Jaguar I-Pace Recalls

The Jaguar I-PACE has 21 recalls covering 2019 through 2024 model years, with the most serious being a high-voltage battery fire risk that affects the entire production run and has required multiple rounds of repair after earlier fixes proved incomplete.

The battery fire issue is the defining recall story for this model. Across 2019-2024 vehicles, the high-voltage battery can overheat and catch fire. The 2019 model year has the most layered history: the original repair was found to be incomplete, follow-up repairs were also found insufficient, and several subsequent campaigns were issued specifically for vehicles that had already been through prior repair attempts. On 2019-2020 models, a separate but related concern involves battery module fasteners that may not have been tightened properly, allowing electrical arcing at the internal busbars, which also raises fire risk. Owners of 2019 models in particular should confirm with a dealer which repair stage their specific vehicle has reached.

On the braking side, 2019-2020 vehicles have a recall covering a delay in braking response when the regenerative braking system fails. Rather than the friction brakes engaging immediately as a fallback, there is a lag before the vehicle begins to slow, extending stopping distances. The 2019 model year has an additional filing for the same underlying issue.

A single 2020 vehicle was recalled because the front passenger seat frame was missing fasteners, leaving the seat without enough structural strength to properly restrain an occupant in a crash.

The 2021-2024 model years share a turn signal indicator recall: when a turn signal bulb fails, the dashboard flash rate does not speed up to alert the driver, so a burned-out signal can go unnoticed. On 2020-2022 models, the high-voltage coolant heater can fail on vehicles without a heated windshield, leaving the defroster unable to clear the glass and reducing forward visibility. The 2021-2022 model years also have a pedestrian alert recall, where the vehicle does not produce sufficient warning sound when stationary and reversing.
