What owners report
THE FUEL LINE BECAME DISCONNECTED FROM THE TOP OF THE FUEL PUMP AND FUEL LEAKED ONTO THE ASPHALT. . THIS HAPPENED WHILE THE CAR WAS PARKED IN A PARKING LOT. IT WAS REPAIRED BY THE DEALER WHO FOUND THAT THE CONNECTION POINT OF THE FUEL LINE ON THE "TOP HAT"HAD OPENED AND THAT THE TOP HAT WAS DAMAGED. THIS CONNECTION IS AT THE TOP OF THE FUEL TANK AND WAS NEVER SERVICED, IT APPEARS THAT THE.CONNECTION FAILED DUE THE POLYMER MATERIAL DETERIORATING AND CRACKING.
THIS CAR (AS WELL AS SEVERAL OTHER SPORTS CARS) COMES WITH HIGH PERFORMANCE TIRES WITH SO LITTLE TRACTION IN RAIN AND SNOW THAT THEY TOTALLY DEFEAT THE PURPOSE OF THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKES AND STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEMS. THESE TIRES ARE SO SMOOTH THAT THEY WILL HYDRO-PLANE AT 30 MPH DURING A HARD RAIN. IN ONLY INCH OF SNOW, THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKES AND STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEMS DO NOT WORK AT ALL DO TO THE TOTAL ABSENCE OF TRACTION. ABOVE 5 MPH IN INCH OF SNOW THERE IS NO STEERING CONTROL AS THERE IS NOT ENOUGH TRACTION. WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF MANDATING ANTI-LOCK BRAKES AND STABILITY CONTROL WHEN YOU LET MANUFACTURERS PUT TIRES ON THE CAR THAT DEFEAT THEM IN ORDINARY DRIVING CONDITIONS? RAIN AND SN
I BOUGHT A NEW XK IN AUGUST. I HAVE TO QUESTION THE RATIONALE FOR EQUIPPING IT WITH HIGH PERFORMANCE TIRES (VIRTUAL RACING SLICKS) IN MINNESOTA. ON A WARM SUMMER DAY WITH ONLY A LITTLE RAIN, THE TIRES LOSE TRACTION FREQUENTLY. IN WINTER THEY ARE DOWNRIGHT DANGEROUS. EVEN WITH ONLY AN INCH OF SNOW, THE FRONT WHEELS LOSE TRACTION IN GOING AROUND A CORNER AT ONLY FIVE MILES AN HOUR. THE REAL WHEELS HAVE SO LITTLE TRACTION THAT EVEN WITH THE TRACTION CONTROL AND STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEMS TURNED ON, THE REAR END FISHTAILS WHEN TURNING. OUR STREET IS FLAT AND YET, WITH ONLY A LITTLE SNOW ON THE ROAD, THE CAR CAN NOT MOVE OVER 2 -3 MPH WITHOUT LOSING TRACTION SO IT INCHES ALONG, IF IT MOVES AT ALL
