DT*: THE CONTACT STATED THE VEHICLE'S STEERING WAS VERY LOOSE AND THE WHEELS FELT AS IF THEY WERE SHAKING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DETERMINED THE BALL JOINTS ON BOTH SIDES NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A JAGUAR DEALER WHO ALSO DETERMINED THE BALL JOINTS WERE WORN OUT AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THERE IS AN NHTSA RECALL, # 00V359002, REGARDING THE SUSPENSION: FRONT: CONTROL ARM: LOWER BALL JOINT. THE VEHICLE HAS THE SAME PROBLEMS AS INDICATED IN THE RECALL; HOWEVER IT IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL DUE TO THE VIN.

I OWN A 2001 JAGUAR S TYPE. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO LOWER THE LEFT FRONT PASSENGER WINDOW, IT FELL INTO THE DOOR AND WOULD NOT COME OUT (IT IS POWER DRIVEN). I HAD TO DRIVE AROUND FOR 3 DAYS WITH THE WINDOW DOWN. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME IT WAS A BROKEN WINDOW REGULATOR. THEY REPLACED THE REGULATOR SINCE MY VEHICE WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY.

DEMAND FOR RECALL AND REPAIR OF DEFECTIVE BALL JOINT FRACTURE ON THE 2001 JAGUAR S TYPE.***NO ANSWER REQUIRED*** . *MR WHILE PULLING OUT A PARKING LOT THE VEHICLE RIGHT FRONT TIRE SUDDENLY WENT SIDEWAYS AND REMAINED STUCK IN THAT POSITION. THE BALL JOINT NUT ATTACHED TO THE WHEEL ASSEMBLY HAD COME LOOSE AND AS A RESULT THE VEHICLE COULD NOT BE DRIVEN. THE CONSUMER FOUND RECALL 00V-359002 ON THE INTERNET, WHICH DESCRIBED THE FAILURE THE CONSUMER EXPERIENCED. THE DEALER WAS NOTIFIED BUT WAS INFORMED THAT HIS VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED DUE TO VIN. *NM
