Low quality of material spoiling great driving experience

I have 3.0 diesel XF and I'm one of the few buyers to have it in India. The driving experience is great. The engine of the car has a sweet sound. There is no lack of power at any stage. The car's turbo boost of the car works well while overtaking. And paddle shifter add more fun to the driving. Inside the car is very well cut off from the outside world. hardly any noise could be heard in the cabin. The steering wheel is quiet direct and responsive. The leather seats in the car are comfortable. The back seat of the car seems quiet cramped but actually apt for an average Indian. The infotainment system is decent compared the the competition though hangs in between while using iPhones. The touch is not as responsive as expected. Everything has been working well since last 4 years now. But since couple of months i have started facing a weird problem. The buttons inside the car including the steering mounted controls, the AC buttons in the central console and the power window buttons have started melting. They have become sticky and have started to come out. I feel very disgusted at times using them. The cheap quality of plastics is letting the car down. Even after contacting the company no corrective action has been taken or should i say i haven't even got a courtesy email to acknowledge my problem. The only reply i have got the the car is out of warranty. I'm so surprised by the email as buttons inside the car should last life long. if 1-2 buttons were getting spoiled i would have accepted it that because of regular usage might have got spoiled. but all the buttons inside the car are spoilt or should i say melted. The customer service from the company is pathetic and is not accepting that its a manufacturing fault. i cant believe the a company like jaguar would use cheap quality products i actually feel cheated for paying 56-57 lac rupees for the car. The company should not expect the customer to pay for a manufacturing defect or for the replacement cost all the buttons. I have a very positive review for the cars driving performance but cheap quality plastics used inside the car doesn't make it feel upmarket or premium neither does the customer support of jaguar is helping the cause.

    Elegance Meets Performance
    As a proud proprietor of the Jaguar XF, I can attest to its terrific combo of elegance and performance. Its undying layout exudes sophistication, with sleek strains and a commanding presence. The XF's driving dynamics are nothing short of wonderful, providing a cushy experience and nimble coping. The indoors is a haven of luxury, offering top-class substances and the current era. However, the rear seat area is incredibly constrained, and fuel efficiency might be higher. Nonetheless, the Jaguar XF has been a satisfying ownership, showcasing the precise fusion of style and performance inside the luxurious sedan segment.

    Jaguar XF Luxury Sedan With Performance
    The XF offers a smooth, comfortable ride like other luxury sedans. But it also performs very well all thanks to its powerful yet efficient engines. I was impressed by its quick acceleration during my test drive it gets me crazy to buy it. The interior design and materials used feel very premium and they show why these are expensive. It is Expensive to refuel compared to similar sized sedans from other brands. I will surely recommend you to took a test drive of it once done you will love it.

    The Comfortable Car
    The Jaguar XF is a costly sedan that completely balances beauty, ordinary performance, and luxury. Its sophisticated layout, highlighted via the signature Jaguar grille and sleek traces, exudes timeless appeal. Inside, the opulent cabin showcases splendid materials and modern-day technology, offering a refined driving enjoyment. The XF's engine alternatives, which include green turbocharged 4 cylinders and effective V6 engines, deliver smooth power delivery and interesting performance. With its agile dealing and properly tuned suspension, the XF offers a lovely driving enjoyment that embodies the essence of Jaguar's legacy.

    Making Adventures Marvelous With Xf
    Starting from a price range of about Rs. 47.67 lakhs, the Jaguar XF comes with extraordinary features. I really appreciate its heads up display and it's fantastic layout. It's look is definitely a head turner on-road and off-road. The in car wifi service is quite amazing and its slim headlamps are very impressive. This car model comes in various colours. It is a five seater car that provides a very good mileage of about 14-19 Kmpl, making rides smoother and hassle-free. I have had the most comfortable rides with my Jaguar XF.
