The car just crossed the 100,000 mile mark and I put gas in, car was on empty and turned off, and after about seven gallons of gas, gas started coming out from under the car. I read about the same problem ( safety recall # 06v418000) in the 2005 jaguar s type, that seems to be exactly what this 2000 s type is doing. Dealer says that there is no recall matching my v.I.n. , I feel like its a safety issue and should have been recalled.

This is crazy I see all these complaints through the years about the 2000 s type jag all have the same problems.. Why hasn't there been a recall I just recently experienced the same thing where I had to have my car towed when I first noticed it was right after I bought the car in 2012.now it's been almost going to 3 years and I'm having a this problem was not being able to shift into drive in a park position or even switch from reverse when I'm parked on the incline this is ridiculous, I can't even drive my car. Now with all the complaints that I've been reading about the jaguar s-type it makes me feel like jaguars not concerned about their safety issues while building such a prestigious and very expensive automobile there may concern was getting it out in the showroom to sell for thousands of dollars not including the expensive repairs that it takes to maintain a jaguar.it seems to me the jaguar dealerships be willing to stand behind their product as well as accommodate the safety issues that are clearly a defect on the many factors part because you wouldn't have that many people complaining on a forum about the same issue the same complaint.I do realize that my jaguar is now 15 years old but it still has a whole lot of life in it I have a beautiful jaguar. And I love it I love everything about it but this problem with the gear box shift truly need to be looked into please don't wait for a disaster to happen in these cars if the recall will require them spending millions is so be it because we as a consumer have worked hard in order to get the car of their dreams and that's the case for some people.you would think that to be dealers of a jaguar with stand for some type of integrity and responsibility and be the first to recognize the problem.

I was pulling into a stall at the treasure coast mall when we heard a loud thud when I got out to see what it was I seem that the tire was leaning in and pushed under the fender.I then had to call a tow truck and found out later that the left front ball joint completely snapped off and the right side was badly worn and loose and also had to be replaced. I just hate to think what would happen if that would have happend on the highway me and my wife were very shaken up. The car only has 47000 + which seems really strange for this to happen.
