AFTER 15-20 MINUTES OF HIGHWAY DRIVING, VEHICLE SUDDENLY SWITCHES INTO "RESTRICTED PERFORMANCE" SHOWING THIS AMBER LIGHT INDICATOR AND AMBER ENGINE LIGHT. SEVERAL TIMES BECAUSE OF THE DRAWBACK IN SPEED, I HAVE BEEN ALMOST REAR-ENDED. THIS PROBLEM IS PUTTING MY LIFE AND OTHERS ON THE HIGHWAY IN DANGER. THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN A PROBLEM WITH MY CAR FOR OVER 3 YEARS NOW WITH MANY APPOINTMENTS TO JAGUAR SERVICING FOR REPLACEMENTS; TO INCLUDE COOLANT PUMP AND THROTTLE BODY; YET, THE PROBLEM STILL CONTINUES. I BELIEVE THE PROBLEM IS A DEFECT OF THE ENGINE. THIS SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED AND LISTED AS A RECALL.
