What owners report
The Whole upper control arm came off due to the recall on the right upper suspension in the front...I reported this when it happened may 2022 and no response or help from the jaguar company by that time I could not afford to get it out of impound because I was in the parking lot of the government post office right by the Evansville police station
I was backing out of the Post office downtown Evansville Indiana on E sycamore street when I heard a thud and my right front tire was leaning in and front bumper on ground the ball joint broke causing my upper control arm to snap. The cops impounded it it's at Tristate towing in Evansville Indiana

ONCE RESTARTED, THE VEHICLE RESUMED NORMAL OPERATION. THE FAILURE RECURRED AND THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO TWO INDEPENDENT MECHANICS WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE DRUM ON THE TRANSMISSION WAS FAULTY.
