2019 JAGUAR I-PACE Steering Problems

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 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.

See attached document for complaint.

35mph limit road, moderate traffic, speed of 30-35mph suddenly car shows an error message on screen with regards to electrical fault of traction battery and reduced feel of brakes. On a contrary, brakes became extremely hard and unresponsive (zero braking efficiency) - car moving 30mph, no change in forward motion (minor jitter on the steering wheel), barely managed to change lane to avoid collision. If right lane would be occupied, that would be a certain collision with a car in front of me as I would have no place to bring the car to safety. Brake message cleared when the car stopped.
