took delivery of a black on black xf supercharged. the day i got it the tire pressure monitor light came on... took it in. 3 days of waiting to find out it was just a broken sensor inside the tire... some tard who put the tire on the rim broke it off... surprised i couldn't hear it rattling around inside the tire... i've had the car about a week and a half now, in the shop for 3 days. now today, the 'engine malfunction' light came on... going in again tomorrow for that.

mind you, when it was in the shop (and after i got home) i noticed a good 8-10 surface scratches on the top of the trunk... probably some careless mechanic with either a tool in his hand or a wedding band on his finger shutting it time and time again while playing around with the module. almost all of those buffed out completely except for a couple that you can just barely see in the right light... and i also noticed a lovely 1/4" scratch on the right rear door towards the top... all the way down to the metal. unfortunately i just noticed this one... needless to say i'm pissed. not sure what i should do about it... i hate the fact that its going in again tomorrow..... grrrrr. i'm tempted to make them take it back and have them do whatever it takes to get me a new car.......

frustrated.

 

Sorry to hear all that..after they have it this time..mention the scratch as you pick up the car this time and tell them it wasn't there when you brought it in..this would be easier for them to acknowledge it than from the last time you brought it in..

Other than that, I knew this first year would have it's problems, should have waited for the 10 MY...I am

 

The cars are actually pretty flawless right now. I know it sucks to beone of the guys with a check engine light, but other than that and your tpms fault, the car is good. We have had a couple come in with check engine lights after 1000 miles. The tpms fault is just one of those things. Not a flaw with car.
I haveto say this is probably the best ever first run car to be released by Jag. The number sold vs number coming back for repairs is outstanding.

 

yeah some dealers are just better then others..

 

Biggest thing IMO to realize is that cars have problems and the first year of car, no matter manufacturer, have problems...

 

Exactly

 

That's why I buy used! Let those quirks fixed and pay 25% less or even more! But those that can afford new keep doing it so the rest of us can ****** em up! Just try to take better care of that leather, I hate used leather! The stuff would be spotless if I owned it from new! (long as there aren't any fire hydrants aren't near!)

 

Amen to that man, especially with Jags, maybe closer to 50% off the original price for a 2 year old model.

 

well they fixed the scratch... looks great. they buffed the entire car and waxed it... looked great. as they were giving me the key, a lady in a green s-type backed right into it.[:@] put some dimples in the bumper and scratched and cracked the paint all to hell all along the back of the bumper... less than 500 miles on the car, and in the shop 4 times now........ jaguar called me (yesterday - before it being hit) and is sending me a $250 gift card to use at the dealership... woo hoo.

this is getting stupid.

 

Damn Man!!!..What the hell are the chances of that??..Something spooky about this one...[sm=jawdrop.gif]
