I am investigating a fatal collision involving a vehicle fire of a 2006 jaguar s type 4dr sedan. the fuel filter is located inside the left front fender well and is not protected by any frame component. the fuel shut off switch is located directly behind the left front wheel well. the victim vehicle was struck in an offset head on manner on the driver's (left side), directly impacting the area of the fuel filter. the fuel line was torn off of the filter, and it does not appear that the shut off switch actually worked, thereby pumping gasoline onto the front of the car as it slid across the road. the car was quickly engulfed in flames, and the driver who was pinned into the car died as a result of the fire. my case # is [xxx]. *tr

On at least four occasions, and upon starting the vehicle, the engine, after 10 to 30 seconds, rapidly accelerates to 4,000 - 6,000 rpm. the only way to restrict the rapid acceleration is to shut the engine off with the ignition key. *jb

When i bought the car a week later it blew hot air, i was told it only needed freon. i found out later that there was a leak and it is $1200. a week after that the car would not start the dealer picked the car up and said that the battery was dead because i left the radio on, it has happened over 30 times, not true there is something wrong. i have replaced tires at least six times. tires completely separate. i was driving and car slowed down on freeway and i was almost hit, i pulled over and it stopped and did it again and i had to push the traction control button, almost cost me my life! it now happens when i hit a bump. when i turn the car makes a extremely loud noise, (embarrassing) i was told it is a ball joint and can catch on fire. engine light has always been on and is now blinking and the car shakes and hesitates. i had to pay to get the brakes fixed 2 months after purchasing. radio turns on for no reason and runs battery down. i was told i have two leaks in my shocks and it is $1800 each. when i back up and turn the steering wheel vibrates. i can't even use the cigarette lighter to charge my cell because it does not work and has been replaced twice. the remote just stop working and i was charged $100 to reconfigure. the brakes act funny, can't even explain it. this car is unreal, a complete piece of junk. i can't even remember half the stuff i have endured and the money i have spent. *nm
