Description:
Jaguar is not being forthcoming or acting in good faith in the process of the final remedy for the NHTSA Recall Number24V-633. They contacted me and provided an offer which I do not believe reflects the true value of my vehicle. I would have kept this car on which I owe nothing for another 5 years or more. The car was $80K new kept in mint condition and has a 100,000 mile warranty on the battery. It has 52,000 miles on it now. They made a small improvement in the offer after I complained but I am being forced to sell the vehicle back to Jaguar and purchase a new one or put myself and others at risk of injury or property damage due to this battery fire risk. They are providing no documentation of the offer amount they are providing which appears to be KBB from Oct 2024. The KBB for this car is diminished due to the battery issues which are the root of this recall. In addition to acquire a replacement vehicle I will need to spend time and money (sales tax, registration fees) for which they appear to be ignoring in the offer. They are also dragging the process out given how long ago this issue was identified. Seems it is the same issue that Chevy and others have dealt with from LG batteries, so why when Jaguar agreed with NHTSA to repurchase these vehicles in November 2024 are they not being responsive during the repurchase process. Is there anything we can do to improve this? I’m only asking them to come up from $27K to $30K to make the offer reasonable – not great but at least not insulting.
