From owner reports, verbatim
While driving my vehicle on numerous occasions, I get the alert “Stop safely, electrical fault detected”. I have to pull over and rest my vehicle before driving again. If I continue to drive, the car shifts into neutral and loses power. This is very dangerous and it will stop anywhere while driving. I took it to the dealership in VA where I lived at the time in 2023. I was told there was no issue detected. I took it to the dealership in PA after I moved in 2024 and was told it could possibly be the alternator which was replaced. The error still occurs on and off since then. This began in November 2023, 3 months after buying the vehicle. The vehicle was new and I first started getting the alert at 3,000 miles. I am now at 16,000 miles. The problem is still occurring. It has recently got worse and quickly shifts into neutral without getting any warning, then I lose compete power. I was recently driving and my car shut down in the middle of the road with no warning at all. I was stuck on [XXX] . My car was towed to Jaguar and I have no updates yet. I just saw the recall for the F-Pace E-Pace and land rovers. My car is doing the same reported in the recall. I am aware they share the same part causing this recall, the DC-DC converter. My complaints to Jaguar get overlooked and I’m told everything is fine. They do not care about the safety of their customers.

Too few reports in this category for a page of its own — they appear in the full complaint list.
Higher-selling and older vehicles accumulate more reports. Counts are not failure rates and are not directly comparable between vehicles that sold in very different numbers.
