2017 Jaguar Wins the Best Luxury Utility Vehicle Drivers Choice Award

Posted 6/21/17

Apparently Motorweek and our Jaguar technicians have a lot they can agree on. The nationally broadcast television series named The 2017 Jaguar F-PACE the Best Luxury Utility vehicle  as part of its annual Drivers’ Choice Awards at the 2017 Chicago Auto Show.

​“We are honored to have the F-PACE recognized by MotorWeek for Best Luxury Utility vehicle,” said Kim McCullough, Vice President, Marketing, Jaguar Land Rover North America LLC. “As the Jaguar brand’s first-ever SUV, the F-PACE stands out among an impressive field of competition for its sleek design and unparalleled driving dynamics.”

Award Winning Practical Performance

Criteria that determined the award included driving performance, technology, practicality, fuel efficiency and value. Considering Jaguar’s great value when it comes to repairs and a resilient maintenance schedule, it’s no surprise its F-Pace has earned this recognition.

“The Jaguar F-PACE simply wowed us,” said MotorWeek host, John Davis. “For their first attempt at a luxury SUV, Jaguar could have played it safe. Clearly, they did not. The F-PACE checks all the typical luxury boxes, and then tops rivals with benchmark performance. So, not only is the F-PACE a great luxury SUV, it’s a great Jaguar!”

Fix My Jaguar! Common Repairs We Hear

One of the most common reasons people call us to fix their Jaguars are coolant leaks resulting from plastic components that break down. These tend to be coolant Reservoirs and Thermostat Housing or rubber hoses that wear out over time or use. Air Shock Absorbers also tend to leak on the 2004 – 2009 XJ Series. Another big problem is Jaguar owners putting off regularly needed work on a timely basis. You won’t believe how many times I’ve seen a Jaguar rolled in with their brake pads next to smoking, rotors worn completely off! Procrastination is just a money hole when it comes to automotive work. Get it done sooner to avoid expensive repairs.
