Vehicle Information 2020 Jaguar E-PACE VIN: [XXX] Approx. mileage: 84,000 Component Affected: Powertrain / Cooling System / Engine Complaint Description: My 2020 Jaguar E-PACE began showing coolant-related warnings and mechanical issues around 60,000 miles. Despite professional servicing, the vehicle experienced a catastrophic failure at 84,000 miles. The vehicle is now completely inoperable and parked dead in my garage. Jaguar Land Rover provided contradictory instructions: they advised I visit a JLR retailer, but later questioned me for adding oil at a certified shop. Most concerning is that Ms. Jeane Meyer, Executive Liaison at JLR, closed the case without even offering an inspection or diagnostic. She told me I was “on my own” with the issue, showing complete disregard for customer safety or support. This is a major mechanical failure in a vehicle under 5 years old, and I believe it indicates a manufacturer defect. I am requesting NHTSA to investigate.

I own a 2020 Jaguar E-PACE (VIN: [XXXX]). At around 84,000 miles, the vehicle experienced a complete transmission failure that requires over $20,000 in repairs. This failure occurred despite multiple prior visits to the dealership for coolant-related warnings and repairs. The vehicle is less than 5 years old. I believe this may be a manufacturing defect affecting the powertrain or cooling system. The failure poses serious safety concerns, especially considering the sudden loss of power on the road. I request an investigation into this issue. •VIN: [XXX] •Mileage: ~84,000 •Dealer/City: Jaguar North Miami – 2300 NE 151st St, North Miami, FL 33181 Key history (summary): •Coolant warnings logged five times: [XXX] [XXX] (linked to water-pump leak/repair); [XXX]; [XXX]; [XXX]. •Documented repair: Water-pump replacement on 06/17/2022. *Please escalate this matter*: I cannot justify absorbing a $20,000 repair for what is clearly a manufacturer defect on a five-year-old Jaguar, and I don’t want this issue to end my relationship with the brand.

The engine coolant light is on consistently. I had to start taking pictures. I was told by a service advisor that a recall was just done on the E-Pace. Yet I have never received any documentation at all. This issue has been going on since 2020. The car cabin has filled with fumes, several times while driving. I had to start taking pictures., because AutoNation Jagur/Land Rover Southbay declined to give me documentation for all of the times I came in for a TOPOFF. I could not download all of the repair orders, and manufacturer correspondence. Thank you for looking into this matter.

At random intervals, the engine fan go into a 'roar' at 100% rpm and not stop until the car is shut off. This occurs regardless of the outside temperature (summer at 90f, winter at 30f aka just now). The fan noise is not proportional to the engine rpm and remains constant once it starts. The car can be shut off completely and immediately started and the fan will be reset and silent, sometimes for the rest of the day. The jet-engine sound from the fan is not fixed by turning the car off and on, just reset to the next daily occurrence. Our 9 month old e-pace will do this at least once a day if not more.

When the vehicle is ideal it makes a loud noise from the fan. It sounds like it is getting ready to take off.

When coming to a stop the or even when trying to pull out the vehicle will shut off and you have to turn the car off to restart it and then switch back to drive and then the vehicle will go but it may turn off again if coming to a stop.

My 2019 Jaguar E-PACE is showing code P26CB related to coolant pump performance. The vehicle is experiencing the same coolant/water pump failure symptoms reported in similar Jaguar vehicles, but my VIN was excluded from coverage. This issue creates risk of overheating, engine damage, and possible loss of power while driving. I believe additional affected VINs may not have been included because my vehicle is now showing the same known failure symptoms despite not being covered.

Description of Incident: While driving on the highway, my 2019 Jaguar E-PACE suddenly and without warning lost power, putting myself and others at serious risk. The vehicle went into limp mode with no prior indication of any issues. Once the failure occurred, a warning message appeared on the dashboard stating “Gearbox Fault,” and the transmission temperature began to rise rapidly. This failure occurred during active highway travel, with no safe shoulder or emergency lane available due to nearby construction. I was nearly rear-ended as I attempted to safely navigate off the road. This incident could have resulted in a serious accident. The issue has been confirmed and reproduced by a certified Jaguar dealership, which has inspected the vehicle and verified the problem. The vehicle displayed no warning lamps or messages prior to the failure. The safety risk this defect poses is extremely concerning, and I am requesting a full investigation into this matter. Component(s) Involved: Transmission / Gearbox System Available for Inspection: Yes, vehicle is available upon request Confirmed by Dealer: Yes Inspected by: Jaguar Dealership Warning Lamps/Symptoms Prior to Failure: None

L-front tire showed a sidewall bubble. The tire could have blown out while running at a hish rate of speed, and caused loss of control the dealer (checkered flag, virginia beach, va)., has the tire. They think it was a curb hit. I have a photo of the tire issue. I was told, by the dealer service writer, this was not the first tire seen at this selling dealership with this issue. I inspected the tire and there is no way this could have happened by hitting a pothole or curb and not have any scratch or dent in the rim had i hit hard enough to cause this issue. Repair was to purchase a new tire at a cost of $346.42
