The 2020JAGUARI-PACE carries 32 consumer safety complaints in NHTSA's Office of Defects Investigation database for this specific model-year cohort. Within that volume, owners reported 1 crash, 0 fires, 0 injuries, and 0 fatalities. For crash performance, NHTSA's New Car Assessment Program gave this cohort an overall Not Rated/5 rating, with Not Rated/5 front crash, Not Rated/5 side crash, and Not Rated/5 rollover scores derived from standardized barrier and dynamic tests.
Component-level analysis is where model-year complaints become actionable: the top complaint category for the 2020 I-PACE is electrical system with 14 filings, followed by unknown or other (6) and service brakes (3). Concentration in one or two component groups is the classic signature of a systemic defect; a flat distribution usually reflects normal aging, warranty complaints, or isolated build-plant variability. This model year has 8 active recall campaigns, which means the manufacturer is obligated to remedy the covered defect at no charge for the life of the vehicle — the full NHTSA campaign numbers are listed below.
NHTSA currently has 2 investigation files overlapping the 2020 I-PACE. Owners comparing this cohort against neighboring years should pair the counters above with the complaint-by-year trend on the parent model page — a spike in a single year often tracks to a platform refresh, a new transmission supplier, or an updated ECU calibration. Use the related-complaint feed below to read raw owner narratives before deciding whether any pattern here affects your specific use case.

Iâve been getting a High Voltage System Fault on my dash. When I search for this online other users mention a fire risk, but when I brought it in to the Jaguar dealership they claimed they couldnât see the error and sent me back home with the car. The dealership doesnât seem to be taking this seriously. The error can pop up at any time, sometimes while driving, and sometimes just by pressing the start Aux button without pressing the brake to start the car. The error comes and goes and can go days without showing up but I seem to notice it when the temperature is hot out

on 12.25.24 I was driving when 4 warning alerts suddenly appeared on my dash: Forward Alert Not Available, ASPC not available, Stability control not available, Autonomous Emergency Braking System not available. I was able to pull over to a parking lot to read the alerts. However, when I tried to reverse out of the parking space to return home, there was no power in reverse. Luckily I was able to slightly roll backwards enough to make the turn in the mostly empty parking lot. If it had been busier I would have been unsuccessful. Once home the vehicle would not go into Park. Luckily I was not on a hill or I feel it would have rolled. The parking/emergency brake did not immediately engage. This has NOT been the first problem I've had with this vehicle and some of these systems. The manufacturer replaced the wiring harness about 6-8 weeks ago for nearly identical problems. Before that other components had to be replaced.

Traction battery fault. 2nd occurrence in lifetime of car. Was warned not to park car in the garage due to safety concerns. Replacing batteries 29 and 31 but will take over 2 months for parts to arrive. This issue is under warranty. Older jaguar I pace cars have been recalled due to this issue.
I was stopped at a stoplight, waiting to turn left. The light turned green I slowly engaged the accelerator. All occupants in the car felt the car jolt forward then the fault alarms went off. I was able to continue to drive the car safely and returned home. This is the second time this has happened within the last 30 days. The first time the vehicle bricked on me, it was towed to the Jaguar dealership in Tacoma Washington. There they reset the vehicle defaults disappeared, and it was returned to me. The first time this happened, I was turning into a parking lot and parked in a parking space. At that time the car would not go into park. I turned the vehicle off and turned it back on again. It remained in gear however the vehicle was not moving. It would not let me start it and I was unable to drive it.

High voltage battery is over heating. Constantly getting messages stating "Traction Battery Fault Detected" when charging or when there are days of extreme heats. In addition, when charging, a loud fan like noise is present and car gets really hot. Now my car is stating "Stop Safely Battery Fault detected " right in the middle of me driving and I lost power for about 14 seconds. Power goes in and out. Although my car VIN isn't included in the NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID: 24V183000 and Jaguar's number for this recall is H484. These vehicles were previously recalled under 23V-369. My car is affected by this same issues if not more

Several battery cells have failed and have required replacement on at least 3 occasions in this vehicle. I believe there is a fire risk and that the affected vin range of recall H484 was too narrow. Please consider widening the range of the recall to include the batch used in this vehicle as they are clearly defective as seen by the disproportionately high failure rate.
I noticed a strong mildew smell in car. So I searched around car to see where smell was coming from noticed foggy moisture on windshield along with water drips. So I did some more searching and noticed front and back floor mats were wet. I pulled them up and carpet underneath was also wet. I took car to dealer in May 2024 and basically they stated they couldnât find where water was coming from. And did I want to report water damage to my insurance company. I said ofcourse not because unknown water shouldnât be in car. Also, Informed them I researched several websites on this 2020 Ipace and several consumers have had the same problems and issues. Again they refused to fix and told me to come get car. Ok now in July 24. I get into car was able to reverse out of parking area and then couldnât put car into drive. So now Iâm struck in alley for hours until I finally was able to put in neutral and friend pushed into a grass field. Car was towed to same dealer where now they are now s

I own a 2020 Jaguar I-Pace. Last year H441 software update had been installed on my car as per NHTSA guidelines. To reach of the right car started giving me trouble. I was getting loud fan noise. A few days later I got a traction battery fault notification.Since then, the car has not been charging more than 72%. I gave the car to the dealership for service. They informed me that the H441 software had identified a battery fault within the high-voltage battery and is preventing the car from charging greater than 72%. A few days later they informed me that model number 14 in the high-voltage battery pack had a fault and needs to be replaced. As per the H441 recall, Jaguar is supposed to replace the battery free of cost. But the dealership is asking me for 6979.60 USD to replace the model. When I asked them why am being charged the amount when Jaguar is supposed to replace the pack at no cost, they informed me that my car is out of warranty. As per the customer notification letter sent fr
