2015 Jaguar Xj Problems

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 JAGUAR XJ. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE HIS WIFE WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 20 MPH, THE VEHICLE INDEPENDENTLY ACCELERATED TO APPROXIMATELY 50-60 MPH. THE CONTACT STATED THE DRIVER APPLIED THE BRAKES HOWEVER, THE BRAKES FAILED TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THE DRIVER KEPT THE BRAKE PEDAL DEPRESSED UNTIL THE VEHICLE FINALLY CAME TO A STOP. THE CONTACT WAS UNSURE IF THERE WERE ANY WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT HAD NOT CONTACTED THE DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 34,900.

I WAS CALMLY DRIVING SLOWER THAN 35 MPH ON A CITY STREET WHEN THE CAR SUDDENLY SLOWED DOWN AND STOPPED RESPONDING TO THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL. WHEN I TRIED TO STEP ON THE GAS I HEARD A BIG EXPLOSION-LIKE SOUND. THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN THE CAR ACCELERATED TO WHAT SEEMS LIKE OVER 100 MPH AND THE BREAKS DID NOT WORK DESPITE ME PRESSING THE BREAKS SEVERAL TIMES. I SHOT INTO 3 CARS AHEAD OF ME THAT WERE AT THE RED LIGHT. THE OTHER CARS RECEIVED SUBSTANTIAL DAMAGE; I SAW THAT OTHERS WERE INJURED. MY CAR WAS COMPLETELY DAMAGED/CRUSHED IN THE FRONT AND A FIRE HAD BROKEN OUT. THE AIRBAGS HAD DEPLOYED AND I WAS PRETTY MUCH PINNED TO THE SEAT. I HAD BOUGHT THE CAR FROM THE DEALER BRAND NEW AND HAD IT REGULARLY SERVICED AND MAINTAINED. I WAS THE ONLY DRIVER AND IT HAD ONLY 30000 MILES OVER 3 YRS.

MY 2015 JAGUAR XJ , WHICH WAS IN PARK GEAR - WITH ENGINE RUNNING, STARTED ROLLING BACK ON THE DRIVEWAY IN A DANGEROUS AND UNEXPLAINED FASHION AND ALMOST HIT MY KIDS AND I. THERE WAS NO-ONE IN THE CAR, AND I WAS ABLE TO BRING THE CAR TO A STOP BY JUMPING IN AND SLAMMING THE BRAKES. THE CAR WAS ROLLING, NOT SLIDING. THE SURVEILLANCE CAMERA CAUGHT THIS SCARY MOMENT AND YOU CAN VIEW THAT AT THE LINK BELOW HTTPS://DRIVE.GOOGLE.COM/FILE/D/1_NFUQM9JZBIFLLVDKF7-H5YU2OD6OO0F/VIEW?USP=DRIVESDK

Tire size 275/40/ZR 19. Unexpected tire wear. Have replaced twice in one year. Each set lasting about 5k miles. Current set lost air without puncture. All tread gone. verified proper inflation and appropriate driving style on AWD vehicle. Front tires are different size and appear to have held up better. Last incident led to flat tire and the need to change to spare on the side of a highway

EARLY ONE MORNING WE FOUND OUR CAR ENGULFED IN FLAMES. FIRE APPARENTLY STARTED IN TRUNK AREA, WHERE BATTERY IS CONTAINED. THE CAR HAD NOT BEEN DRIVEN THAT DAY. FIRE 'INVESTIGATION' REVEALED NOTHING. CAR WAS A TOTAL LOSS. THIS MODEL HAD A RECALL THAT WAS SUPPOSEDLY FIXED 5 WEEKS PRIOR TO MY CAR BEING MANUFACTURED. I DON'T BELIEVE IT IS TRULY FIXED. NO ONE--NOT INSURANCE, JAGUAR OR DOT HERE SEEMS TO CARE A CAR BURST INTO FLAME AND WAS A 100K LOSS! IT WAS COMPLETELY DESTROYED. I FEEL THIS IS DANGEROUS FOR OTHER 2015 XJL SUPERCHARGED OWNERS. IF I'D BEEN DRIVING, I COULD HAVE EASILY PERISHED OR CAUSED A MAJOR INCIDENT ON A HIGHWAY INVOLVING OTHERS.
