good god, you're right, it is overland in the actual recall lol we're so doomed

 

I just called Jaguar for H-514 and was told this new recall H-536. It is about High Voltage Battery and Buy back. No details except saying we should get the letter very soon. I called the dealer and was told the same thing.

 

It is interesting that the software update does not work in the US, is that due to the imperial system?

And:
"Customers should also limit their charge to a maximum of 80% until the
recall remedy has been completed."

Then they should come with a software update where we can set the limit.

 

There is a facebook group for the buyback and someone posted that calls should be expected in end of March, have all your documents ready to expedite the process. I mean we wouldn't want to be the reason to hold this up so much

 

Thought JLR was to send out a letter on February 7th?

 

 

Thanks for sharing!

Does anyone know if there are physical / mechanical differences between 2019 and 2020 cars? I’m wondering whether my 2020 is, in reality, still at risk for this thermal overload issue - but being that more 2019s were sold than 2020s, and that the 2020 batteries are obviously newer and maybe haven’t started experiencing this yet, that there just haven’t been enough instances for JLR to confirm / expand the buyback program - or at least not yet. Or is there actually something different about MY2020 cars?

Also - is the current buyback program limited only to cars in California?

Curious what the odds are that is east coast folks with MY 2020s might a) still be at risk and b) eventually receive a buyback offer

…fwiw, we have been very happy with our ipace and experienced only 12v issues and continue to enjoy the car. Having said that, I’d definitely consider a buyback offer, if nothing else only to buy a newer ipace

 

Once again: H514 is for all 2019 cars in the US except H484 cars (although some of those have become victims too). The state of purchase or residence does not matter.

You and others can speculate all you want about why only 2019s in US are victims of this recall. It isn't of value to owners of US 2019s. You won't get definite answers until/unless JLR publicly releases information.

 

So only US? Not EU MY2019 ?

Have we still not figured out how to make a battery?

 

Tonight while waiting for a food order I looked at my vehicle BECS software page, and noted the the first 2 numbers have change from BY to what looks like an X with a box around it. Or an hourglass. Strange that I had a mysterious 12V battery failure this week that magically healed itself later. I have now disconnected my TCU.

 

Strange, That character is often used when trying to display a character that is not available in the display font (symbols, for example).

 

Hi Trielectric. I went to check my BECM version, it still has BV.
Maybe the 'hourglass' indicates a pending update ?

 

So, now that our cars are being re-purchased, what are we replacing the I-Pace with? As far as I can tell, there's no direct replacement for it on the market.

 

Waiting for the tariff situation to stabilize (I own a company in Canada making scientific equipment and may need to take a haircut as I adapt to the US doing a lot less science), but am looking at the Macan 4S. I had an RX450h before the I-Pace, so this moves me back to a more SUV shape and it still has real buttons for some of the functions (I really hate the tablet hot-glued to the dash look).

 

There is no direct replacement, but al thought the aesthetics are different I really liked my partners GV60. It drove well, had nice aesthetics and a good infotainment and safety features.

 

Hi I got a ipace jaguar 2019 model electric it's been showing high voltage system fault on the dash its been in jaguar had 3 hours work on and they can't find the fault they want another 9 hours work to find it costing over 3 thousand pounds is this the same problem you got thanks

 

I received my call from Jaguar NA today, officially starting the buy-back process. From today, I'm told it will take 30-45 days to complete. It so-happens that I also met with an attorney today. He believes - should it come to it - that we may have a case against Jaguar for breach of contract (warranty). That said, does anyone have a copy of the 2019 warranty they could upload here? Thanks!!
