Don’t suppose anyone has the part numbers do they, if I can’t get it done under warranty I will look at replacing the bits myself

Anyone from admin may be an idea to put this as a locked file somewhere for reference. If any others wish to buy the parts for DIY.

This issue effects all cars from 2013 to at least Feb 18 when mine came off the production line. The issue is to big for Jaguar to hide. The parts are clear not fit for purpose and will not last a reasonable time for a sub frame. It should be a recall issue and this forum should be pushing Jaguar to recall. My Car is being monitored as it had started to show signs of rust but was not in their opinion rust enough at 1yr old with 4,000 miles on clock. Come on Jaguar listen to your customers who deserve better....

Had my 2014 very low mileage F type for a month now & love it but looked underneath last week and nearly had a fit .. it looks like a 20 year old car underneath so I've had the whole underside Waxoiled today as I live on the coast hopefully that will keep the corrosion at bay 🙈🤬

Had mine replaced under warranty in March, this was the condition of them on a 2016 Car with 20k, I also bought a tin of black Hammerite paint and got the dealer to give the new parts a coat just to be sure...

That is almost the same as mine was, and mine is stored over the winter, so anyone driving in salty winter road conditions😮.
