RESEARCHED ONLINE AND IT SEEMS TO BE A KNOWN ISSUE HOWEVER WHEN I CONTACTED A JAGUAR DEALER IN SCOTTSDALE THEY STATED THERE IS NO RECALL FROM MY VAN NUMBER. THIS IS A SERIOUS AND DANGEROUS ISSUE WHICH IN TIME WILL COST SOMEONE THEIR LIFE IT SHOULD BE PLACED ON A RECALL FOR ALL KNOWN VEHICLES WITH THIS ISSUE AND MORE.

ACCELERATOR PEDAL APPEARED TO STICK. WHEN PEDAL WAS RELEASED, ENGINE DID NOT THROTTLE DOWN, RESULTING IN REVS REMAINING AT PREVIOUS LEVEL, AND SPEED UNCHANGED. WHEN DRIVEN ON THE HIGHWAY, THIS MEANS THAT SPEED REMAINS AT 55 EVEN WHEN ACCELERATOR PEDAL IS NOT DEPRESSED. SOMETIMES, RUNAWAY ACCELERATION OCCURS. I TOOK VEHICLE TO MY MECHANIC. HE REBUILT THE THROTTLE BODY. PROBLEM UNSOLVED. HE THEN DID SOME RESEARCH AND FOUND THAT THERE WAS A DEFECTIVE DESIGN FOR THE 1996 THROTTLE BODY, WHICH WAS SUBSEQUENTLY CHANGED. HE INSTALLED THE NEW DESIGN, AND THE PROBLEM WENT AWAY. I REPORTED IT TO JAGUAR USA. THEY SAID BECAUSE THE VEHICLE WAS OUT OF WARRANTY, THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO, BUT THEY WOULD SEND ME $100 "BOUTIQUE DOLLARS" AS A GIFT. INCIDENT DATE IS APPROXIMATE. *TR

BRAKES (SOFT BRAKE PEDAL) WHEN PRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL IT GOES TOO CLOSE TO THE FLOOR. THIS SUPPOSEDLY HAS BEEN ADJUSTED BY THE TECHNICIAN. HOWEVER SERVICE STATES THAT THIS IS NORMAL FOR THIS TYPE OF CAR AND THE PROBLEM STILL EXISTS.*AK

TRANSMISSION (LIMP HOME MODE). COMING TO A STOP EXITING THE RAMP THE CAR SHUTS OFF, AND WHEN STARTED AGAIN THE TRANSMISSION LIGHT IS ON, AND LIMP HOME MODE. THIS WAS TAKEN IN FOR SERVICE AND THE TECHNICIAN SAID NO CODES WHERE PRESENTED IN THE COMPUTER TO INDICATE A PROBLEM THERFORE THEY RESET IT AND SAID IT JUST BEACUSE OF A SUDDEN STOP.*AK

REAR END (DIFFERENTIAL) PROBLEM. WHEN DRIVING AT ABOUT 40 MILES AN HOUR YOU CAN HEAR A ROARING NOISE FROM THE REAR END (SOUNDS LIKE A TRUCK INSTEAD OF A LUXURY VEHICLE). THIS SUPPOSEDLY WAS FIXED BY PRIOR SERVICE, HOWEVER THE PROBLEM STILL EXIST AND SERVICE TECHNICIAN ADMITTEDLY HEAR THE SAME NOISE THAT AGAIN HAS BEEN REPORTED OVER AND OVER SINCE PURCHASING THE CAR.*AK

ACCELERATOR STICKS. THIS HAS BEEN REPEATEDLY REPORTED TO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT THAT SERVICES MY CAR AND I REPORTED IT TO JAGUARUSA.
