Dear Daniel Feng,
Thank you for contacting Jaguar Cars.
At this time, there is not a way to turn off this feature.
We are always receptive to customer feedback. This is one way we
learn of concerns with our vehicles and of improvements or changes desired
by our customers. The information is then categorized and channeled to the
appropriate department.
Sincerely,
Colleen Hogan

I purchased my 2006 Jag a few months ago from Livermore Jaguar.
Had I known at the time that I purchased it that I could not have my wife
program the Nav system while I was driving, I would have never purchased the
car. The vast majority of other luxury cars do not impose this safety
feature on their buyers. Why do you? I just completed a JD Powers survey and
have given you a failing rating. I am currently also allocating 1-hour of my
time per week to informing as many people as I can on the internet, i.e.
blogs, newsgroups, jagtalk, etc. not to buy a Jag based solely on this
feature. As you can see, I am very dissatisfied. The only way you can make
this up to me is to have my dealer remove this safety feature...
Sincerely,
Daniel Feng

If it is that offensive to you, simply replace the Jaguar unit with one of
many others available. The other option is to live with it and understand
that driving is a privilege and should be taken seriously. That means keep
the distractions to a minimum. Distracted drivers are responsible for a
huge percentage of accidents.

ROFLMAO!
Yeah.....THAT's about to happen!
Then, after the accident you cause while programing your nav system in
motion because your wife isn't with you, YOU sue Jaguar for allowing such a
dangerous driving situation to take place by eliminating the safety feature
that requires you to pull over to program the system.......even though you
insisted on it.....
......the legal argument usually suggests that the car company is the
"professional" and should have known better than to allow you, the "poor,
unsuspecting consumer" to badger them into bypassing a safety device that
was built into the car for a reason.
The "professional" company and dealership should have known much more than
the "poor, unsuspecting consumer" about such potential hazards, and should
take full blame for bypassing the system, and setting up a circumstance
that was beyond the control of the "poor, unsuspecting consumer.".
You're a putz!
Oh, BTW.....
Should you ever find someone dumb enough to tamper with and re-program your
system - or even if you don't - your public-record letter to Jag has just
set you up for a closer investigation in the event you ever DO have an
accident of ANY kind.....
DUMBASS!

Before you buy a Jag, Read This!
> I pretty much always know where I am going.
I used to think that until my wife got an S-type with satnav. On day 2
I had to go to the local Jaguar dealer to get some touch-up paint for a
one micron chip she'd found in the bonnet/hood. The dealers is in the
local town that I know well. I turned off the one-way system and bought
the paint. Then I realised that I was faced with a circuit of the rest
of the one-way system or nipping out the dealers back gate into a maze
of twisty side roads on an estate I'd never seen. The navigation took me
through the estate and right back to where I'd entered the one-way
system, saving me a detour of a couple of miles and perhaps 20 minutes
in the rush-hour traffic.

Now there's a classic case of rationalization for spending money on some
silly gimmick. Much like the guys with those 4 wheel drive trucks lifted to
the sky who finally get to brag about how practical they are when the snow
falls one day of the year.
