2024 Jaguar I-PaceRecalls, problems, MPG & safety

“On October 7, 2026, I experienced a serious safety issue as a passenger in a Waymo autonomous vehicle. The ride began at approximately 8:16 AM and was estimated to take 13 minutes. Instead, it lasted about 41 minutes because the vehicle repeatedly failed to reach the intended destination, rerouted itself, and circled the surrounding area multiple times. I contacted Waymo Rider Support several times because the vehicle was not reaching the correct drop-off location. Support attempted to assist with navigation, but the problem continued. The most serious issue occurred when I repeatedly requested that the vehicle stop so I could exit. I told Rider Support that I wanted to end the ride and get out. After support attempted to verbally navigate the vehicle, I again requested that it stop at a safe location so I could exit and walk the remaining distance. The vehicle continued moving after I requested to stop and exit. At that point, I repeatedly yelled for the vehicle to stop and let me out because I did not feel I had control over when I could leave the vehicle. The vehicle eventually stopped and unlocked the doors. There was no collision or impact. No emergency…”

“On July 25, 2026, at approximately 7:10 PM, I was a passenger in a fully autonomous Waymo vehicle traveling southbound near 24th Street and Southern Avenue in Phoenix, Arizona. The vehicle entered the intersection to make a left turn and, while still in the active intersection, unexpectedly reversed. I considered this a serious safety concern because of the potential risk to surrounding traffic. Fortunately, there was no collision or injury. I reported the incident directly to Waymo and subsequently followed up, asking them to review the vehicle’s video and driving data. Approximately six weeks have passed, and Waymo has not responded to me regarding the incident. I am reporting this to NHTSA so the automated-driving behavior can be documented and reviewed as a potential vehicle safety issue.”
