This is the 3rd time since I have own this vehicle the antifreeze pipes have been replaced. The last time the vehicle warning low battery light came on while driving down the interstate, then everything on the car started shutting down. The car overheated and blew all the fluid lines. According to jaguar of ocala the crossover pipe went bad, again this is the 3rd one replaced. After spending over $5699.00 dollars 6 months later I am noticing the fluid level dropping and we can smell antifreeze. We also had some oil leaks fixed 7 months by a mechanic who specialize in jaguars and the car is leaking again. Its never ending spending money and worried it will catch fire.

Coolant leak caused by bad plastic parts, especially the crossover pipe which was made as a welded together piece. Luckily, I had a warning that my coolant was low and continued to fill the coolant up till I could bring the car in for service and replacement of the water pump and plastic parts as recommended by other owners.

I took my car in for an alignment. After checking under the car, the mechanics realized that the coolant tubing was made of plastic and broke. They stated that if I drove the car, I would be in danger of the car smoking and maybe catching fire. I had to replace the coolant. I was informed the jaguar has changed their engineering of this risk due to the number of complaints and repairs. I also have a 2012 xf and it has the same issue within the same week which is costing me $2200 to replace. This is a serious issue if the coolant issues results is smoking an potential fire of the engine.
