My car has failed while driving four different times. Each time I am driving on a busy road, I get a "traction battery fault" warning, then the vehicle loses the ability to drive and completely shuts down. Each time leaving me and my family stranded in the middle of the road. These events have happened on 10/1/2023; 4/1/2024; 7/16/2024; and 12/20/2024. My car is still in the shop undiagnosed from the 12/20/2024 incident today 1/20/2025. A month. I have had to pay for battery replacements, rentals, towing, etc. now well past $10,000.
The car burst into flames and burnt up.

Jaguar notified owners of the recall's temporary fix and the ultimate remedy of buyback going back some months. The notice included contact information for Jaguar Relationship Centre. I have reached out on multiple occasions to the contact information provided in the recall notice to gain clarity on the buyback process and been told that the department we were told to contact has no information and can't help. To date, I've paid for out of pocket expenses incurred with the ownership of a car that will be bought back, have seen a depreciation in value of the vehicle which likely impacts the ultimate buyback price and have been provided zero information on when this process should be completed or how it will be completed. Jaguar has failed to remedy the specifics of the H514 recall in a timely fashion, now adding an H536 recall. Further the contact information they provided led to a department that was unable to provide any information regarding the ultimate remedy for the recall in question. I'd like the contact information of someone at Jaguar that can provide information on the process and a clear expectation of when it will be completed as H514 has been marked as closed though the final remedy for H514 has not been completed.

See attached narrative over JLR North America handling of recall H514 for the 2019 Jaguar I-Pace problem.
I have been trying for 3 months to get a status update on the buyback for my 2019 Jaguar I-pace. I have had my car updated with software fixes that doesn’t prevent a fire, and reduces the charging ability to 80% range which severely limits driving range, especially in winter. In addition, I have been instructed to not park inside as structures can catch on fire. I am feeling very unsafe with the fire risk on this car. Jaguar dealership can’t answer questions about next steps on the buyback, and Jaguar North America continues to offer little details on when we will be contacted and appears to be dragging out situation. We are walking on eggshells trying to figure out what to do, and just parking it outside and not using our I-pace. Really want resolution on this super frustrating and potential dangerous car situation.

Forced Recall/Reprogram reduced car battery range by 20%
Fire danger for years in my 2019 jaguar ipace. Unable to solve. Resolution is finally to buy vehicle back, no action 4 months now waiting for action. In addition to 13 months in the shop. This is not prompt as they claim and it continues to be used on public roads, carrying passengers, parking and chaging in congested areas including next to hospitals due to the inaction. Someone needs to force forward motion before someone gets hurt.
The contact owns a 2019 Jaguar I-Pace. The contact stated that the vehicle failed to fully charge. The contact stated that a traction battery fault detected message was displayed. The contact stated the failure was related to NHTSA Campaign Number: 24V633000 (Electrical System). The vehicle was taken to the local dealer, who was unable to determine the cause of the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The dealer referred the contact to the manufacturer for assistance. The manufacturer was contacted and filed a claim. The approximate failure mileage was 11,000.
Car has completely failed several times in the middle of busy streets including the freeway on ramp. Jag has replaced the 12v battery once, tried to update software and now the car is totally inoperable. Los Angeles Jag dealer has had the car for 5 months with no definitive communication nor reliable timeline. I have been told the car will be repaired and delivered for months, now they say Jag will not repair but I have not been contacted for the buyback. I need transportation. I need help to get them to expedite and pay me a the fair value.
2019 Jaguar I-Pace vehicles are at risk of having their high voltage battery overload and smoke or catch fire. The manufacturer now are attempting to buy back the vehicles at KBB fair market values. Their fix should come at no expense to the owner, however they sold defect free and now are depreciated due to the fire risk, which is a great expense to the owners. Owners may not be able to replace the vehicles at these buyback prices and are forced to turn down the buyback offers. This is an unfair/deceptive practice that leaves owners liable of the fire hazard by driving their vehicles.

