@m_101: Sorry to hear you had the same issue. I really should have forced the issue but I just wanted my car back. If we can make enough noise about this then I'm sure Jaguar would take note. That being said when mine was in the technician admitted that he had heard of this before and had never know...

My personal opinion is they don’t deploy by accident but by excess impact In a perfect world, no. I guarantee they do though.

You can with a kit, but I wouldn't want to be caught in a genuine accident and be found out!

Minor update. Just got off the phone to Marshall Jaguar, Oxford. They have a 2 day lead time, so the chances are they won't even look at the car until at least tomorrow. I stated that as far as I was concerned this was a false deployment and should be covered by the warranty. So, should have another...

Definitely not a speed issue. I'll chat to them on Monday

Thought I had a better shot than this but obviously not.
It shows the bonnet having been popped up:
