To the best of my ability id like to explain why my car does not operate . i have taken my car to two jaguar dealership and have talked to Rocco' s European car repair shop as well and the all say that what is defective with my car is the central junction box. When I asked them all as to why this does not function they all said its a known problem with the car specifically due to "water ingress" leaking from the windshield wiper pump and on to the underside of the Central junction box and my wires are corroded and cause electrical failure as the say water and electricity are not a safe combination. with this malfunction my car no longer starts . Yes of course my car is available for inspection and it has been confirmed by both Hennessey Jaguar of Atlanta and Jaguar south Atlanta both have provided documentation as to the necessity to change the central junction box and both dealership's are not privately owned and not connected to one another yet they state the same reason as to why my car will not function. Yes my 2013 jaguar is a dangerous vehicle to drive as the car doors spontaneously opened and closed on their own the interior lights turned on and off and some other malfunctions engaged even when not engaged to do so i believe the breaking system also flashed traction control turns on even though i didn't ask it to be turned on. i am afraid that my car with water in the junction box could lead to an electrical fire as told to me by numerous mechanics Yes my car was inspected by both dealerships in Atlanta and both diagnosed the problem and being the "CJB." The symptoms initially started with my doors mysteriously locking and unlocking and then other electrical problems occurred after that. These symptoms first appeared in 2021 and there were messages that flashed on the dash message especially one that said see owners handbook i may not be sure of the wording but that's essentially the message . this is my best assessment of the problems.
The car employs a start/stop system to shut the engine when stopped. When it restarts the engine, the idle speed drops to about 400 RPM (half normal idle) and surges when it recovers.

The car employs a start/stop system to shut the engine when stopped. When it restarts the engine, the idle speed drops to about 400 RPM (half normal idle) and surges when it recovers. It has also stalled several times. I've asked the dealership to fix this, but when at the dealer, the system would not shut the engine so they have not verified the issue. The first safety issue happens if the driver is not expecting the surge resulting in sudden acceleration. The second issue happened when the car stalled at an intersection with other cars trying to get by. This has happened many times since I purchased the car in 2015. The stop/start function stopped working for a period of time when the primary battery was older and weak. Since replacing the batter, this is happening more frequently now. I did find this issue on KBB's website, but not on yours https://www.kbb.com/jaguar/xf/2013/recall/

There have been constant issues with this vehicle. The car has a strong odor of gasoline when driven. No alarms or indicators tells me that there is a problem. There have been safety recalls on this particular model that have the exact same issues but when checked my vin number is not listed. This needs to be investigated because I believe that this is an continuance of the same issues that has affected the 2013 XF Jaguars.

I LATELY NOTICED YOUR JAGUAR RECALL FOR MODELS XF OF 2013. IT CONCERNS FUEL PUMP IMMEDIATE SHUTOFF WHEN THERE IS EXCESS FUEL PUMP AMPERAGE AND A FUSE TRIPS TO SHUT OFF THE FUEL PUMP. IT CANNOT BE RESET UNTIL THE FUSE COOLS DOWN, AT LEAST 20 MINUTES IS REPORTED. MY CAR'S VIN NUMBER IS APPARENTLY OVER THE SPECIFIED COVEERGE PERIOD SO #15V091000 RECALL DOES NOT APPLY TO MY 2013 CAR. AT THE TIME IN LOOKING FOR ANSWERS I FOUND NONE. MY EVENT: THIS PAST SUMMER I WAS DRIVING TO SUDBURY, MA AT 10 P.M. MY ENGINE SUDDENLY STOPPED ON THE FULL SPEED AND MORE NARROW CURVING ENTRANCE TO THE MASS PIKE {FROM ROUTE 91 IN CONNECTICUT}! I WAS STUCK THERE FOR WELL OVER AN HOUR, EVERY SO OFTEN TRYING TO RESTART THE CAR; TO NO AVAIL. IT FINALLY COST ME $400 TO HAVE THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE SUDBURY JAGUAR DEALER AND LEFT OVERNIGHT FOR MORNING ACTION. SURPRISE, THE GARAGE MECHANIC THE NEXT MORNING TURNED THE KEY AND THE CAR STARTED IMMEDIATELY. IT HAD ALWAYS STARTED BEFORE THE COSTLY INCIDENT AND HAS STARTED IMMEDIATELY EVER SINCE. BUT THERE I WAS ON A CURVE AT NIGHT WITH 60 MPH+ TRUCKS AND CARS PASSING ME EVERY FEW SECONDS! AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATION. IT WAS ABOUT 25 MINUTES BEFORE A STATE PATROL TROOPER SHOWED UP WITH HELPFUL BLINKING YELLOW LIGHTS. AS A MECHANICAL ENGINEER AND HOBBY AUTO MECHANIC THERE SEEMS LITTLE DOUBT YOUR FUEL PUMP RECALL ISSUE SHOULD HAVE APPLIED TO MY 2013 JAGUAR XF. APPARENTLY MY REPLACING THE FUEL PUMP WAS A COMPLETELY USELESS EXPENSE AS THE CAR HAD ONLY ROUGHLY 50,000 MILES ON IT.

1PE16015 · Powered Vehicle Rollaway
Opened Dec 16, 2016 · Closed Aug 11, 2020
Status: closed (inferred from source dates) · Power Train:automatic Transmission
On December 16, 2016, ODI opened PE16-015 to investigate seven complaints alleging incidents of powered rollaway in model year (MY) 2012 through 2014 Land Rover/Range Rover Evoque and Jaguar XF vehicles. The complaints all alleged that the rollaway incidents occurred after the operators shifted to Park and exited the vehicle with the engine left running. All of the incidents alleged that crashes resulted from the unexpected vehicle movement and three alleged injuries. Two of the complaints counted in the opening resume (ID's 10760326 and 10884136) involved the same vehicle and incident. ODI has not received any new complaints since PE16-015 was opened, resulting in current ODI report totals of 6 incidents, 6 crashes and 3 injuries. Field data provided by Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) in response to ODI's information request letter for PE16-015 included 10 allegations of powered rollaway incidents in the subject vehicles, including 9 alleging crashes. Updates provided by JLR through October 25, 2019, have identified one additional powered rollaway allegation in the subject vehicles. The new incident included a crash allegation, bringing the JLR field incident totals to 11 incidents and 10 crashes. None of the JLR reports allege injuries. Two of the JLR reports are duplicates of incidents reported to ODI, resulting in a total of 15 incidents, 14 crashes and 3 injury allegations in the subject vehicles. ODI's analysis of system design and field incident investigative data has not identified any mechanical or electronic faults that have caused subject vehicle transmissions to shift out of Park with no operator input nor has the analysis identified any faults that would result in a failure to execute a valid Park shift selection. JLR's field investigations of powered rollaway incidents have assessed the root cause to be operator error. Based on these assessments and the low rate and declining trend in rollaway incidents, this investigation is closed. The closing of this investigation does not foreclose the Agency from taking further action if warranted or the potential for a future finding that a safety-related defect exists based upon additional information the agency may receive. For more detailed information about field incident analysis for the subject and peer vehicles see the attached report.The ODI reports (VOQs) cited above can be viewed at NHTSA.gov under the following reference numbers with duplicate records shown in parentheses: 10504853, 10548937, 10565212, 10631673, 10760326 (10884136), 10892346.