I was informed of a recall (H514) to my 2019 Jaguar I-Pace stating that the vehicle would be reacquired by the manufacturer because of battery thermal overload defects that could not be remedied. I have contacted Jaguar's customer service hotline for the recall numerous times by telephone and email between November 2024 and now (February 2024). I am repeatedly given misinformation that the Jaguar buyback specialist team will be reaching out to me within the next few days, or next few weeks. I was originally told I would be contacted in early December, then told it would be no later than the end of December. I have reconfirmed on several occasions that they have my correct phone and email contact information. There has been no communication whatsoever about next steps for the buyback, other than to tell us to continue to wait. I confirmed with the Jaguar customer hotline that no one has opened a case on my vehicle, yet and that I must just continue to wait. In the meantime, we are instructed by the recall that the car may have a battery thermal overload while parked, that we cannot charge to more than 80% capacity, and that it must be parked outdoors rather than in the garage. I have patiently waited for 3 months under these very limiting conditions to my car, with severely reduced driving range and risk that my car could overheat and cause a fire or smoke at any time while parked. Jaguar either is highly disorganized or they are deliberately refusing to comply within a reasonable time period with the recall buyback remedy. Please order Jaguar to contact its affected recall customers and to reacquire the vehicles without further delay, which is a safety risk to everyone.
My 2019 First Edition I-Pace is subject to Jaguar recall H514, as per both the NHTSA and Jaguar web sites the solution is to repurchase the vehicle from me AFTER decreasing my max charge to 80% significantly reducing my available range, to the point I cannot rely on the vehicle for trips I was able to complete with no issue prior to the reduction in max charge. I have called Jaguar multiple times, as well as sending them email requesting status, in every contact the response from Jaguar has been as follows: "Customers affected by the H514 recall will be contacted in the coming weeks by a specialized team dedicated to handling this process. This team will provide detailed information and discuss available options for your vehicle." My last communication from Jaguar was Jan 6th. It is now two plus weeks post the last email, and still no contact from Jaguar, while driving a car that does not meet the specifications as stated by Jaguar when I bought the car. At this point it appears that Jaguar is purposely dragging their feet to induce owners to take the drastic action of trying to trade their car in on something different, when it is well known the cars are effectively non sellable due to the battery issues. Again, reading numerous owner forums some owners have just given up and are buying a replacement vehicle and dealing on their own trying to dispose of their 2019 I-Pace. My understanding is that once it was determined that repurchase was the only recourse that the NHTSA has an expectation of timely response from Jaguar to owners on completing this unfortunate process. Clearly, just from my own experience, this has not been an expedited process. I am hopeful that NHTSA can provide some leverage with Jaguar to actually execute on this process in a good faith and a timely manner. Owners purchased these vehicles in good faith, and expect good faith response by Jaguar to a problem not created by the owners. Thank you
I was informed over three months ago of the battery problem with a chance of fires. I’ve been calling JLR, and keep getting told the same thing: that they are in the process of reaching out to customers to buy back the vehicles since they can’t fix the problem, and “someone should be in touch in about 2 weeks”. Nobody has contacted me via either phone or email. My last calls to them were on 1/31 and 2/15. Same response. Given this is a serious condition, how can they wait for 3 months?? I would like to get to resolution soon so that there are no safety issues that I have to constantly worry about.
I was notified on the 6th of November 2024 of a H514 safety Recall; it is now the 19th of February 2025 with no fix communicated. This is beyond what I believe is 'a reasonable amount of time' to remedy this defect.
Car recalled with buy back remedy under 24V-633 and H514 recalls. Timely resolution has not been provided as it has been over 5 months since the H514 recall and it is not reasonable to expect a customer to park and charge outside while limiting charge to 80%. The hazard has not been mitigated with no attempt by Jaguar to contact us to buy back the car in the past 5 months (told we'd be contacted within the next few weeks in December 2024). Attempted to contact JLR customer service relationship center on 4/7/25 with high call wait time.
