What owners say
I am reporting a safety defect on a 2018 Jaguar F Pace involving the failure of factory-installed plastic engine components (specifically [mention parts, e.g., coolant crossover pipes/housing]). These components are prone to cracking and rupturing, which has resulted in multiple severe fluid leaks. Safety Risk: These leaks pose a significant fire hazard as fluids are dripping directly onto high-heat engine surfaces and exhaust components. Furthermore, a sudden failure of these plastic pieces while driving can lead to immediate engine overheating and a total loss of power (stalling), which places the driver and passengers at risk of a high-speed collision. My car started smoking in the middle of the highway. Manufacturer Knowledge: Jaguar Land Rover acknowledged the defect by redesigning these specific parts in 2022. However, they have failed to issue a safety recall for 2018 models equipped with the original, defective components. My vehicle currently requires over $4,000 in repairs to address the damage caused by these failing parts. This issue mirrors previous Jaguar fire-related recalls and suggests that the current recall scope is insufficient to protect the public.
Lost power steering during heavy rain. Power steering rack in 2018 Jaguar Fpace has crack that has caused water ingest.
The first issue is the camshaft issue that had a recall on there and i was unaware because there wasn’t any notification sent by Jaguar or the federal safety agency. When starting the vehicle it’s very hesitant and has a rough start & idle. Even once the vehicle starts it continuously has a rough feel as if the vehicle is putting or about to cut off. 2. The vehicle constantly loses power and sometimes won’t start. The battery has been replaced and the wires have been tested. When driving the entire vehicle starts to intermittently lose power and everything flickers on and off the entire time. 3. When searching my vehicle information it indicates there’s no open recalls however according to Jaguar corporate office there is an open recall but it’s not displayed on any search because the federal safety agency hasn’t notified them.
Vehicle will lose power intermittently while driving and sometimes when you try to start the vehicle it will be come dead. I’ve replaced the battery and the problem still occurs. A few nights in a row the alarm system would just beep for no reason . I changed the key fob battery and that didn’t help either. The engine makes a weird noise and constantly jerks.also the engine shakes extremely bad even though I’ve had a tune up, I’ve called Jaguar consumer services to find out about past recall details and was advised that information wasn’t available to them if the services were actually completed or just cleared out & I’d have to call the service center that completed the recall/repairs. It’s impossible to do so as I’m not the original owner. Jaguar advised they couldn’t help and this is very common for the power train in these vehicles to malfunction however the manufacturer isn’t being accountable. Also when I checked the recalls on the federal safety agency & Jaguar websites It indicated there’s no recalls, however when I called Jaguar consumer services I was advised of 2 recalls/campaigns that relate to the engine light. I’ve had a similar issue with a Range Rover that we checked for recalls and they were cleared from under the vin but the service wasn’t performed and when we experienced the issue we were charged on 2 occasions and once I discover the issue previously had a recall they refunded one of the issues, they’re all under the same umbrella and truly need to be investigated. I hope more people learn about reporting these issues to the federal safety agency and other outlets instead of just reporting to Jaguar because they truly only want to get money out of the situation and don’t want to be accountable for the defects of there vehicles.
