CASE STUDY Maker initially refusesto help even though corrosion started when XF was under warranty

After a few months, he discovered blisters on the front doors, which he initially believed to be small paint work imperfections. But the problem worsened, so he mentioned it to his local dealer, Parks Jaguar, during a service. Staff suggested taking it to an approved body shop, around 40 miles away.