Our car has been identified by Jaguar as part of the recall and we completed the software update to restrict battery charging. We opened a case with Jaguar on Nov 4, 2024 and were promised weekly updates. To date we have received NO updates or communication. We spoke to a representative last week and was told a dedicated team is working the cases but they have no ability to speak with the team. Additionally, I asked to be escalated to a manager to know where our case is and when we could expect a proposal for next steps. The Rep told us a call back will take 8 business weeks and that manager would have no information about our case. We are looking for an update and what the next steps are.
With respect to this recall: Nov 18,2024 Manufacturer Recall NumberH536 NHTSA Recall Number24V-633 Recall StatusRecall Incomplete, remedy not yet available Remedy As a final remedy, JLR will reacquire vehicles from affected customers. JLR has not reached out to me on the next steps and I'm driving around with a vehicle with a known risk including thermal overload. JLR shouldn't have an indefinite timeline to execute the final remedy, reacquire of vehicle. I submitted a reacquire request to JLR customer service in Nov. 2024, but have yet to hear back from JLR after 3 months.
The results of this voluntary recall is not acceptable with the owner of this vehicle. Please read the attach document. I am requesting that NSTSA require that they replace all the batteries if that corrects the issues. If not then they should replace the car.
The vehicle has a recall. With JAG stating that there is a temporary fix. In addition all the previous software updates, according to the dealer service department, simply caused a "HIGH VOLTAGE ERROR" light to continuously pop on. I have asked the dealer to perform their interim fix, but they are telling me that at this point they do not know how to do it.
The contact owns a 2019 Jaguar I-Pace. The contact stated while driving at various speeds, the driving range mileage was reduced abnormally. The contact stated that upon charging the vehicle, the battery charge failed to exceed 74 percent on several occasions. The contact stated that while going on a 90-mile road trip, the driving range was 170, and the vehicle shut off while driving 65 MPH with low-power Eco Mode displayed. The vehicle failed to restart and was pushed to the side of the road. The messages "Battery Fault" and "Restricted Performance" were displayed. The vehicle was towed to the charging station of the motel where the contact was staying. The vehicle was then towed to the local dealer, where Jaguar Campaign Number: H514 was performed. The contact stated that upon attempting to recharge the vehicle later, the contact noticed that the vehicle failed to fully charge. The dealer was contacted and informed the contact that the interim recall repair had reduced the battery charge to 80 percent. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and denied reimbursement for towing and rental vehicle fuel expenses. Additionally, the manufacturer had not informed the contact of the final recall remedy which involved the re-purchase of the vehicle. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The failure mileage was approximately 40,000.
See attached document for complaint.
All 2019 Jaguar I-Pace's were subject to numerous recalls due to battery issues for fire risk. The latest recall limited range and battery to 80% and its stated that ALL 2019 would be bought back. It has been months and Jaguar has yet to offer any recourse. I have called and emailed and keep getting told a specialised team would be contacting me in 2 weeks. Its been 3 Months and they same thing is being said. My vehicle is a fire hazard so I am constantly in fear that it will catch fire in my drive way (cannot park in garage per instructions) and potentially catch house on fire. Furthermore, we cannot functionally use car as intended as the range is severely limited. I would like to have Jaguar move forward swiftly with the buyback, as from what I can ascertain they will use KBB valuation but since the notification of buyback the value of I-Paces has precipitously fallen as they drag their feet. I have attached the notification on Jaguar's Recall portal with the following language: Repair Description As referenced in the previous letter, your vehicle will, as an interimcondition, have the maximum state of charge altered to 80%. This will protect your vehicle until the re-purchase is complete. The maximum driving range of your vehicle will be reduced accordingly. There will be no charge to owners for this repair.Separately, Jaguar will reach out to you and seek to work with you to arrange the re-purchase of your vehicle,with the aim of completing this as quickly as possible.
My car has been limited to charging only to 70%. I often smell a kind of burning plastic when driving, but no smoke or fire. In addition the console display often freezes up or is completely blank.
