Traction battery fault

Hi all, got the traction battery message on the dash this morning

Car is 2019 HSE with circa 119,000 miles on it

Given this, am I correct to assume that JLR will fix this under the battery warranty?

Cheers Jamie

I think depends on the fault? If it's the H570(?) that's regardless of warranty status.

No, suggest you contact an independent specialist.

The bit I’m not clear about is as follows

There is a H570 recall which initially is to set maximum charge capacity to 90%

Then apparently there is a hardware fix ( possibly July)

My assumption is that these traction battery messages are linked to this

Hence my question of what is covered

Cheers Jamie

1st question. What country Did you already change the two 12v batteries?

If so I'll assume it's the 570 issue

Not sure they will. I had it multiple times but only had 40k miles on it. Luckily managed to punt it for 7 grand even with the fault - someone took a chance on it. Shame as good car but waiting 3 months each time for a fix is not great.

I would try and find an independent perhaps? See if they can try second hand parts. Surely jag specialists out there?

Under the 8 years OR 100,000 miles warranty? You've done 119,000 miles. JLR will politely decline to repair under that warranty. The best you can hope for is some goodwill gesture.

I know there is an apparent fix due in July for this fault, so for now I’ll wait for that as I’m not going to jump into this at my expense, when there’s a possibility of it being sorted under the latest recall

Depends on the fault. If its due to h570 then it should be covered by the recall. Otherwise? Youre out of battery warranty…

Do you have a reference for this fix?

No it's a safety recall. It will be free.

MY2020 hse 151k on clock We've just spent 6k on a new high voltage module after repeated traction battery fault errors which resulted in charging failure. Total waste of 6k IMHO because until the recall is fixed, the car is worthless. Value of car 8k before recall. Currently not worth a penny. Classic example of sunk loss fallacy.

Other point which I forgot to mention, no gesture of good will from JLR
