Defect Description:
UNKNOWN OR OTHER
Potential Consequences:
Passenger front door will not open from outside the car or from inside. Dealership had to replace 2-cables, actuator & cable, and latch. The Jaguar forum has several complaints about this problem. It can be a computer issue in some cases but usually a cable or cables that fail. Essentially the door will not open leaving the passenger to either evacuate through the window or over the large center counsel. The car was not in an accident, the door was not slammed weather was warm and sunny when the door malfunctioned. I see this as a real safety issue! What if i took my elderly mother to the emergency room because she was having chest pains. When I get her to the ER we cant open the door to get her out and she dies while they try to pull her 200lb body though the window? Obviously this would be an extreme circumstance but, this could be a dooms day scenario for an unfortunate Jaguar or Land Rover owner.

CAR WAS IN A FRONTAL COLLISION APRIL 17, 2018 WHICH TOTALLED THE CAR (MORE THAN $40,000 DAMAGE TO FRONT OF CAR) AND DURING THE COLLISION, THE CAR EMITTED A SPRAY/SUBSTANCE INTO THE AIR ON THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE DASH AREA BUT THE AIRBAG FAILED TO DEPLOY CAUSING INJURIES TO MY WIFE WHO WAS RIDING IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. THE VEHICLE WAS TRAVELING AT ABOUT 40MPH WHEN IT STRUCK ANOTHER VEHICLE WHICH FAILED TO YIELD THE RIGHT OF WAY WHEN IT TURNED IN FRONT OF US. I WAS A PASSENGER IN THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE SEAT IN THE COLLISION. WE WERE DRIVING ON A CITY STREET IN SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS. THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG ALSO FAILED TO DEPLOY FAILING TO PROTECT MY DAUGHTER-IN-LAW WHO WAS DRIVING THE CAR AS WE HEADED TO MY HOME AFTER I HAD SURGERY THAT MORNING. I DO KNOW THERE IS A SAFETY RECALL ON SOME JAGUAR XJL MODELS, BUT WE, TO DATE, HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY INFORMATION ON THIS FACT FROM JAGUAR AND I AM VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THIS, ESPECIALLY GIVEN THE DEFECT AND POOR SAFETY PERFORMANCE WE JUST EXPERIENCED.
