Update. Just read that some vehicles might not be able to charge past 75%
That’s quite a drop in range. Will those batteries be replaced? I think of it as buying a diesel car with a 60 litre tank only to be told you can no longer fill past 40 litres and, the manufacturer has no plans to replace the parts.

Correct; that is a temporary risk-mitigiation measure if the new software detects whatever anomolie appears to correlate with fires. Jag will replace the individual battery cells or the whole battery, based on further diagnosis.

I would see this as a good thing and not a bad thing. Best case scenario your battery is fine and no action needed, worst case you will get a new battery for free. Either way, your car will be protected from going up in flames.

Yes, when I booked in the dealership said that they would go as far as replacing an entire battery if need be. Or individual cells. That could work out as an awesome new lease of life. Those who have paid to have their battery replaced previously will also be refunded if the battery is deemed faulty.

Thanks for sharing. It seems MY21 and onwards won't be recalled but the update will be applied when Pivi 4.0.0 will be deployed OTA.
It doesn't say how and if the update will have an effect on charging curve and max energy stored in battery (and hence on range....)

Edit: H441 showed up on Topix for my car too (MY21)

Hi kermit68
Is TOPIX the only place to check if your car is on the list of cars needing an update? Is there another way of checking?

As far as i know that it should be the only reliable method. If you don't have a free topic account just send me the last 8 digit of your VIN by PM and I'll check for you if you want. 😉

Booked in for a 'while you wait' appointment on the 4th July.
Didn't even get chance to mention H441. "Hi, I got an I-Pace subject to the " "Ah yes, lets see when we can fit you in."
Not used this dealer before so hope the appointment goes as well as the booking in process.

That’s great. My dealer said best to throw caution to the wind in case a replacement part is required etc. They will also charge it to see how it goes. So I have a loan car. Never driven a Ranger Rover Evoque. It’s pushed the booking out to late July though. Without a loaner they could book me in next week but I want to keep mobile.

Had mine updated for H441 today. After the update the battery version shows BS-AAE-BC-AC-BE in the car (CK-AAE-BC-AC-BE before). Telematics and infotainment version did not change.

Any noticeable impact on charging observed so far?