My Jaguar dealer implemented what they said was a H514 interim recall update remedy on my 2019 I-Pace while it was in for other repairs. This remedy action is stated on this web site to "have their maximum state of charge altered to80%". Not less than or more than 80%. My dealer apparently gave a false high temperature signal to the current H441 software in my car and the car tripped to prevent charging > 72%. This brings in a large message on the dash "Traction Battery Fault". Jaguar is apparently taking a shortcut that does not meet their stated response to the NHTSB as to what they will do for the interim update. Truthfulness in Jaguars reporting to the NHTSB is in doubt due to this action.
I received a Recall Notice dated 7/18/2023. I reached out to the manufacturer to obtain the new battery. As requested, I took the vehicle to my local dealer at which time they verified with corporate that my car needed the new battery as noted. I was told that the car could catch on fire because of the faulty battery. I was, of course, afraid to drive the car with me or passengers. I made many calls and sent emails to two different corporate reps at Jaguar. Many calls were not returned and emails were not answered. I believe that my local dealer also reached out to corporate in my behalf. I was advised that the car should not be garaged or close to any structures. Because of this, my car was moved to the street. Jaguar never got back to me to send the new battery to my local dealer for replacement. Had they replaced my battery in a timely manner, the car would have been stored in a garage when not in use. Since the car was exposed to the elements for Safety reasons, it blew up during the hurricane Helene on [XXX]. I am very disappointed with Jaguar Corporate for not fixing my recall so that my car could be in a safe place during Florida hurricanes. I feel that Jaguar owes my the value of the new battery to enable me to buy a new vehicle. Please advise. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Won't charge beyond 72% and is at risk of fire when parked.
My vehicle is part of the jaguar recall H514. I have started the buyback process with jaguar and they are being slow and now I have a car that is only charging to 80% and I am scared to drive it. when I reach out to Jaguar they tell there is a process and that this will all take time. My issues is that it was me who started the process and per your recall notice they were supposed to contact vehicle owners and begin the process. It seems like its cut and dry and there toll free customer service line is not helpful.
The vehicle is in an unsafe condition for fire risk. It is currently parked and unusable. Jaguar was unable to apply the specified charge limitation when delivered to the Dealership for the interim safety measure. Jaguar is ordered to buyback this vehicle, but has not performed any contact for months sine the vehicle was brought in to the dealer. Repeated calls to Jaguar USA customer service has continuously repeated that they cannot provide any service or information. They state there will be a group created in the future for the service. NO INFORMATION or guidance is published for the buyback purchase amounts. Currently, I DO NOT have a vehicle that can be driven and I do NOT have a loaner vehicle.
We received a letter from Jaguar on 3/5/25 that our car has a fatal battery flaw that cannot be repaired which will necessitate a repurchase of the car. The flaw could result in a fire started by the battery. 7 weeks later and we have not been contacted by anyone from the third party group to start the process of the buyback of our recalled car. We proactively called the third party who confirmed they have our correct contact information. This concerns us greatly regarding the safety of our own property and our neighbors property since we live in a high risk wildfire district in Colorado. Every day that goes by is a day of worry that this car could put our family, neighbors and community at risk. Note: We did perform the prior recall repair (24V-633 or H514) which gates the charge to 80%. But that obviously isn’t the full solution since they are saying now it won’t overcome the underlying battery risk.

Multiple recalls for this VIN. My vehicle has had 2 recalls. H415 fault has occurred 2x. Starting with Recall H441: I was NEVER informed that there was a FIRE/safety hazard due to a recall. Safety Risk/Repair on Jags site read "A vehicle thermal overload condition such as fire or smoke can result in increased risk of occupant injury and/or injury to persons outside the vehicle, as well as property damage", & "This software provides an enhanced level of driver warnings in relation to battery condition and where the software determines a risk exists, the High Voltage battery charging capacity is limited to 75%" which happens to be 5% over the warranty degradation threshold. Aside from never receiving any recall notice, when i got my car back, they never said ANYTHING about these dangers, nor was my vehicle limited to 75% capacity. H514: This fault came on in 8 & 10/2024 so I made an appts. They had no appts availability in earlier October so i waited. I was told 2x prior to bringing the car in that this was not a warrantied item so they would not provide me a loaner. After getting the car back 19 days later, my ac was fully inoperable and the H514 fault kicked in again. I made an appt with another dealership who has had the car for 6 days. They just informed me the code didn't come back up & was not in the system after they drove my car 100mi. My concerns are Jaguar's lack of transparency & how they're dealing with everything. After JUST finding out that my car can set fire, being told to park away from my house [or any buildings] and that i could not charge at home, my anxiety is through the roof. 12/6 my cars "ready" to pick up with a very serious issue acting intermittently. I have no confidence driving the car. What if a fire occurs while i'm driving?, the systems shut down & I can't exit in a fire? Perhaps i pull into my driveway/garage to unload something and the car ignites. ?'m at a charging station filled with EVs & fire starts?!
