This is an expansion of a recall from April 2026.  NHTSA recall number is 26V599000.

Recall summary

Hybrid and electric vehicles have two electrical systems that work in tandem to propel the car forward. One drives the wheels and another, 12-volt one assists by powering fuel injection controls and other vehicle electronics such as lights.

The two systems are connected by a converter whose job is to ensure that the 12-volt battery is being charged while also supporting the electronic systems directly. 

Due to a software error, the converter may stop working resulting in the loss of 12-volt battery charging and eventually, a vehicle stall and a loss of exterior lighting.

Recall risks

A stalled and unilluminated vehicle may get hit by other motorists, increasing the risk of an injury. 

Warning signs

A battery charging issue will trigger a “Stop Safely Electrical Fault Detected” warning message on the display. If the driver continues driving, additional warnings may indicate that lane keep assistance is disabled or that suspension or stability control faults have occurred. 

Previous recall 

The carmaker already recalled more than 170,000 hybrid SUVs over the same issue in April 2026 and performed a software update. Further internal analysis, however, revealed that more vehicles are potentially affected by this issue and needed to be recalled. 

While Jaguar Land Rover received nearly 400 claims and field reports, it is not aware of any accidents or injuries caused by this problem.  

The repair

Dealers will update the vehicle’s software to ensure stable 12-volt battery charging. This repair will be free of charge. 

Notifications to the owners will be mailed by November 13, 2026.
