After buying my F-Type (MY2017 V6 Premium) from a Texas dealership who "reassured me" the vehicle was in tip top shape has been slowly beginning to fall apart after months of owning it. In the three months that I have been driving it, I have had to replace the following parts:

a.) Dead AGM Battery caused by what I can only assume to be the OBD2 port issue stated in another post.
b.) Drivers side rear tire slowly leaking air, roughly 3-5PSI per day.
c.) SOS System Telematics Battery, was causing my SOS system to have "limited functionality."
d.) Coolant lines to below supercharger and coming from reservoir tank, as they became brittle and exploded.

Other parts I have yet to fix are:

a.) Front Bumper Bar, P.O decided to drill a license plate holder into it with screws
b.) Various paint chips/scratches/dents.

Now don't get me wrong, I love this car. Although some of these are just engineering problems (brittle coolant lines caused by heat cycles), I'm concerned if given all these parts have gone bad if I'm in for a big hit sometime soon (something the dealer was trying to cover up).
If anyone is selling or knows someone selling a front bumper bar or a good paint shop near Port Royal, SC. I'm interested.

 

was it a Jaguar dealer? I almost bought from a couple of different texas Jaguar dealers and they were terrible to deal with. texas sucks. hope it all works out for you.

 

Texas Auto North. Will never do dealings with them again.

 

Is there a warranty?

 

It's unfortunate you're having issues, but I'm not sure it's as dire as you think.

Battery replacement is common. Mine was done about a year ago, so same age as yours.
Leak in the tire? Could have happened at any time, including rolling out after transport.
SOS? I have no idea on that one.
Coolant lines seem young for that, but it's been reported.
Sadly, that's the "proper" way to mount the license plate. I made sure to tell them not to mount a front plate when I ordered the car.

I hope you get it all sorted and have a long, enjoyable time with the car.