Inquiry Regarding Safety Recall and Manufacturer Responsability Dear NHTSA, I am seeking your assistance regarding a vehicle I imported from the United States to Iceland. The vehicle, Jaguar i-pace 2019, has been identified as having a defective and dangerous battery, which is part of a safety recall in the U.S. Despite this, the manufacturer’s representative in Iceland refuses to honor the recall or provide a replacement battery, citing that the car is no longer in the U.S. Given the serious safety risks, I would appreciate guidance on what steps I can take or what recourse I have. Is there any possibility to enforce the recall or ensure the manufacturer takes responsibility even outside the U.S.? Thank you for your assistance. Best regards, [XXX] [XXX] --- INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
Car is still unsafe to charge. Electric battery fire risk. Safety issue reported over 8 months ago. Needs to be recalled. However, buyback was announced more than 6 months ago with no action.
The contact owns a 2019 Jaguar I-Pace. The contact stated that the vehicle failed to start. The vehicle was towed to the dealer, where unknown wiring harnesses and other unknown parts were replaced; however, the failure persisted. The dealer informed the contact that they were waiting for an unknown part to repair to the vehicle. The vehicle was not repaired. Additionally, the contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 24V633000 (Electrical System); however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. The local dealer informed the contact that the vehicle failure was not related to the recall. The dealer advised the contact that the vehicle needed to be repaired, and then the manufacturer considered repurchasing the vehicle under the recall. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was aware of the failure and provided the contact with rental car assistance. No further assistance was provided. The failure mileage was approximately 50,000. VIN tool confirms parts not available.
On July 9, 2024, I contacted the Jaguar Columbia dealership in Columbia, South Carolina to schedule an appointment for the recall service. I spoke with Tabor in the service department who told me that Jamie Alexander, the dealership’s shop manager, advised him that Jaguar Columbia is not EV certified and the dealership does not have the equipment to complete the safety recall repair. On that same date, I contacted Jaguar’s Customer Relationship Center (as listed on the safety recall notice) to report the matter and ask for resolution. I was advised that there is an open case with Jaguar’s consumer affairs department that was started on July 1st. I was advised that the Customer relationship center could do nothing to help me because of the existence of this case that Jaguar has open. I have not been contacted by Jaguar regarding the status of the case and when I asked the Jaguar customer center for information to contact the Jaguar consumer affairs department, I was advised that the customer relationship center does not have any contact information for the Jaguar consumer affairs department. I would like to be contacted immediately by Jaguar regarding acceptable resolution.
Jaguar I-Pace was being charged, at home, using the 220v charging system. The charging unit had been in use with this vehicle for 5.5 years. On July 4, 2024 at 11:53 am, white smoke was observed coming from underneath the car. The charger was disconnected from the car. The fire department arrived and moved the car away from the house. At that time no smoke was visible and an infrared detector showed no heat. Approximately 1/2 hour later the car burst into flames, from underneath the car, just before the rear tire. The car was consumed in flames before the fire department could put the flames out.
We are experiencing what appears to be a known problem with our iPace [XXX] This issue seems to be with the parking brake actuator and it is unclear based on other reports if the actuator could malfunction and engage while the vehicle is moving.

There is a recall regarding fire danger with the battery. No solution to fire issue. We are left with a dangerous car still subject to fire potential, as well as significantly degraded range due to a software update forced on the car by the recall.
