2020 JAGUAR I-PACE Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2020 Jaguar I-Pace has 9 recalls, the most serious being a persistent high-voltage battery fire risk that prior repair attempts did not fully resolve, leaving certain vehicles still at risk of the battery overheating and catching fire. The battery fire issue has been the subject of multiple repair campaigns, and some vehicles that went through earlier fixes may still be affected if those repairs were not completed correctly. A separate but related battery concern involves fasteners that may not have been properly tightened inside the pack, which can cause electrical arcing and raise the fire risk further. On the safety equipment side, one specific vehicle was built with fasteners missing from the front passenger seat frame, meaning the seat may not hold the occupant in a crash. Regarding braking, if the regenerative braking system fails, the vehicle takes noticeably longer to slow down than a driver would expect, extending stopping distances and raising the risk of a collision. There is also a heater concern that only affects vehicles without a heated windshield: the high-voltage coolant heater can fail, leaving the cabin without adequate heat and the windshield defroster unable to clear the glass in cold or wet conditions.
