3G SHUTDOWN
FAQ
U.S. Telecommunication providers are discontinuing 3G cellular network and transitioning to 4G and 5G. Your vehicle, like millions of others built at that time, utilizes the available-at-the time 3G cellular network to provide a variety of phone-based connected features, such as emergency calling and stolen vehicle tracking.
As a result of the 3G discontinuation, Jaguar will be providing a new cellular service to be able to maintain important features. Other features unfortunately will no longer function. Please see below for the details for your vehicle.
