Narrative

Jaguar I-Pace was being charged, at home, using the 220v charging system. The charging unit had been in use with this vehicle for 5.5 years. On July 4, 2024 at 11:53 am, white smoke was observed coming from underneath the car. The charger was disconnected from the car. The fire department arrived and moved the car away from the house. At that time no smoke was visible and an infrared detector showed no heat. Approximately 1/2 hour later the car burst into flames, from underneath the car, just before the rear tire. The car was consumed in flames before the fire department could put the flames out.
