I own a 2020 Jaguar I-PACE with approximately 102,000 miles that is currently at a Jaguar dealership following a sudden failure to accept Level 2 charging in mid-June 2026 and has been there since. The vehicle initially showed fault code P0AA6-00, and the dealership subsequently replaced the 12V battery and charging module (440123457); after communication with the vehicle's systems was restored, they reported that 31 of the 36 modules in the high-voltage battery were failed or failing and that the entire battery requires replacement. My concern is that this may be related to the H570/H572 high-voltage battery recalls. My vehicle had not yet received the recall-related charging limitation software, and it had previously experienced a significant battery/electrical issue in June 2025 involving Restricted Performance, an isolation fault, and BECM reconfiguration/software that apparently resolved the issue at that time. The dealership is now attributing the 2026 failure to normal age-related battery degradation, but I find it difficult to reconcile that explanation with 31 of 36 modules reportedly failing simultaneously, particularly given the vehicle's prior isolation fault and the current recall's stated concerns involving internal battery faults, short circuits, and thermal overload. The dealership has told me they did not perform a thorough investigation specifically to determine whether the current battery failure is related to H570/H572, yet they have concluded that it is unrelated. I am requesting that NHTSA review this situation because I am concerned that a potentially serious high-voltage battery defect covered by the recall may have caused or contributed to this failure. In the meantime, they have quoted me $50,000 to perform a full HV battery replacement, as a potential option/resolution.

NHTSA complaint #11752760 — an unverified report by a vehicle owner.
On XXX, I was the sole passenger in a driverless Waymo (XXX) in [XXX]. Pickup: Chase Field ~4:14 PM. At ~4:25 PM on [XXX], a multi-lane urban arterial, the automated driving system decelerated the vehicle without cause to ~10 mph and held that speed in the number one (leftmost) lane. There was no obstacle, pedestrian, emergency vehicle, work zone, signal, or traffic condition to explain it. Traffic passed at normal speed in adjacent lanes. The system merged to the center lane, then returned to the number one lane, still at ~10 mph. The vehicle was a slow-moving obstruction in a live travel lane. There was no steering wheel, no pedal, no human driver. I could not accelerate, pull over, or exit the lane. My exposure to a rear-end collision was created solely by the ADS and could be ended only by the ADS, which was not ending it. I called Waymo rider support. The vehicle remained at ~10 mph. About 30 seconds in, a remote agent overrode the system and restored normal speed. Key finding: the malfunction did not self-correct. The vehicle did not detect the anomaly, resolve it, or degrade to a safe state. It operated hazardously until a remote human took control. The system’s own safety architecture did not catch it. A human did, only because I called. Waymo confirmed in writing that it verified the event as described, then declined to provide root cause, telemetry, or any investigative outcome absent legal process. I request NHTSA determine: (1) whether this was reported under the Standing General Order for ADS vehicles, or deemed below threshold and on what basis; (2) whether unexplained deceleration, sustained low-speed travel in live lanes, or failure-to-self-correct events have been reported for this fleet in the Phoenix ODD; (3) whether an ADS that cannot correct its own hazardous speed loss without remote human rescue meets any reasonable safety expectation for driverless operation on public arterials. Please contact me. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

The car is on its third battery replacement, now a total of 4 new batteries. Due to a known, ongoing issue that does not have a permanent fix. Resulting in the car being in the repair shop for months. It is recommended to not park in the garage due to the chance of a fire. The battery cannot be charged more than 90% for safety issues.
NHTSA complaint #11748271 — an unverified report by a vehicle owner.
On [XXX] at approximately [XXX] pm, I was driving in the right-most lane on [XXX]. Traffic in my lane was stopped due to a red light. An autonomous Waymo vehicle was originally stopped at a yield sign on an intersecting side road behind my position. Instead of waiting for a legal gap in the traffic lane, the Waymo vehicle illegally entered the designated bicycle lane to bypass the stopped vehicles. When the traffic light turned green and my lane began to move, the Waymo vehicle abruptly merged into my lane directly from the bike lane (my right-side blind spot). It forced its way in front of my vehicle, requiring me to brake and use my horn to avoid a collision. The autonomous vehicle performed an unpredictable, illegal passing maneuver in a non-vehicle lane (bike lane) and merged from a blind spot, causing a near-miss with a human-driven vehicle that had the right-of-way. I have front and rear dashcam footage capturing the entire incident. Because the raw video files exceed standard upload limits, I have uploaded the unedited footage here for investigators to review and download: [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
NHTSA complaint #11747089 — an unverified report by a vehicle owner.
At approximately [XXX] PT on Saturday, [XXX], my daughter and I were riding as passengers inside the car when the car itself couldn't make the traffic light in time before it turned red and got caught in the intersection of [XXX] and [XXX]. It started backing up into the oncoming traffic going across on [XXX] with the car itself backing up on [XXX], and kept on going backwards to the point that it fully blocked one out of the 2 lanes on [XXX] going towards downtown. This blatantly broke traffic laws, with cars going around us so it wouldn't hit us. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
