2020 JAGUAR I-PACE Complaints

I was exiting a parking spot and I had my foot on the brake to start the vehicle and again to put the car in reverse. I backed out of my parking spot and turned 90 degrees to exit the parking lot. As I pushed down on the brake to stop and shift to drive, the pad that covers the brake pedal fell off, causing my foot to slip and hit the accelerator. I then struck another vehicle with the back of my car. In looking at the car after the accident, the pad that normally covers the brake pedal was on the floor of the car, between the brake and accelerator. At the body shop, one of the people said there is supposed to be a clip that holds the pad, but it was either broken or missing on my car.

My Jaguar I pace has been at the dealership since September, when I received the original 441 update. After receiving the update it no longer charged and continued to have the battery fault notice. I have been told an additional update was coming and has recently been applied, however that update repaired only the fact that the vehicle is not charging, it did not repair the electrical fault. I have been told multiple times that the vehicle will be receiving a replacement battery module, only to be told that they are waiting on an additional software update that may resolve the issue, however I am now being reissued my vehicle without the recall being repaired, however according to your records my vehicle has been repaired. It has not been repaired and I have been given no timeline on its repair.

From Day 1 of purchase, I have been unable to enter the vehicle or start it easily due to a recurring failure of the Transceiver Part # T4K1278. I have had six (6) dealership visits to rectify this concern. The part (T4K8326 Antenna) has been replaced once when I was not able to open the vehicle after multiple attempts. This did not solve the issue. The last dealership visit indicated the Transceiver (T4K1278) was likely the issue but the service advisor told me that the part was not able to be imported due to inherent failure issues. JLRNA (Jaguar Land Rover of North America) has ignored dealership inquiries as well as my own for the last two years. I have been stuck outside the vehicle so many times I cannot count and I have had multiple instances where I was unable to move in traffic due to this flaw. When trying to start vehicle, the dash warning indicates that the "Smart Key" is not present in the vehicle.

Was driving vehicle downhill on a small hill in Palm Springs when multiple error messages appeared in rapid succession on the information display, including 'traction battery fault - safe to drive with caution'. This was immediately followed by "pull over and stop the car" but before I had the chance to do so ALL the systems in the car ceased to operate and all electrical systems shut down. The breaks would not work, the steering would not work. I was still traveling down hill and unable to stop the car. The car continued for approximately 1/2 a mile and went through two stop signs. Fortunately it was early morning and there were no other vehicles , or pedestrians around, if there had been I would have been unable to avoid hitting them. My safety and that of any other driver or pedestrian who could have been on the road was seriously compromised. The car finally came to rest towards the bottom of the hill and I was able to exit the vehicle. Had this happened if I was traveling at speed on a freeway, I hate to contemplate the consequences. This same problem happened about 4 weeks ago, but fortunately the total shut down occurred while the car was stationery in my garage. The dealership towed the truck then and returned it to me a few days later, saying they had resolved all the issues - but clearly not. I have no confidence in the safety of this car. The dealer is collecting the car today to return it to the Jaguar dealership in Rancho Mirage.
