2005 JAGUAR XJR

AFTER 15-20 MINUTES OF HIGHWAY DRIVING, VEHICLE SUDDENLY SWITCHES INTO "RESTRICTED PERFORMANCE" SHOWING THIS AMBER LIGHT INDICATOR AND AMBER ENGINE LIGHT. SEVERAL TIMES BECAUSE OF THE DRAWBACK IN SPEED, I HAVE BEEN ALMOST REAR-ENDED. THIS PROBLEM IS PUTTING MY LIFE AND OTHERS ON THE HIGHWAY IN DA... NGER. THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN A PROBLEM WITH MY CAR FOR OVER 3 YEARS NOW WITH MANY APPOINTMENTS TO JAGUAR SERVICING FOR REPLACEMENTS; TO INCLUDE COOLANT PUMP AND THROTTLE BODY; YET, THE PROBLEM STILL CONTINUES. I BELIEVE THE PROBLEM IS A DEFECT OF THE ENGINE. THIS SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED AND LISTED AS A RECALL.Read more

WHILE MERGING INTO THE FAST LANE ON THE HIGHWAY THE CAR GOES INTO LIMP MODE AND I NEARLY GOT REAR ENDED BY A TRUCK . AFTER PRECARIOUSLY MAKING IT TO THE SHOULDER ( ALMOST GOT HIT BY ANOTHER CAR )THE CODES ALL CLEARED AND CAR RESUMES AS NORMAL. I TAKE IT IN TO THE DEALER AND HE TELLS ME ITS POSS... IBLY THE THROTTLE BODY BUT HE IS NOT SURE . LOOKING ONLINE I FIND MANY XJR'S WITH THE SAME ISSUE AND ALMOST FATAL CONSEQUENCES DUE TO JAGUAR'S COMPLETE NEGLIGENCE TO RECALL AND FIX THEIR MISTAKES. THE PART IS OBVIOUSLY NOT CORRECTLY ENGINEERED - THEY SHOULD DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT BEFORE SOMEONE GETS KILLED . *TRRead more
