I’m waiting for the tow truck that Jaguar Roadside has dispatched. I’m about an hour and a half from home so having to find a rental. I was told not to bring it to the dealer in Columbia where I’m stranded, so I had to call Jaguar Roadside back and change the drop off. This is the second time I got stranded, first one was my fault and this one not so much. Car just turned over 29,000 miles and I just ordered a new set of tires, hopefully I’ll still need them.
What happened was I pulled in at 20%. Was only going to charge to 50%. At about 45% I used the Jag app to precondition car for a 5 minute departure. After about 3 or 4 minutes it made a large bang and the car shook, I thought someone had hit me while parked and charging. I unplugged the charger and it continued to act as if car was still plugged up, as it was financially charging me. Called Electrify America and they were very nice but we’ll see. Anyway battery traction fault light and 12 volt battery went bonkers, no door locks, brakes pulsating, and general weird stuff. I’ll let you know what Greenville Jaguar says. Hopefully nothing major, but the loud bang concerns me.
