On 05/02/2012. I was preparing to park my 2009 jaguar fx, came to complete stop... When it suddenly accelerated, I had the brake on, I could barely hold it back ,it jumped the curb .....I could not stop that car ,it was trying to climb a chain link fence... The only thing that stop the car was when I hit the steel pole...there was $8,200.00 worth of damage done to this car.... My son and I were not hurt ,but we could have been if it would have broke thur that fence... We would have went down a embankment and might of hit a tree, or rolled over.... My husband had it towed to jaguar deal where they said "they couldn't find a think wrong with it".. Now, I have this dangerous car and I'm scared to death to drive it again....

2009 jaguar xf - sudden acceleration issue on three separate occasions. Driving about 20 MPH and the car accelerated - able to stop the car by pressing down fully on the brakes. It did not respond at first and then something shifted and then the brakes worked. With five minutes, it did it again and the only way to stop the car was to slam it into park. The car was towed into the dealer and the black box information downloaded to the manufacturer. No fault codes found and they could not duplicate the problem. It has since done it one more time and the emergency brake stopped the car. The manufacturer is claiming that both the brake and the gas were depressed at the same time.
