What's wrong?

The high voltage battery pack in a 2020-2021 Jaguar I-Pace is the large traction battery that stores energy for the electric drive system. It feeds power to the propulsion system and is managed by software that watches battery conditions and limits operation when a fault is detected. The pack has to keep its cells stable while it charges, sits parked, and powers the vehicle.

On affected I-Pace vehicles, the battery pack can enter thermal overload, which means heat builds inside the pack instead of staying controlled. Jaguar's investigation points to battery cells with folded anode tabs as one contributor to internal short circuits, while the supplier continues inspecting cells for other contributing conditions. Existing protective software reduced the risk, but field evidence showed risk remained in packs built through the end of the 2021 model year.

There is no warning sign before failure. Jaguar's interim software restricts the maximum state of charge to 90%, limiting the energy stored in the pack while a permanent remedy is being developed.

Who's affected?

The 2020 and 2021 I-Pace scopes use the same high-voltage traction battery part number, T4K11674.

What's the safety risk?

A high voltage battery that overheats raises the risk of a fire. Follow Jaguar's interim instructions: park and charge outside and away from structures, and limit charging to 90 percent until the recall repair is complete. Repair will be free at any franchised Jaguar dealer once Jaguar opens it.

What should I do?

  1. Check your VIN to confirm your 2020-2021 Jaguar I-Pace is included in this recall.
  2. Watch for Jaguar's next owner letter before scheduling the final repair; the final remedy is still under development.
  3. Contact a franchised Jaguar dealer about the interim battery software update or OTA update that limits charge to 90% to reduce high-voltage battery overheating risk.
  4. Park outside and away from structures, charge outside, and keep the charge limit at 90% until the recall repair is complete.
  5. Call Jaguar customer service at 1-800-452-4827 with questions and reference recall number 26V067 when you call.

What happens at the repair

Until the final repair is available, follow Jaguar's interim guidance: park outside, park away from structures, charge outside, and limit the battery charge to 90%. For the interim repair, a Jaguar technician updates the battery software, or Jaguar sends an over-the-air update, to limit the state of charge to 90%. The final remedy is still under development, and the dealer repair will be free once it opens. Jaguar uses its standard reimbursement plan for owners who paid out of pocket for a related repair before the recall notice. Keep documentation and ask Jaguar customer service how to submit it.
