Engine And Engine Cooling Problems of Jaguar XJR

After 15-20 minutes of highway driving, vehicle suddenly switches into "restricted performance" showing this amber light indicator and amber engine light. Several times because of the drawback in speed, I have been almost rear-ended. This problem is putting my life and others on the highway in danger. This issue has been a problem with my car for over 3 years now with many appointments to Jaguar servicing for replacements; to include coolant pump and throttle body; yet, the problem still continues. I believe the problem is a defect of the engine. This should be investigated and listed as a recall.

Car went into "failsafe" mode and lost all power as I was merging onto a highway. This looks to be a common problem with this and all the xj . . . 1998 -2003 x308 models. The tps has a fault and is not replaceable. This is very dangerous as it comes on with no warning and no power is available.

While merging into the fast lane on the highway the car goes into limp mode and I nearly got rear ended by a truck . After precariously making it to the shoulder ( almost got hit by another car )the codes all cleared and car resumes as normal. I take it in to the dealer and he tells me its possibly the throttle body but he is not sure . Looking online I find many Xjr's with the same issue and almost fatal consequences due to Jaguar's complete negligence to recall and fix their mistakes. The part is obviously not correctly engineered - they should do something about it before someone gets killed .
