MY MECHANIC TELLS ME THAT IT IS THE FUEL PUMP AND THAT THEY WERE ABLE TO START THE CAR BY BANGING UNDER THE CAR NEAR THE FUEL PUMP LOCATION. JAGUAR HAS A RECALL ON THE FUEL PUMP RELAY FOR MY CAR YEAR AND ENGINE, BUT THE JAGUAR NATIONAL HEADQUARTERS SAYS THAT IT DOESN'T APPLY TO MY VEHICLE. SEEMS LIKE A SIMILAR PROBLEM THAT SHOULD BE COVERED BY THEM.

I HAVE A LIVE THAT COMES ON THAT SAYS RESTRICTED PERFORMANCES AND IT'S SO DANGEROUS I WAS DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE AND SOON AS THAT LIGHT RESTRICTED PERFORMANCE THE CAR LOST OF POWER... IT DON'T DO ANY EVERY TIME I PUSHED OF THE GAS THE CAR SLOWED DOWN. THE CAR ONLY HAVE 70,000 MILES ON IT. IS THIS NOT A RECALL ON THAT?

HI FUMES OF GASOLINE ODOR INSIDE THE CAR. AFTER I FOUND OUT THERE HAS BEEN A RECALL FOR FUEL LEAK FOR 2010-2012 MODEL I CONTACTED JAGUAR AND THEY ISSUED A CASE NUMBER ALSO THEY SAID MY VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL BUT THEY RECOMMENDED TO TAKE IT TO A JAG DEALER TO ASSESS THE REPAIR. JAGUAR LATER DENIED ANY FURTHER HELP WITH REPAIR FACILITATION ALTHOUGH I EXPRESSED MY CONCERNS ABOUT THE SAFETY PROBLEM BEING THE SAME AS THE VINS THEY RECALLED!

WHEN APPLYING THE BREAKS ON THE HIGHWAY AND THEN HIT BY ANOTHER CAR FROM BEHIND (LIGHT TO MEDIUM IMPACT) SEAT BELT CAUSED SERIOUS PANCREATIC AND VENOUS INJURIES TO DRIVER.

Crash 1 injured

MY CAR IS LEAKING GAS AND I WAS TOLD BY JAGUAR THAT IT'S NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL ON FUEL LEAKAGE FOR THAT MODEL. HOWEVER NHTSA SAYS THERE IS A RECALL. I CAN SMELL GAS WHILE DRIVING IT AN IT LEAKS OUTS ONCE I STOP. I AM NOT DRIVING IT AGAIN.

THE IN-TANK ELECTRIC FUEL PUMP MAY NOT BE CORRECTLY ACTIVATED AS THE FUEL PUMP RELAY IS NOT ENERGIZED FOLLOWING A VEHICLE STARTUP CYCLE.AN INADEQUATE SUPPLY OF FUEL TO THE ENGINE COULD RESULT. FUEL STARVATION TO THE ENGINE LEADS TO ENGINE STUMBLE FOLLOWED BY ENGINE CUTOUT WITH MINIMAL WARNING AND COULD POTENTIALLY CAUSE A CRASH, I WAS IN MOTION DOING 65 MPH ON A FREEWAY AND THE CAR STOP WITH NO WARNING . I HAD TO TOW IT TO MY HOUSE. A WEEK LATER THE CAR STARTED AGAIN BUT THE MECHANIC ADVISE ME TO REPLACE THE FUEL PUMP BASED ON THE RECALL.

MY CAR HAS A STRONG GAS SMELL INSIDE AND OUT IT IS LEAKING FUEL UNDERNEATH THE CAR WHEN YOU LIFT THE BACKSEAT UP THE FUEL IS SHOOTING OUT, I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO JAGUAR AND THEY SAID THERE IS A CRACK IN THE FUEL PUMP FLANGE. I CALLED JAGUAR CORPORATE OFFICE AND THEY STATED THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON THAT PART BUT MY CAR WAS NEVER SERVICED FOR IT. I AM NOT THE ORIGINAL OWNER I HAVE HAD THIS CAR SINCE FEBRUARY 2016.

