Jaguar Land Rover Fires Whistleblower Over Safety of Electric Cars

"Shut Up!" they explained. Jaguar Land Rover electric car whistleblower sacked

The problems in question were not at Jaguar Land Rover (JLR), but they were perfectly happy to fire a whistleblower. They are apparently worried he might expose any problems at JLR. As Mr. H says in the video below, "Stop making sh*t cars, then."

The BBC has seen evidence the multinational corporation that owns Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) arranged for a whistleblower to be sacked for raising concerns about the safety of electric cars it designed.

Confidential emails between executives at Tata Group reveal they retaliated against mechanical engineer Hazar Denli for posting concerns on Reddit that lives were being put at risk. He was then blacklisted.

The company was producing cars with parts the could fail, and were failing. Parts of the suspension that, when they failed, caused drivers to lose control of their vehicles and crash. People were dying.

Mr Denli, a specialist in chassis design, was appointed to lead the engineering team working on the car's front suspension and chassis from September 2022, halfway through a design and testing phase he says had an unusually tight timetable.

He soon became concerned VinFast was cutting corners with safety, keeping costs down by employing a small team of inexperienced engineers.

His concerns grew when he heard three of his predecessors had quit after short spells on the project.

He tried to raise concerns internally, but there was a stock deal in the works, so he quit.

VinFast, which was preparing to sell shares in itself and raise funds by floating on the New York Stock Exchange, instead pushed ahead with production.

And people are dying in those cars.

Then on 24 April this year, a family-of-four was killed in a crash in Pleasanton, California. Police reported the vehicle lost control, veered off the road, hit a pole and caught fire.

When Mr Denli went public with the problems at VinFast, and VinFast figured out who made the public statements, they contacted his new employer, JLR, and got him fired.
