DESCRIPTION OF ISSUE AND THE EFFECT ON VEHICLE OPERATION
A potential concern has been identified on specific vehicles within the above vehicle range.
Following a field report of an issue that was considered to be mitigated through the completion of Jaguar Safety Recall H441, it was revealed that the recall action for H441 had been incorrectly completed by a retailer. Investigations revealed that some retailers have either used non-approved diagnostic equipment or a prior repair attempt was not performed correctly, where the Battery Energy Control Module (BECM) did not receive the required software update. As a result, the vehicle remains with the safety defect even though the retailer reported completing the safety recall.
An incorrectly repaired vehicle will continue to have a risk of vehicle thermal overload condition such as fire or smoke which can result in increased risk of occupant injury and/or injury to persons outside the vehicle, as well as property damage. The owner will not be aware that the prior repair was not completed correctly.
In line with recommendations made by manufacturers who have had similar issues and until such time as the safety recall remedy has been completed, retailers and customers should park away from structures. Where possible, vehicles should be charged outside. These precautionary measures should also be taken for 30 days after the update to allow sufficient time for the new software to analyze the High Voltage (HV) Battery condition and provide a driver warning if a risk exists.
ACTION TO BE TAKEN
JLR has taken the decision to recall affected vehicles to repair the vehicle.
Following procedures appropriate to your market and as required by local legislation, owners of affected vehicles should be contacted requesting that the owner contact their nearest retailer/authorized repairer as soon as possible to arrange for the repair to be completed. The National Sales Companies (NSCs), Importer, Regional Office or Government agency will contact the customers. If you have any questions about this process, please contact your NSC/Importer or Regional Office for more information.
Check the JLR Warranty Portal to make sure affected vehicles are correctly identified prior to starting this campaign. The Warranty Portal will be updated to reflect only those vehicles affected.
Retailers/authorized repairers are reminded that they must not sell vehicles identified as affected by this campaign until such time as the repair has been successfully completed.
An owner may indicate that a repair has already been completed for this concern, in which case the full cost of the repair should be reimbursed. Refer to the warranty section of this campaign for details of the Customer Reimbursement and Related Damage Process. At the time of confirming a booking for a vehicle repair, make sure you check the Warranty Portal to confirm if there are any other outstanding campaigns, to make sure the correct parts are available and adequate workshop time is allocated for repairs to be completed in one visit.

REGULATORY INFORMATION
Jaguar Land Rover North America, LLC and Jaguar Land Rover Canada ULC have informed the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and Transport Canada (TC) of their intent to perform a Safety Recall on certain 2019 to 2024 model year IPACE vehicles imported into the United States and Canadian markets. Information relating to this Safety Recall will be posted on the NHTSA and TC websites. United States Federal regulations require that retailers/authorized repairers must be notified within a reasonable time after the manufacturer decides that a defect that relates to motor vehicle safety or a non-compliance exists. United States Federal Law requires retailers/authorized repairers to complete any outstanding Safety Recall before a new vehicle is delivered to the buyer or lessee. Violation of this requirement by a retailer/authorized repairer, in the USA only, could result in a maximum civil penalty of up to the equivalent of $26,315.00 USD per violation and the equivalent of $131,564,183.00 USD for a related series of violations. This Safety Recall serves as notification to all retailers/authorized repairers in the United States and Federalized Territories and Canada that any affected new vehicles may not be sold and delivered for customer use until the Safety Recall repair is completed.
Jaguar Land Rover North America, LLC and Jaguar Land Rover Canada ULC recommends that affected sales demonstrator and loaner vehicles are repaired before use, and that used vehicles are repaired before sale. Retailers/authorized repairers who choose to proceed against this recommendation, where legally permitted, must clearly and conspicuously disclose the open Safety Recall notice to the applicable customers.
H459 – Chronology of Defect / Non-compliance Determination:
On September 8, 2023 a field report was received concerning a thermal overload on a vehicle. Investigations into the issue revealed that safety recall H441 was completed but this vehicle still exhibited the defect for which the recall was issued to mitigate.
Jaguar Land Rover North America (JLRNA) conducted an in-depth review of how the risk still existed on a vehicle where the recall had been completed. The investigation revealed that this vehicle was incorrectly repaired by the retailer who had used a non-approved service diagnostic tool, contrary to that which was specified by JLR and which did not have the software required to complete the H441 recall service instruction.
This issue was reviewed with Jaguar Land Rover North America and JLR Ltd’s HQ in the UK where it was discussed and the findings of the current state of the US investigation provided.
This issue was raised as a Product Safety and Compliance Committee (PSCC) investigation on September 26, 2023 with the request to the JLR Service Diagnostics team to define the scope of this matter and identify any further vehicles affected by the same condition.
The JLR Service Diagnostics team reported a methodology to the PSCC on October 3, 2023 and on October 10, 2023 confirmed this methodology was capable of identifying all vehicles which have been subject to incorrect diagnostic tool use.
The Service Diagnostics team presented the status of the investigation to the PSCC on October 10, 2023 and the findings from the identification of vehicles which had the incorrect diagnostic tool used to conduct the H441 safety recall. The PSCC agreed the issue would be progressed to the Recall Determination Committee (RDC) for consideration.
The RDC reviewed the investigation on October 12, 2023 and concluded there is a risk that the safety defect remains on vehicles unbeknown to the owner and that vehicles identified in the at risk population should be subject to a further safety recall to correctly conduct the originally issued recall action service instruction. The RDC also requested that the PSCC diligently monitor for any further uses of the wrong diagnostic tool and as needed update defect notifications with revised scope of affected vehicles and ensure any further vehicles are added to this recall action.
JLR has received 1 report of a vehicle fire in the US received on September 8, 2023.
JLR would like to advise you that during ongoing quality assessment of our product it has been identified that a possible safety related problem may occur on I-PACE vehicles within a specific production range.

Why are we contacting you?
Following a field report of an issue that was considered to be mitigated through the completion of Jaguar Safety Recall H441, it was revealed that the recall action for H441 had been incorrectly completed by a retailer. Investigations revealed the retailer had used nonapproved diagnostic equipment and the correct software was not downloaded to the vehicle concerned. As a result, the vehicle remains with the safety defect even though the retailer reported completing the safety recall.
An incorrectly repaired vehicle will continue to have a risk of vehicle thermal overload condition such as fire or smoke which can result in increased risk of occupant injury and/or injury to persons outside the vehicle, as well as property damage.