ON JULY 20, 2017, AT APPROXIMATELY 6:30 AM, I WAS DRIVING MY 2011 JAGUAR XF IN THE FAR RIGHT LANE ENROUTE TO THE PHILADELPHIA INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT FOR A FLIGHT TO ATTEND MY YOUNGEST SISTER'S FUNERAL. I WAS TRAUMATIZED BY THE SUDDEN MASSIVE FIREBALL AND CAR FIRE, AND THE POSSIBILITY OF MISSING MY EARLY MORNING FLIGHT. THE FIRE STARTED WHILE I DROVE DOWN I-95 SOUTH IN PHILADELPHIA, PA. IT WAS A MOTORIST THAT POINTED TO ME AND AT MY VEHICLE THAT A PROBLEM HAD OCCURRED. I COULD NOT DETERMINE WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS BUT I KNEW THE PERFORMANCE OF MY VEHICLE WAS VERY POOR. ANOTHER INDICATOR OF SOMETHING BEING TERRIBLY WRONG IS THAT I COULD SEE BLUE SMOKE COMING FROM THE HOOD OF MY CAR. I EXITED THE FREEWAY IMMEDIATELY AND STOPPED THE CAR ON ENTERPRISE AVENUE. AFTER RAISING THE HOOD, SUDDENLY AND WITHOUT NOTICE, I COULD SMELL AND SEE GASOLINE LEAKING FROM THE LEFT SIDE OF MY ENGINE. IT DID NOT TAKE LONG FOR THE VEHICLE TO BECOME ENGULFED IN FIREBALL FLAMES FROM GASOLINE LEAKS. I DID NOTHING TO CAUSE THIS VEHICLE FIRE. AT ALL TIMES, I MAINTAINED PROPER SPEED LIMITS AND I ALWAYS CONTINUED PROPER MAINTENANCE RECORDS ON MY VEHICLE.

A DESIGN FAULT OF THIS MAGNITUDE CAUSED THE DRIVER TO LOSE CONTROL OF THE CAR. LUCKILY, A CRASH WAS AVOIDED. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. IMMEDIATELY, MY MOM TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP. AFTER RUNNING CODES AND SPEAKING WITH A REPRESENTATIVE AT THE DEALERSHIP, MY MOM WAS INSTRUCTED TO PAY FOR THIS FAULT MANUFACTURED INTO HER CAR. FURTHER, NO INVESTIGATION WAS COMPLETED TO DETERMINE IF THIS DEPLOYMENT WAS A ONE-TIME OCCURRENCE OR A FAULT IN MULTIPLE CARS.

TAKATA RECALL.

THE JAGUAR DEALERSHIP ADVISED THEY DO NOT HAVE STOCK OF THE NECESSARY COMPONENTS TO REPAIR MY VEHICLE. PARTS ARE NOT EXPECTED TO BE AVAILABLE UNTIL 3/31/2019 WHICH IS OVER A YEAR FROM NOW AND THAT IS UNACCEPTABLE! WHERE CAN I GO TO HAVE IT FIXED IMMEDIATELY?

TAKATA RECALL - I AM FILING THIS COMPLAINT DUE TO THE POOR HANDLING OF THIS RECALL BY JAGUAR CORPORATE. ON 7/29/16 WE RECEIVED A LETTER REGARDING THE RECALL, AND INFORMED THAT THEY WOULD BE FOLLOWING UP WITH A 2ND LETTER AND INSTRUCTIONS. ON 12/6/16, NO LETTER RECEIVED, I CALLED AND S/W "KADAR" IN THE CORPORATE CALL CENTER, AND WAS TOLD A LETTER WOULD BE RECEIVED BY "Q4 2016". NO LETTER RECEIVED BY 1/12/17, AND I CALLED AND SPOKE WITH "KADAR" AGAIN - AND SHE OFFERED ME A "LIKE FOR LIFE" REPLACEMENT - WHICH MEANT REPLACING THE FAULTY AIRBAG WITH ANOTHER FAULTY (BUT NEWER) AIRBAG - TAKATA SUPPLIER HAS NOT GIVEN THEM A DATE ON WHEN THIS WILL BE AVAILABLE. I DIDN'T HEAR ANYTHING BACK AGAIN. ON 10/2/17, WE REACHED OUT TO JAGUAR TO FIND OUT THE STATUS. WE WERE TOLD THAT THE AIRBAGS SHIPPED TO THE DEALERS OVER 2 MONTHS AGO, AND READY TO REPLACE. I AM FRUSTRATED WITH THE POOR COMMUNICATION ON THIS. IF WE HAD NOT REACHED OUT TODAY ON THIS, WE WOULD HAVE NEVER KNOWN THAT THE AIRBAGS WERE AVAILABLE FOR REPLACEMENT. NO ONE AT THE JAGUAR CORPORATE OFFICE SEEMED TO CONCERNED WITH THIS WHEN I COMPLAINED TODAY. I JUST WANTED TO FILE AN OFFICIAL COMPLAINT ON THE LACK OF COMMUNICATION AND VERY POOR HANDLING OF THIS SITUATION BY JAGUAR. THANK GOD NO ONE WAS HURT DUE TO THE DELAYED RESPONSE BY JAGUAR.

WHEN I ATTEMPTED TO START THE VEHICLE THE LOW-PRESSURE FUEL LINE RUPTURED SPILLING APPROXIMATELY 2-5 GALLONS OF GAS UNDER THE VEHICLE - CREATING A MASSIVE SAFETY AND HAZARD ISSUE IN THE SHOPPING CENTER PARKING LOT.
