“I brought my car used with warranty and everything was fine even though I barely drove the car because I had another car that I used to commute so I really didn’t drive the car often. Within a week I noticed a loud sound but I didn’t think anything of it because it was a diesel engine. Within a year I was on the freeway and my car just stopped in mid traffic which a semi diesel truck almost hit me due to engine fail”NHTSA complaint, 2017 Jaguar F-Pace owner
“Recurrent coolant leak. Known issue with Jaguar. Coolant system is known to have many weak spots due to plastic tubing and weak coupling joints. Had a repair costing $1500 dollars in 2022 just out of warranty. Now experiencing yet another coolant leak. Other owners have also had multiple leaks. I think Jaguar should be held accountable for a manufacturer defect.”NHTSA complaint, 2017 Jaguar F-Pace owner
