Problem Xos, Inc. (Xos) is recalling certain 2021-2022 SV05 Stepvan vehicles. The tire and loading information label has an incorrect front gross axle weight rating, which could lead to an unintentional overloading of the vehicle. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard numbers 120, "Wheels and Rims-Other than Passenger Car," and 49 CFR Part 567, "Certification." Risk An overloaded vehicle can increase the risk of a crash. Fix Xos will mail replacement labels to owners, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed April 6, 2023. Owners may contact Xos customer service at 1-818-316-1890. Xos's number for this recall is REC 001-23.

Two numbers, one recall

Every safety recall carries two identifiers. REC 001-23 is the number XOS assigned in its own system: it is what appears on the owner letter, on the dealer’s service screen and on the repair order. 23V127000 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.
