Jaguar Recalls Thousands Of Cars Due To Major Software Glitch

November 2, 2011

Jaguar has recalled thousands of its cars after a major software glitch was detected in the cruise control software.




FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) November 2, 2011 -- Jaguar has recalled thousands of its cars after a major software glitch was detected in the cruise control software.

The luxury car manufacturer has been forced to retract almost 18,000 X-type models after the bug meant drivers might not be able to turn the car’s on-board system off. The fault reportedly lies with the engine management control software developed in-house by Jaguar and it implies that a driver can only cancel the mode by turning off the engine.

The company has sent a letter out to customers warning them that models produced between 2006 and 2010 with diesel engines could be affected by the error.

A spokesperson from the firm said: “This potential problem was spotted by one of our employees. No customer has been affected and there had been no accidents or injuries.”

The letter states that if the cruise control is engaged, it cannot be switched off in the normal manner in some circumstances. Turning the ignition off will cancel the function.

Any used car can suddenly break or fail due to the thousands of electrical and mechanical parts which go into making a typical vehicle. So whether you have a Jaguar, BMW or Mercedes, make sure you are covered with an extended warranty from Warrantywise.

As the UK’s leading car warranty company, they provide warranty services to many of the country’s largest main dealer groups including makes such as Ferrari, Rolls Royce, Mitsubishi and Land Rover car warranty.
