What owners report
WHILE STOPPED IN THE ROAD WAITING FOR ANOTHER CAR. WITH FOOT ON BRAKE, THE CAR SUDDENLY GOES FULL THROTTLE. DRIVER HAS BOTH FEET APPLIED ON THE BRAKE AND THE CAR STILL MOVES FORWARD BURNING RUBBER, AND THEN AFTER A FEW SECONDS IT GOES BACK TO IDLE. THE CAR DOES THIS ONCE OR TWICE A YEAR, THE LAST TIME DOING DAMAGE TO A CAR IN FRONT OF IT. THIS IS THE FIFTH TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED. THE CAR IS IDLING NORMALLY WITH THE RIGHT FOOT ON THE BRAKE AND IT WILL JUST GO FULL THROTTLE ALL BY ITSELF. IT HAS HAPPENED ENOUGH THAT WE KNOW WE DO NOT HAVE BOTH THE BRAKE AND THE GAS PEDAL DEPRESSED.

I DRIVE A 2006 JAGUAR XJE SEDAN AND HAVE HAD PROBLEMS 4 TIMES WITH SUDDEN ACCELERATION WHEN I COME TO A STOP SIGN. I STEP ON THE BRAKE AND AS THE CAR COMES TO A STOP IT SUDDENTLY ACCELERATES. I HAVE HAD TO PRACTICALLY STAND ON THE BRAKE PEDAL TO KEEP THE CAR FROM GOING INTO THE INTERSECTION WITH WHEELS SCREECHING AND THE ODOR OF RUBBER BURNING! THE DEALER, WEST HERR JAGUAR IN BUFFALO, NEW YORK HAS KEPT THE CAR FOR THE PAST 3 WEEKS AND COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT. NOW MY WIFE AND I ARE DRIVING IT AND FEAR THAT IT MAY HAPPEN AGAIN. SINCE THE DEALER FOUND NOTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR, EVEN THOUGH THIS ACCELERATION HAPPENED TO US, (LAST TIME WAS IN JANUARY 2010), WHAT CAN I DO ? HAVE YO

ON MAY 5, 2006, WHEN MY NEW 2006 JAGUAR XJ8 WAS IN THE GARAGE OF MY RESIDENCE, WITH MILEAGE OF 1,634, THE AUTOMOBILE EXPERIENCED A MASSIVE FUEL LEAK LITERALLY FLOODING THE FLOOR OF THE GARAGE. THE CAR WAS TAKEN INTO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT REPLACED A FLANGE SEAL, PERFORMED AN OVERNIGHT TEST DRIVE, AND STATED THAT THE VEHICLE "OPERATES AS DESIGNED". THEREAFTER, ON JUNE 4, 2006, WITH MILEAGE OF 2,581, ANOTHER MASSIVE FUEL LEAK OCCURRED AND AGAIN THE AUTOMOBILE WAS RETURNED TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR SERVICE. AT THIS TIME THE FLANGE SEAL WAS AGAIN FOUND TO BE LEAKING AND THE GAS TANK WAS FOUND TO BE WARPED. ON THIS OCCASION THE FLANGE WAS AGAIN REPLACED AND THE FUEL TANK WAS
