| I was driving in a parking lot and came to a stop but the car then accelerated and i had brake hard to hold the car back. i put the car into park. when i attempted to put the car into gear again, i could not move the shifter. i turned the car off and restarted it, and the car ran fine the rest of the evening.the next day, i was again in a parking lot and as i try to park, the engine accelerates wildly. i was able to hold the car with the brakes and put it into park. once in park, the engine continued to rev. the shifter was now stuck. i tapped the shifter and that allowed me to shift the car and the engine went to normal operation.as of 12/11, the problem has not happened again. i will be taking the car to my dealer for diagnosis. | |||

| 2009 jaguar xf - sudden acceleration issue on three separate occasions. driving about 20 mph and the car accelerated - able to stop the car by pressing down fully on the brakes. it did not respond at first and then something shifted and then the brakes worked. with five minutes, it did it again and the only way to stop the car was to slam it into park. the car was towed into the dealer and the black box information downloaded to the manufacturer. no fault codes found and they could not duplicate the problem. it has since done it one more time and the emergency brake stopped the car. the manufacturer is claiming that both the brake and the gas were depressed at the same time. *tr | |||
