Fix Dealers will replace the instrument panel, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed December 4, 2024. Owners may contact Nikola customer service at 1-888-268-1181. Nikola's number for this recall is 24VDC0903.

Two numbers, one recall

Every safety recall carries two identifiers. 24VDC0903 is the number Nikola assigned in its own system: it is what appears on the owner letter, on the dealer’s service screen and on the repair order. 24V844000 is the number NHTSA filed the same recall under when the manufacturer reported it, and it is the one every federal record, this site included, is keyed on.

The repair is free by federal law for vehicles up to fifteen years old. Whether one particular vehicle is included is settled by its VIN against the manufacturer’s build list, not by its model year.
