NHTSA Recall 24V963000
Filed by Orange EV. Component: Exterior Lighting. Reported 2024-12-20. An estimated 37 vehicles are affected. Recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer.
Defect
Orange EV is recalling certain 2023-2024 e-TRIEVER and 2018-2023 T-Series trucks built with beavertail frames. The end of the beavertail frame may obstruct the center of the reverse lights. 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 reverse lights can reduce the vehicle's visibility to pedestrians or other drivers, increasing the risk of a crash.
What the manufacturer will do
Owners are advised to limit on-road use while operating without a trailer until the remedy is completed. Orange EV will replace and relocate the reverse lights, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed August 15, 2025. Owners may contact Orange EV customer service at 1-866-688-5223.
