NHTSA Complaint #11649486 — 2019 JAGUAR I-PACE

We started having issues with the battery back in 2023. Smaller batteries were replaced, and the car went in several times for "updates" due to recalls. The last two times were due to potential over-heating of the battery and a "track fault detected" error message displayed on the dash and the mileage decreased. Most recently the car was in the shop for 2 weeks early 2025 to replace a faulty cell in the larger battery. This was the most recent recall "fixing" the issue -- but when we received the car it wouldn't charge past 80%, meaning it was not fixed and able to charge to 100%. A letter received 3/19/25 confirmed the issue was indeed not fixed and that these cars needed to be purchased back in order to comply with safety measures. These cars are literal moving fire hazards. We have a short driveway and the car is next to our house and I am scared to have it on my property. The offers being sent are absolutely unacceptable, not even enough to cover what is remaining on the car loan. The purchasers of these cars should not be held accountable FINANCIALLY for the deplorable actions of LG and Jaguar/Land Rover.
