MY JAGUAR X-TYPE 2004 CAR WHEN TRAVELING AT ABOUT 25-30 MPH ALTERNATELY GETS SLUGGISH AND SLOWS OR REVS UP, CAUSING ME TO APPLY BRAKES HARD TO PREVENT COLLISIONS. I HAVE TO ALLOW ENORMOUS SPACE BETWEEN ME AND THE VEHICLE AHEAD BECAUSE I AM AFRAID OF COLLIDING WITH VEHICLES IN FRONT. ALSO HAVE TO BRAKE HARD TO TO OVERCOME THE SURGING FORTH OF THE ENGINE. THE CAR WILL ALSO REV UP WHEN I AM PARKING IT. THESE ARE SUCH COMMON OCCURRENCES, AND IT SEEMS TO BE A MANUFACTURING MALFUNCTION. JAGUAR SHOULD RECALL ALL 2004 X-TYPES TO FIX THESE DANGEROUS AND POTENTIALLY LIFE THREATENING MACHINES. I REQUEST THAT THE NHTSA IMMEDIATELY FOLLOW UP AND REQUIRE RECALL OF THESE ROAD HAZARDS. THANK YOU.
