Summary of Safety Defect: The factory-installed front windshield on my 2022 Jaguar I-Pace has physically detached and debonded from the vehicle frame along the upper roofline due to a failure of the factory urethane bonding system. In addition to structural detachment, the gap allows ambient moisture and water intrusion directly into the upper windshield housing containing the forward-facing ADAS camera cluster and optical sensors. Safety Risk: Active Crash Avoidance Failure (ADAS/AEB): Moisture intrusion and condensation directly impinge upon the forward-facing optical cameras, compromising core safety functions including Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB), Forward Collision Warning (FCW), and Lane Keep Assist (LKA). Optical distortion or sensor failure risks sudden false-positive emergency braking at highway speeds or complete failure to detect obstacles and pedestrians. Structural & Airbag Non-Compliance: The detached glass violates FMVSS 212 (Windshield Mounting), FMVSS 216 (Roof Crush Resistance), and FMVSS 208 (Airbag Support). The unbonded windshield cannot provide the reaction surface required for passenger airbag deployment during a frontal impact and compromises cabin rollover integrity. Electrical & Ejection Hazards: Water leakage past the upper frame threatens cabin electronics, wiring harnesses, and headliner modules, while the unseated glass presents an ejection risk at speed. Manufacturer / Dealership Response: The vehicle is under its original 5-year/60,000-mile Jaguar EliteCare warranty. The authorized dealer (Jaguar Land Rover Stevens Creek / San Jose) inspected the vehicle and initially agreed to remove and replace/reseal the glass. However, they now refuse and offer only an unapproved topical urethane patch. This violates AGRSS standards, traps moisture in the ADAS camera cavity, and fails to restore structural or airbag safety under FMVSS 212/208.

Pedestrian alert sounds
the federal safety agency received a petition on or about July 18, 2022, requesting that Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) 141 be applied to all electric and hybrid vehicles operating in the United States. The petition can be reviewed at under ODI Number 11486072. FMVSS 141 establishes performance requirements for pedestrian alert sounds for motor vehicles. The standard applies to hybrid and electric vehicles that have a gross vehicle weight rating of 4,536 KG or less or are defined as low-speed vehicles. The standard became fully applicable to all such vehicles manufactured on or after March 1, 2021.On January 27, 2023, the federal safety agency opened Defect Petition (DP) 22-005 to evaluate the subject matter described in the petition. On June 24, 2023 and as supplemented on June 25, 2023, the petitioner notified the federal safety agency he was withdrawing his petition.

What 2022 Jaguar I-Pace owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
See attached document for complaint.
The contact owns a 2022 Jaguar I-Pace. The contact stated that the vehicle was taken to the dealer because the vehicle failed to charge as needed. The contact then received a recall notification of the federal safety agency Campaign Number: 23V369000 (Electrical System). The vehicle was towed to the dealer where the recall was completed; however, the contact stated that while charging the vehicle, the garage and the vehicle overheated. The contact stated that the vehicle was extremely hot near the high-voltage battery area. The contact was concerned that the issue could cause a fire. No warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer however, the failure could not be duplicated. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and the contact was provided a case number. No further assistance was provided. The failure mileage was approximately 27,000.
While driving a 2022 Jaguar I-Pace for 60 miles, the car came to a stop sign near its destination. At this point, the car would stutter and shake when attempting to accelerate, simultaneously the car would roll back since there was a slight decline in the road. Brakes were full functional throughout this time. However, no warnings were shown during the occurrence and by the time the driver was able to apply the brakes, the car had already rolled back approximately 2 feet. After this time, the car accelerated but the issue repeated itself at the next stop sign and again at the destination. While approaching a drive way at the destination with a 10-15% grade, the vehicle completely cut power halfway up the drive way. At this time the car rolled back into the street, approximately 6 feet, before the driver could react and apply brakes. Had there been someone standing or walking on the side walk at the end of the driveway, it would have resulted in severe injuries or even death. At the time, no vehicles were on the road, however if there were, the vehicle would have rolled into traffic before the driver is able to react. Power was regained approximately 10 seconds after rolling backwards. The vehicle was then parked curbside for approximately 4 hours. Upon starting and driving the vehicle again, the same issues with stuttering/shaking when accelerating from a standstill and sudden loss of power with any incline continued. The next day, the vehicle had to be towed to a Jaguar Land Rover dealer for investigation. No previous repair work or modifications have been done to the vehicle. All care and maintenance had been done according to the manual. Battery was also charged to 80% as recommended by the manual for optimal battery life. At the time the issues had started, the vehicle showed 48% battery life remaining. No previous issues or problems had occurred with the vehicle, no recalls or TSB in place as of 9/12/22 for the 2022 model year.
This is an EV. Four times car stopped abruptly in the middle of the freeway. Everything was brought to the notice of dealership but still kept happening. This car has become a death trap for me and my family. I need immediate resolution for this case before something tragic happens.
