2011 Jaguar XF Complaints

The contact owns a 2011 Jaguar XF. The contact stated that while operating the vehicle, there was an abnormal fuel odor present inside and outside the vehicle. Upon inspection, it was discovered that fuel was leaking underneath the vehicle on the rear passenger’s side. The cause of the failure was not determined. The local dealer and manufacturer were notified of the failure. The contact was informed that the vehicle was not included in the NHTSA campaign number: 12V521000 (Fuel System, Gasoline). The contact indicated that the vehicle had experienced the failure listed in the recall. The failure mileage was 140,000.

CURRENTLY THE FUEL TANK IS RUPTURED LEAKING FUEL ON THE GROUND. tHE LEAK IS NOT VISIBLE AS TO WHERE IT IS ORIGINATING FROM. tHE LEAK STOPS AFTER THE CAR SITS FOR ABOUT A HALF HOUR. I HAVE NOT TAKEN THE CAR IN FOR INSPECTION. I DID FIND THAT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THIS POSSIBLE PROBLEM BACK IN 2012 AND WAS WONDERING IF THE MANUFACTURE IS STILL LIABLE FOR THIS PROBLEM EVEN AFTER IT IS FIXED THE FIRST TIME? OTHER THAN THE STRONG ODOR FROM THE FUEL THE ONLY INDICATOR I RECEIVED WAS THE SERVICE SOON LIGHT CAME ON THE DASH. NOT SURE IF THIS WOULD BE COVERED UNDER RECAL 12V521000.

DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD, GET TO A LIGHT OR I AM TURNING- THE CAR TURNS OFF FOR NO REASON. THEN I CUT IT OFF THEN START IT BACK UP. IT RUNS FIND. I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST WEIRD. THEN HAPPENED AGAIN TODAY TWICE. IT STALLS. MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON. WHY IS MY STALLING? DO YOU HAVE ANY DATA FOR ME? I AM TRYING TO FIND OUT WHAT TO DO. I AM GOING TO RESEARCH MORE AS WELL. PLEASE HELP ME!

I HAVE REPORTED THIS PROBLEM ABOUT MY CAR STALLING, CUT OFF WHEN I TURN. I HAVE NOTICED YOU HAVE HAD SEVERAL COMPLAINTS FOR THE SAME ISSUE OVER AND OVER AGAIN. I JUST WENT OUT ON THE FORUM. IS SOMEONE GOING TO ADDRESS THESE ISSUES. ENGINE/FUEL PROPULSION SYSTEM/STALLING IN TRAFFIC IS DANGEROUS MANY LIVES ON THESE DANGEROUS HIGHWAYS. HOW CAN MY VEHICLE NOT BE ON THE LIST FOR RECALL IF SEVERAL OWNERS WITH THE LAST 8 DIGIT VIN NUMBER STARTING WITH BLR... PLEASE HELP!

I CURRENTLY HAVE A MODEL YEAR 2011 XF VEHICLES AND IT IS EQUIPPED WITH A 5.0L GASOLINE ENGINE. IT IS MY UNDERSTANDING THAT THIS ISSUE WAS AFFECTING 2010-2012 XF VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH THE 5.0 L GASOLINE ENGINE. THE AFFECTED VEHICLES MAY HAVE A FUEL TANK FUEL OUTLET FLANGE THAT MAY CRACK. I'M CURRENTLY HAVING THE SAME ISSUE THAT THE RECALL IS SPEAKING OF; HOWEVER, MY VEHICLE IS NOT IN THE CURRENT RECALL. I WANTED TO BRING THIS TO JAGUAR'S ATTENTION FOR CURRENT OWNERS LIKE MYSELF, FOR THE AFFECTED VEHICLES MAY HAVE A FUEL TANK FUEL OUTLET FLANGE THAT MAY CRACK. I THINK THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS RECALL THAT SHOULD BE FOR ALL OF 2010-2012 XF THAT HAVE THIS ISSUE. THIS IS THE INFORMATION THAT IS CURRENTLY POSTED ONLINE FOR JAGUAR'S CUSTOMERS TO SEE, BUT WHEN I CALLED ABOUT THIS RECALL, I WAS INFORMED IT DIDN'T APPLY TO ME EVEN THOUGH I AM AFFECTED.
