A Jaguar 2000 was purchased on Dec 2003. It had 39000 miles. I have only put on 4000 miles on this car and the ball joint broke the other day and I was almost killed. The car was towed to a local foreign auto place and Jaguar refuses to repair the ball joint. Claiming they will only take the claim from a registered Jaguar dealer. So the car was towed today to momentum Jaguar on the sw freeway and I was told that the ball joint was replaced on the drivers side in April 2001 and it broke again???in less that 43000 miles we have had 2 defective ball joints?? and the passenger side is defective as well and needs to be changed!! this is a serious defect and Jaguar is disclaiming any and all responsibility. . . It also has a/c problems and electrical problems. The sensors do not work and were replaced last year. The window regulators broke and were charged to me. . The rear passenger side of the car is falling off . . . . It is always overheating . It is unbelievable and I only drove it 4000 miles in the last 2 years that I own it!!!!!!surely this is a lemon in the first degree!!!!.
