Problem Orange EV (OEV) is recalling certain 2023-2024 HUSK-e, 2023-2025 e-TRIEVERs, and 2018-2023 T-Series trucks built with frame extenders. The frame extenders obstruct the rear turn signals, reverse, brake, and taillights. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment." Risk Obstructed rear lights can reduce the vehicle's visibility to pedestrians or other drivers, increasing the risk of a crash. Fix Owners are advised to limit on-road use while operating without a trailer until the remedy is completed. OEV will relocate the rear taillights and replace the original with combination lights, free of charge. Interim owner notification letters explaining the safety risk were mailed February 21, 2025. A second notice will be sent once the remedy is available. Owners may contact OEV customer service at 1-866-688-5223.

Two numbers, one recall

Every safety recall carries two identifiers. 2024-SRC-04 is the number Orange EV assigned in its own system: it is what appears on the owner letter, on the dealer’s service screen and on the repair order. 24V964000 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.

Check one specific vehicle

Both lookups check a VIN against the manufacturer’s own list and say whether the repair is still outstanding on that vehicle.
