While being stopped at a stop sign with foot on brake the car suddenly accelerates. This is the 5th time this has happened, one time resulting in an accident. I have called Jaguar and they blame the driver. I replaced the throttle which contained the same tps sensor that has plagued Toyota. I am going to replace the pedal sensor and if that doesn't work I guess I will sell the car. Each time this happens the car is stopped with the right foot on the brake. The accident was at a school waiting in a line of stopped vehicles waiting to pickup students.

I drive a 2006 Jaguar xje sedan and have had problems 4 times with sudden acceleration when I come to a stop sign. I step on the brake and as the car comes to a stop it suddently accelerates. I have had to practically stand on the brake pedal to keep the car from going into the intersection with wheels screeching and the odor of rubber burning! the dealer, West herr Jaguar in buffalo, New York has kept the car for the past 3 weeks and could not find anything wrong with it. Now my wife and I are driving it and fear that it may happen again. Since the dealer found nothing wrong with the car, even though this acceleration happened to us, (last time was in January 2010), what can I do " have you had this incident occur with any other Jaguar"
