Windshield. The Jaguar 2017 F Pace windshield is very fragile. While driving down [XXX] on multiple occasions, a pebble has hit my window and caused a huge crack. On the most recent occurrence the pebble was still in my window shield after returning home. I was traveling around 70 to 75 mph when the pebble hit my windshield. I am now on my 5th window shield since purchasing the vehicle in Dec 2019. When purchased, the vehicle had 31K miles and due to the shut down (2020)and work from home, the vehicles was barely driven. Jaguar Land Rover DFW 972.295.9783 has records of all my service calls regarding windshield replacement. The cracks have been both on the driver and passenger side. These windshields on average are $350 and up. Yes the problem has been confirmed by dealer.(Jaguar Land Rover DFW Hwy 114 Dallas TX). No Yes by the dealer (Jaguar Land Rover DFW Hwy 114 Dallas TX.) No No there were not warning lights before hand. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF...

This car had about 27, 950 miles on it! While driving the low coolant light came on. Stopped at once and checked the coolant level. I was only slightly low. Added more coolant and light went out, this was about one week ago, 3/3/2024. The next day after two miles, low coolant light. Again added more coolant. The next day after a few miles, the car smelled of oil or something unusual, a burning smell, as my wife was driving it, no warning lights this time, this happened while stopped at a stop light. Suddenly the entire front of the car was covered with smoke! My wife said she thought the car was on fire. She pulled into a parking lot and stopped the car. The smoke subsided and she called me. The car did not appear to be overheated and the temperature gauge was normal. Adding more coolant temporally solved the issue. I have taken the car into the Jaguar dealer and they immediately knew what the problem was, seems that ALL 2017 JAGUARS have this problem. An internet search verified th...

On [XXX] I stopped at a local gas station to refuel. Immediately after leaving the gas station I heard a loud noise and the car went into limp mode. All the warning light were illuminated and lots of white smoke poured out of tailpipes. The diagnosis was that the turbo had filled with oil destroying both the turbo and motor. Total repair costs were close to $17,000 for remanufactured turbo and motor. This seems to be the exact same issue others have noted. There are class action law suits in the UK, Australia and the US for dpf failure leading to engine and turbo failure. Car has 95,000 miles on it.

Was accerelating from stop, heard a pop and vechical went into limp mode with several warnings on dash. Pulled over and white smoke was coming from exhaust. Turbo had blown and sucked all oil into exhaust and catalytic converter. Repairs were 6k. I was lucky as it did not blow engine.
