TV star shaken after Jaguar brakes fail during drive

It is the second report of the brakes failing on this particular model while in motion. Earlier this week another I-Pace driver claimed to have found himself unable to brake on a motorway as the car accelerated. Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) said a full review is underway to determine the cause of this incident. Mr Phillips’ experience happened on New Year’s Eve 2023.

He had owned the car for more than three years and has now returned it. The safety of our clients and vehicles is JLR#38;s highest priority, the company said. Jaguar I-Pace offers regenerative braking, in which the energy created as the car brakes is re-captured and sent back to the battery. Thousands of the cars have been sold in the UK since 2018, which cost nearly £70,000.

In 2019, some Jaguar I-pace vehicles were recalled in North America because of a fault with the system.
