   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 failure. My car just stopped and my check engine light did not…

   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.

   60,000 miles, the head gasket blew in traffic. Jaguar dealer quotes $35,000 to replace engine. This is not acceptable for a car of this price. I have been victimized by defective parts in our 2017 Jaguar F-Pace. These parts and repairs and associated costs should have been covered under warranty and recall. These catastrophic failures/repairs were due to known defective parts (clam shell "y" pipe, and outlet pipes). JLR Service Departments have been aware of these defects as…

   My 2017 Jaguar F-Pace S (3.0L supercharged V6) experienced a sudden water-pump failure that led to overheating, loss of oil pressure, timing-chain slack, and complete engine failure. The failure began with the water pump, which caused coolant loss and intermittent overheating that was not accurately reflected on the dashboard temperature gauge. As the water pump deteriorated, the hydraulic timing-chain tensioners lost pressure, allowing the chain to slacken and eventually…

This is a known issue…

   our F-Pace had 120,000 miles. Worked great, very reliable, but then out of nowhere while driving the car the low coolant light came on and with in a minute the engine shut down and the car was dead. I had all I could do to get the car off the interstate with traffic behind me going 70mph. I am very lucky that I was not slammed into from behind as the car literally lost all power. I got it to the side of road with steam blowing out the engine. I called 911 and the fire…

    I am writing to file a formal complaint against Carvana regarding the purchase of a 2017 Jaguar F-Pace. Despite driving less than 4189 miles, the vehicle requires extensive repairs costing $8,600.00 before taxes, with additional maintenance costs of $1,400.00.

They also did not inform me that an extended warranty was not available for…
