I TOOK MY CAR IN AT THE END OF APRIL/EARLY MAY SOMETIME FOR THE TRANSMISSION TO BE REPAIRED , I TOOK MY CAR INTO JAGUAR AS I NORMALLY TO GET THIS WORK DONE. I GOT MY CAR BETWEEN MAY 8TH AND 9TH BECAUSE I DROVE IT TO MY GRADUATION MAY 10TH. LITERALLY 7 DAYS MAY 16TH AFTER IT WAS FIXED IT WOULD NOT START AND ERROR MESSAGES APPEARED ON DASH BOARD THAT I'VE NEVER SEEN. I CALLED THE SHOP AND THEY STATED TOO HAVE IT TOWED. THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO GET IT IN UNTIL JUNE BUT HAVE IT TOWED SO I DID. ON JULY 16TH THE RED TOLD ME THIS "WE ARE REPLACING THE TRANSMISSION SLEEVE THAT WE REPLACED LAST TIME. I GOT IT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY AND MY PARTS HAVE ARRIVED. I SHOULD HAVE DONE TOMORROW. I WILL UPDATE ASAP --RYAN SCHMITT JAGUAR LAND ROVER MINNEAPOLIS. JULY 18TH THIS IS WHAT I WAS TOLD "WE ARE TRYING TO GET THIS TRANSMISSION ISSUE TAKEN CAR OF. WE TRIED TO WARRANTY WORK WE DID LAST TIME AND IT DIDN'T FIX IT. WE ACTUALLY HAVE A SEPARATE ISSUE OF FLUID LEAKING. MY TECH IS TRYING TO FIGURE OUT OUR OPTIONS. IT STARTS AND RUNS GOOD NOW BUT TRANSMISSION FLUID WILL EVENTUALLY LEAK DOWN AND CAUSE THE CONNECTOR TO GO BAD. I SHOULD HAVE A QUOTE TOGETHER SHORTLY BUT UNFORTUNATLEY IT WONT BE CHEAP. --RYAN SCHMITT JAGUAR LAND ROVER MINNEAPOLIS. TODAY IS JULY 24TH I WAS TOLD THAT THEY COULD LOOK DEEPER INTO TO SEE IF IT'S AN INTERNAL PROBLEM BUT THAT WOULD COST ME AS WELL.

SOME PASSENGER VEHICLES MAY HAVE FUEL TANKS IN WHICH THE FUEL DELIVERY MODULE (FDM), JET PUMP MODULE (JPM), AND/OR CLUSTER VALVE (CV) SEALS ARE NOT PROPERLY RETAINED IN THE FUEL TANK. THIS MAY RESULT IN ILLUMINATION OF THE MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LAMP (MIL), OR A FUEL ODOR.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: IF THE AMOUNT OF FUEL IS ABOVE THE FDM, JPM, OR CV APERTURES, FUEL MAY BE DISCHARGED ONTO THE GROUND. FUEL LEAKAGE IN THE PRESENCE OF AN IGNITION SOURCE COULD RESULT IN A FIRE.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL INSPECT THE FUEL TANKS TO DETERMINE IF REVISED SEALS MAY BE USED TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE. IF NOT, DEALERS WILL THEN REPLACE THE ENTIRE FUEL TANK ASSEMBLY. DUE TO PROBLEMS IN OBTAINING THE REPLACEMENT FUEL TANKS, THE RECALL BEGAN ON JANUARY 29 THROUGH MARCH 30, 2007. OWNERS MAY CONTACT JAGUAR AT 1-800-452-4827.

THE BRAKE FLUID MASTER CYLINDER RESERVOIR IS RECESSED AND ORIENTED IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT BENEATH A LEAF SCREEN, SUCH THAT THE BRAKE FLUID WARNING STATEMENT EMBOSSED ON THE TOP OF THE RESERVOIR BODY IS NOT VISIBLE BY DIRECT VIEW.
Consequence & remedy
