JLR is recalling all I-Pace vehicles produced in Graz, Austria, since 5 June 2018 due to a fire hazard. The recall affects 6,367 units of the electric model. There is a risk that the high-voltage battery could overheat.

The manufacturer wants to update the software of the battery control module and replace the battery modules if necessary. According to a filing with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), there have been reports of eight vehicle fires in the US, but no accidents or injuries so far.
