On 2 separate occasions approx. 1 year apart I was driving long distance from san diego, CA to nevada and idaho on interstate 15. On the first occasion (6/4/04) the vehicle lost all power and stalled approx. 60 miles south of salt lake city. Was able to restart and drove approx. 5 miles when vehicle stalled again. This occurred twice more and I was unable to restart after the fourth stall. Vehicle was towed to Jaguar dealership in salt lake city and kept there for 5 days. The service rep stated they could find nothing wrong but ultimately replaced the fuel pump. The vehicle was under warranty at that time. The second incident occured this last week (5/31/02) and was identical to the first failure except this occurred approx. 25 miles south of las vegas and the vehicle would not restart after the 2nd failure. Vehicle was towed to the dealership in las vegas. They again could find nothing wrong. I was told by the service manager that because they could not duplicate the problem in the shop that my only alternative was to for them to take the vehicle on an extended road test at my expense. They did not feel this was a warranty issue because they couldn't detect the problem with their diagnostic tools and so it was not related to the first incident. I did not feel that I should pay them for the extended road test because the problem should have been covered under the warranty. I retrieved my vehicle and returned home.
Tl-the contact owns a 2002 Jaguar S-type. The contact stated that when the ignition was turned to the on position, it was difficult for the vehicle to shift out of the park position. After the vehicle was shifted into the drive position there was a loud noise coming from the front of the vehicle. The contact stated that when the vehicle was filled with fuel, there was a strong odor of fuel. The failures recurred continuously. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the fuel system, lower ball joints and transmission failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired but the failure recurred. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and stated that the VIN was not included in NHTSA campaign number: 06e056000 (fuel system, gasoline). The failure mileage was approximately unknown. The VIN was unavailable. Sg.
