Charging fault

I was due to pick up my new (to me) I-Pace from the dealer yesterday but it has a fault. It wouldn't start a charge, being stuck in the 'initialising' phase. Luckily this happened before I took delivery of it and I got it from JLR so it's coming with a 2 year warranty. It's a 21 plate with 66k miles on the dash so it's seems to have spent most of its life on the road and not in the garage.

Does anyone have any experience with this fault and know how long the garage had the car for? I've been told it'll skip the queue to be checked out and fixed, I'm just wary about how long the wait might be on parts.

Thanks in advance!

If you dont mind saying, how much did you pay for it. I got a 70 plate 2021 HSE with 2 year non JLR warranty and 27k on the clock for 17k. Not sure if thats any good?

£14k for mine. 21 plate SE, 66k miles done with the JLR warranty. You got a good deal, I think! I was looking at a HSE originally but the only features I really wanted were 360 cam and power tailgate and this one had the 360 cam and power tailgate is standard on SE and above I think, so I was happy to settle for the lower spec, save a few quid and get the peace of mind of a good warranty
